US Cellular Ghost - Register Network Failed

Follow
Chris Walker

I have a US Cellular Ghost cam that isn't connecting to the network. It tells me "Register Network Failed please check SIM card and restart." I also cannot access any of the diagnostic tools as it says the "System is Busy." The camera was working fine a couple of days ago and using the same class 10 SD card.

I called US Cellular and my account and lines are both active and they even sent a refresh signal to the line. I tried resetting the camera to default as well with no luck.

Any ideas on what else I can try?

    Format the SD card in the camera. Try a different SD card.

    You can see if the APN setting can be changed.

    With the camera in setup mode, on the camera, press the Menu button, fourth menu tab, Diagnostic, APN Setting, password is 123456, OK. (ATTb/ATTi password is 1234)

    If the camera says "System busy", just wait until it says it can't go online and then you should be able to get in.

    US Cellular: choices are APNBL, APNEN, and APNIN. (There have been two different, although similar, sets of instructions. Try the first and if that doesn’t work, try the second.)

    1. Ignore APNBL, choose whichever of the other two it isn't already and click the OK button.
    2. Alternate: choose APNIN, and click the OK button. If the setting was already on APNIN, choose APNBL and click the OK button.

    Changing the APN setting to APNEN from APNIN worked. It took several attempts for it to allow me to access the APN settings. Thank you for your help
