How to Join a Private/Closed Network?

[Keegan Veldsman]

Hi,

I have a nRF9160 DK and Iam trying to join my Private NB-IoT network that my company has (So I can get a static IP). I have the NB-IoT activated Nano SIM and the credentials for my APN but when looking through the AT commands for the module I cant see what AT command I need to use to set my APN Password and Username.

Command to set APN Name:

AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","APN Name"

Command to set APN credentials:

?

Command to Connect:

AT+CGACT=1,1 

At the moment my device is joining the public NB-IoT network based on the IP range Iam getting for the SIM.

Hello, 

Did you see the AT+CGAUTH command? This should be similar to:

AT+CGAUTH=1,1,"username","password"

Kind regards,

Øyvind

Hi, 

Thanks I had a look and it seems like I was using the older version of the nRF91 AT Commands Manual (v0.9.1) which doesn't have that command, I googled a bit and found a newer manual v1.0 which does have that command. 

Thank you, my device now is online with its static IP.
