Thrane and Thrane have identified a problem with all Thrane and Thrane BGAN and FleetBroadband that causes User Terminals to attempt to access the Inmarsat network via an incorrect regional beam, resulting in failure to register. Users within the I-4 Asia Pacific region are directly affected and those travelling to I-4 Asia Pacific should also be aware of the need to upgrade.

Please note that no other manufacturer or terminal is affected.

More information on this release can be found in the Technical Bulletin document that is included in the download. This release will be available for download within one week through the LaunchPad update feature.
