Entering the SIM card and connecting the router For establishing a connection, you need at least one SIM card of your network provider (not included in the delivery scope). Using only one SIM card you can insert this either in the internal SIM card holder SIM 1 or in the from outside accessible SIM card holder SIM 2.

Mounting With the DIN rail holder mounted on the alpha LTE/UMTS 4/EDGE HS, it is possible to attach the alpha LTE/UMTS 4/EDGE HS on a DIN rail TS35 according to DIN EN 60715. The rubber feet that are included in delivery can be stick under the housing, so it‘s pos- sible to use the alpha LTE/UMTS 4/EDGE HS as desktop device (the DIN rail holder can dismount after loosening the back plate).
Putting into operation and indications Two operating modes are supported: 1. Router: The unit serves as broadband router 2. PPPoE: The unit serves as modem with PPPoE interface Required software drivers: In the operating mode PPPoE, a PPPoE driver has to be installed and activated on the PC which is connected to the alpha LTE/UMTS 4/EDGE HS.
For safety reasons, you should use HTTPS for the communication with the web interface since the data is transmitted encoded this way. The web interface serves for the configuration, the control and the update of the alpha LTE/UMTS 4/EDGE HS. For access to the web interface, all current browsers in their latest version are suitable.
Network configuration Please note: Network settings should only be carried out with appropriate knowledge of the network technology since, in the worst case, the alpha LTE/UMTS 4/EDGE HS will not be accessible over the network anymore or it is possible to get network errors. Before activating a configuration, write down all new settings as well as the old settings in order to be able to go back to these, if necessary.
2. Static In this configuration, IP address and network mask have to be given. These settings have to be written down since the web interface can only be accessed by these settings. 3. DHCP server (only with static IP address possible) In this configuration, the alpha LTE/UMTS 4/EDGE HS can assign IP addresses via DHCP itself.
With a connected LINUX PC a serial device like /dev/ttyACMx will exist, allowing link with a terminal program (e.g. minicom). You need a driver for Windows. It can be installed with the file linux-cdc-acm.inf. Getting this driver on FMN website under „Downloads“ or on the USB mass storage device of the router (see below).
By choosing „Mass storage“ it is possible to access the devices memory via USB. This function is for changing the routers configuration and transferring needed data to this device. With button „Loading“ the files (umts.cfg, cert.pem, openvpncert.pkcs12, openvpncacert.pem, openvpncert.crt, openvpncert.key) will be loaded. Than they can be edited and copied.
(WAN), this port has to be activated in router mode in the firewall. The data can be called via telnet <IP> <Port>. Update Updates are provided by the manufacturer FMN communications GmbH and can be downloaded over the web interface. Activated antivirus software can constrain update.
