AC779S firmware "update" to allow docking with DC112A docking cradle
Hi all, After finding out that I can use my Aircard 779S with the DC112A, I have docked it tonight, but the aircard does not "give up" its hotspot to the docking cradle. To provide more detail, ...
Same issue here. Just got my cradle and attempted to use it with the hotspot. Cradle never picks up an IP address. I checked that the hotspot works fine when connected to a computer to validate that the USB port works fine and it does. Also, if I set the hotspot to turn off wifi when connected to a computer it disables the wifi when it is docked. It also charges when on the dock. This does seem to be a firmware issue either on the cradle or the hotspot. There may also be a config in the advanced setup on the hotspot that allows/disallows cradle attachment. I can't see it though because I don't have the MSL code to access the advanced screens. Can aynone here confirm whether that setting exists?
