Summary
If you are interested in using an MMH Wireless FusionSIM M-Series Multi-carrier Cellular Data Plan, you will need to configure your router’s cellular modem to connect to it. This guide will walk you through how to connect and maintain a stable connection.
Enable InControl
Before proceeding, you’ll need to confirm that InControl is enabled on your router. Please ensure your router is configured as shown below:
Turning on your FusionSIM
FusionSIM requires your router to be running the most current firmware version. Please ensure your router is fully updated before proceeding. If you need assistance updating your firmware, follow this guide: Updating Peplink Firmware
Once your router is up to date, navigate to the Dashboard tab and click the Cellular Details button for the modem you wish to connect to your FusionSIM plan.
Scroll down to the SIM Card section under Cellular Settings.
Check the box labeled FusionSIM to enable it.
You can use the horizontal scroller to scroll past SIM A and SIM B on the screen to get to the FusionSIM section. The settings below are not needed for activation and connecting, but may be beneficial (for example, if you want to control band selection on the FusionSIM):
Connecting to your FusionSIM
There are several ways to establish your connection to FusionSIM, and all of them require another active internet source during the initial setup. This secondary connection is mandatory, as FusionSIM cannot bring the router online by itself. Your Peplink must already have basic internet access for FusionSIM to authenticate and connect.
You can establish that initial connection using one of the following methods:
Option 1:
Place FusionSIM and your other available internet sources together in Priority 1.
Having multiple WAN sources in the same priority will provide the internet access needed to activate FusionSIM. This method is ideal if you plan to keep multiple connections active simultaneously for load balancing, redundancy, or SpeedFusion.
Option 2:
You can also connect to FusionSIM using the Priority system on your Dashboard. In this method, your other internet source simply needs to be placed in any active (non-disabled) priority. As long as that connection brings the router online, FusionSIM will be able to establish its link.

Option 3:
You can also place FusionSIM in Priority 1 and your other non-FusionSIM internet source in Priority 2. In this configuration, the router will cycle through attempting FusionSIM first, then the secondary internet source, and finally complete its full connection back to FusionSIM once the link is established.

Please Note the Following About Connecting to FusionSIM:
FusionSIM requires time to establish its link. After powering on and beginning the connection process, please allow up to 15 minutes for the system to fully authenticate and come online.
FusionSIM also requires another internet source to remain connected. As shown above, this backup source can stay in standby and only needs to provide a very small amount of data (just a few KBs). Even extremely slow connections or small data plans work perfectly for this purpose.
