That's a huge help. Thanks.I've requested that he purchase a dynamic IP SIM as the instructions say only this type will send text messages (which is what the customer wants). Hoping this will go smoothly.

Hey folkes, Just wondering if someone with past experience in installing the ComGSM can help? Hindsight is an amazing thing... I'm an experienced engineer but have never installed this module before. We usually use DualComm or Redcare. The instructions seem straight forward, but specifically, when it comes to programming the "APN" or "Access Point Name", with a username and password. Do I need to take a laptop? You are supposedly to get these details from the SIM card provider (the customer is to supply). Is this fairly easy? Is there anywhere that I am likely to trip-up with not having installed one? Any helpful advice would be much appreciated. in advance dudes.

Hi All. I'm a security engineer from the Manchester area with 12 years experience. Which is probably nothing compared to some of you on here Thanks for having me. I hope you don't mind having your brains picked. Always good to have a helping hand every now and again. Feel free to pick mine if you wish. For what little is in there...
