The GC3 wireless security system is one of the latest models offered by 2GIG. It provides comprehensive security for your home or business.

The security system requires a cellular radio to function properly. It does come with one right out of the box.

However, the stock radio doesn’t work for everyone. If you live in an area with special wireless needs, then you might need to invest in an aftermarket cellular radio.

The 2GIG 3GA-A-GC3 cellular radio is the best option for those that live in an area with strong AT&T coverage. It connects to the AT&T network.

Our video shows you exactly how to install the 3GA-A-GC3. It starts by explaining the reasons to do this – if you’re in an area with strong AT&T network coverage.

The video then goes on to explain how to properly power down your 2GIG GC3 so as not to ruin the device during the installation process.

Once disconnected, the video shows you how to open the device’s back panel, remove the old cellular radio, and install the new 2GIG 3GA-A-GC3 model.

Though the 3GA-A-GC3 does come with a written instruction manual, our video instructions are much easier to follow.

Our video explains the necessity of writing down the IMEI number of your cellular radio. Once the new cellular radio is installed, you can contact your alarm provider with the IMEI number. It enables them to remotely activate your new cellular radio.

The 3GA-A-GC3 cellular radio is also unique in that it allows you to connect your smartphone or computer to the GC3. Of course, a connection to central station is also available.

Once the new cellular radio is installed, our video shows you how to navigate to “System Settings” and then “Cellular Radio Swap.” This, along with sending your IMEI number to your alarm provider, will ensure the 2GIG GC3 functions smoothly.

Finally, our video tutorial explains how to test that the swap worked correctly. It’s pivotal to make sure the new radio works so that you’re not left without service in the event of an emergency.

The 2GIG 3GA-A-GC3 cellular radio is only one of the additional cellular radio options. You can also replace the stock radio with two other aftermarket models, the 2GIG CDMAV-A-GC3 or the 2GIG 3GR-A-GC3.

The 2GIG CDMAV-A-GC3 is a Verizon cellular radio. If you live in an area with dominant Verizon coverage, this is likely your best choice.

The 2GIG 3GR-A-GC3 is a Rogers cellular radio. If you live in an area with dominant Rogers coverage, this is likely your best choice.
