Description
There have been reports of instability when using a Verizon Pantech UML290 3G/4G modem with a FortiGate.  The modem sometimes disconnects and reconnects on its own.

Solution
The problem is caused by the modem switching randomly from 3G to 4G or vice-versa due to instability in the provider network. The solution for this problem is to lock the modem to operates only in 3G mode or only in 4G mode instead of allowing the modem to auto-detect the mode.

To obtain the procedure how to lock down the connection in 3G or 4G only mode, please contact your modem provider.
