Note: Tieline codecs require firmware version 1.6.98 or higher to connect using the Tieline USB module and 4G LTE USB modems. Click to watch the video at https://youtu.be/qdcAhqLuU28 

Compatible USB modems include:

  • Pantech® 4G LTE USB Modem UML290
  • Verizon Wireless™ 4G LTE USB Modem 551L

WARNING: From April 2015 Tieline no longer supports the use of these modems due to customers encountering connection problems when using them. In the US we currently recommend using a Cradlepoint wireless router.

  1. Power down the codec and open up a module slot.
  2. Carefully slide the USB module into the module slot until it fits firmly into place.
  3. Attach your compatible 4G LTE USB modem to the USB slot on the USB module.

  5. Once the codec is powered up, use the black rotary Menu Selector to place the square brackets around [3GIP1], then press the “Wiz” button.
  6. Select “OK” to proceed, then use the Menu Selector to place the square brackets around “3G /UMTS IP” and select “OK” again.
  7. Next, select the access point for your network provider. Select “Verizon LTE” to use the 4G LTE modem network.
  8. When this has been configured press “OK”, then select by “Exit.”
