I’ve run through the :mangOH® Red Getting Started Guide (non-Octave)" tutorial exactly, but it doesn’t seem to be communicating to the redCloud. Here are the particulars:  
root@swi-mdm9x15:~# cm data  
Index: 1  
APN: [internet.sierrawireless.com](http://internet.sierrawireless.com)  
PDP Type: IPV4

Setting up profile 1  
Connecting … failed  
Sun Jan 6 17:33:02 UTC 1980 - Connection Failure: LE\_FAULT  
root@swi-mdm9x15:~# cm radio  
Power: ON  
Current Network Operator:  
Current RAT: Module not registered on network, RAT not available  
Status: Not registered and not currently searching for new operator (LE\_MRC\_REG\_NONE)  
Signal: No signal strength (0)  
PS: Packet Switched Unknown state (LE\_MRC\_REG\_UNKNOWN)

Why is the module not registered on network?  
Also, on the AirVantage Platform dashboard, the IMEI/ESN number is completely different from the IMEI number I entered. Isn’t it supposed to be the same, or is this something different?

What do you mean the IMEI/ESN is different? Could you please elaborate?

Here’s what the device reports for the IMEI and is what I entered when registering the device in AirVantage:  
root@swi-mdm9x15:~# cm info  
Device: WP7502  
IMEI: 357851070003871  
IMEISV: 30

MCU Version: 002.004  
PRI Part Number (PN): 9906352

Carrier PRI Revision: 001.042\_000

Last Reset Cause: Unknown  
Resets Count: Expected: 0 Unexpected: 0

And here is what the AirVantage Platform dashboard reports:  
IMEI/ESN 222013094589948

Isn’t the IMEI from the device and the IMEI/ESN in AirVantage supposed to be the same? I’m just wondering if this has anything to do with my connection problem.

It supposed to be the same…  
Did you enter your module IMEI while registering?

Seems like you entered your IMSI and not your IMEI…

No, I’m sure I entered the correct IMEI number, besides the IMSI doesn’t match up either. 208240001328851 vs. 222013094589948.

Do I terminate the device in AirVantage and start over? I get the following warning before actually going through with it:

#### Danger zone

You are about to terminate **mangOH 89332401000004679250**. Termination is **irreversible** and will render your System permanently unusable. This operation is going to attempt to terminate the Subscription 89332401000004679250. There is no undo. Do you really want to terminate **mangOH 89332401000004679250**?

Is this the first time you have registered a unit? @jbartol can you work this user?

Yes, I don’t know why it came out differently. I would need to terminate the unit before re-registering. Is it okay to do this, or will I run into other issues as well?
