The E392 supports the following standards:

Long Term Evolution（LTE）

High-speed packet access (HSPA+)

Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS)

Enhanced data rates for global evolution (EDGE)

General packet radio service (GPRS)

Global system for mobile communications (GSM)
The E392 provides the following services:

LTE packet data service

HSPA+ packet data service

HSUPA packet data service

HSDPA/UMTS packet data service

EDGE/GPRS packet data service

WCDMA/GSM Short Message Service (SMS)

Prepared for LTE Short Message Service (SMS) over SGs, but not activated.
You can connect the E392 with the USB interface of a computer. In the service area of
the LTE/HSPA+/UMTS/EDGE/GPRS/GSM network, you can surf the Internet and
send/receive messages/emails cordlessly. The E392 is fast, reliable, and easy to
operate. Thus, mobile users can experience many new features and services with the
E392. These features and services will enable a large number of users to use the
E392 and the average revenue per user (ARPU) of operators will increase
substantially.

3 Services and Applications
3.1 Packet Data Service
The E392 supports the PS domain data service based on LTE/HSPA+/UMTS
/EDGE/GPRS
After you connect the E392 to a PC with the USB interface, the E392 driver and the
client software are installed on the PC automatically. Dual APN is supported in LTE
mode. A default APN will be used at initial attach to LTE. The other APN is use like
normal APN in 2G/3G. You can configure APN through the E392 application (or
directly use the default settings) and set up a network connection. Then you can send
or receive E-mail, access the network through wireless connection, and download
files through wireless data channels.
To use the data service, perform the following steps:
1.
Enter *99# or *98# to launch the packet data service.
2.
In the Choose Connection Type dropdown box, choose a network type.
3.2 SMS
The E392 supports message writing/sending/receiving and group sending on
GSM/EGDE/UMTS network. As long as SMS over SGs is not activated for LTE, so no
messages can be sent/or received on LTE, and the messages can only be stored. You
can manage messages through the dashboard, such as sorting the messages by
telephone number or time.
