Installing The Router - NetComm NTC-220 User Manual

Installing the router

After you have mounted the router and connected a power source, follow these steps to complete the installation
process.
1 Connect equipment that requires network access to the Ethernet port of your router. This may be your
computer for advanced configuration purposes, or your end equipment which requires data access via the
NTC-220 series router. You can connect one device directly, or several devices using a network switch.
2 The NTC-220 series router is shipped with caps on the Main, Auxiliary and GPS antenna sockets. To attach
the supplied antennas, first remove the antenna socket caps from the Main and Auxiliary antenna sockets by
turning them in an anti-clockwise direction, then screw the antennas onto the sockets by turning them in a
clockwise direction. Please refer to the Interfaces section for the antenna socket layout. If you have
purchased a GPS antenna, remove the socket cap from the GPS antenna socket and attach the antenna to
the socket in the same manner.
3 If your router does not come with a SIM pre-installed, insert a SIM card into the SIM card slot by pressing the
SIM Eject button to eject the SIM card tray. Place the SIM card in the tray and then insert the loaded tray into
the SIM slot with the gold side facing up, as shown below.
4 Ensure the external power source is switched on and wait 2 minutes for your NTC-220 series router to start
up and connect to the mobile network. Your router arrives with preconfigured settings that should suit most
customers. Your router is now connected. To check the status of your router, compare the LED indicators on
the device with those listed in the LED indicators table.
