3G USB modem on RouterOS

RouterOS General
1

Go through these steps:

  1. is your usb modem supported by ROS?
  2. did you plug it in and do you see ppp-out1 interface?
  3. did you set the correct data channel and info channel in ppp-out1 properties?
  4. did you set correct APN name in properties?
  5. last but not least, did you add nat rule?
/ip firewall nat add action=masquerade chain=srcnat disabled=no out-interface=ppp-out1
