Do you see an IP address? Congratulations! 🎉 You’ve successfully connected the SIM7070G to Monogoto.
A PING test can be performed to test if the modem has an active data connection with a mobile network.
When cellular modems are idle for a long period of time, cell towers might drop the data connection to save resources. Sending regular PINGs is a good method for testing the data connection, as well as for keeping the connection alive because the operator registers your device as being actively used.
Send 5 PINGs to IP address 8.8.8.8 with a timeout of 20 seconds.
If the connection is active, you will see 5 PINGs with a number representing the response time in milliseconds. Example response:
