DM Logging

This feature helps to capture modem logging to troubleshoot 4G data connectivity or performance issues.

Dual SIM Failover

This feature introduces the ability to failover to a secondary SIM in case of loss of connectivity to an active SIM.

Firmware Upgrade

This functionality introduces support to upload and upgrade firmware on the Cellular Gateway device. Modem firmware downgrade is not supported.
