FAQ

Q: My Carrier/APN setting wont connect

A: Because this project stemmed from a specific focus we do not have a large selection of APN/Carriers to choose from. Please send an e-mail with your APN and Carrier to [email protected] and we will provide you with a config within 24 business hours

Q: Features not working the way I want

A: Again, because this project stemmed from a specific focus it may not behave the way you would like. If you encounter any issues or missing configurability options please send an e-mail to [email protected] with your request and we will try our best to accomidate your issue

Q: This seems really clunk A: That's because it is. I built this entire thing from scratch for a specific need and have little coding experience in regards to linux. I promise I am working on making a more robust version, but until then please let me know your specific issue by either e-mailing me at [email protected] or commenting on our wordpress at arpie.jeymz.xyz. Please keep comments in the correct version area so we can isolate your requests with the corresponding releases
