-DRAFT: function & product not released yet.
-===== Trouble shooting =====
-^   ^ Step   ^  Details                                   ^
-| 1 | Power  | Check that the blue LED is either lit continuous or blinking  |
-| 2 | USB    | The modem must be connected to USB, and visible in the Settings -> GSM modem menu |
-| 3 | Simcard | (feature is still being added to the software) |

-| 5 | Network | Check that a network name is visible. If it is not, contact your simcard provider and/or insert the simcard in a phone to double check its operation
-=== Antenna reception interpretation ===
-Even when there is no simcard inserted, you can check signal strength.
-<code>
-= -113 dBm or less
-= -111 dBm
-= -109 .. -53 dBm
-= - 51dBm
-= not known or not detectable
--50 to -75 dBm: high signal
--76 to 90 dBm: medium signal
--91 to -100: low signal
--101 to -120 dBm poor signal
-</code>
-You also need to remember that an outdoor antenna typically increases received signal by 15 dB to 25 dB.  (verify)
-TODO: replace above by something meaning full, ie indicate the signal strenght to the user in such way that he doesn't need to memorize rssi or other tables.
