I’m Having Problems getting my Raven registered (activated or
provisioned) with Verizon, what could be the problem?
There are several error messages that might appear during the registration process:
• No Service
• Network Negotiation Failed
• Network Authentication Failed
These problems are frequently caused by account related issues. The problems
potentially involve an incorrectly configured account or incorrectly input/provi

sioned account information. The best troubleshooting step is to re-provision the
Raven, confirming the account is configured for the proper data plan and modem or
simply work with Verizon to create a new account.
Why Can’t I reach my Raven from the Internet? What is a Restricted
or Private IP?
On Verizon’s network, for security reasons, there are some accounts set up to be
restricted to communication only from other devices on their network, called a
Restricted IP or a Private IP. If you had two modems on Verizon’s network, they
could communicate, but your computer, not using Verizon as an ISP can’t. You
could generally still access the Internet using your Raven’s restricted or private IP
because the modem would use a proxy or gateway on Verizon’s network.
However, if you need to be able to contact your Raven (or the devices behind it)
directly, instead of a Restricted IP (also called Private IP or Non-Routable IP),
you will need to contact Verizon to get your account changed to an Unrestricted IP
(also called Public IP).
What is the difference between Private Mode and Public Mode?
When your Raven is powered on, ALEOS, acting as a PPP client, negotiates a PPP
session with Verizon’s network at the conclusion of which it is assigned an IP
address by Verizon . How this address is further acted upon by the modem is deter

mined by Private or Public Mode.
