Remove DHCP setting

Most users have an existing DHCP Server on their network and will not want to use the DHCP Server in
the cellular modem if it is enabled. Depending on your firmware version, the cellular modem may be
configured to act as a DHCP Server. With newer firmware DHCP will already be disabled.
SETUP > DHCP Configuration
Newer firmware should show "Disabled" for the status of the interface of your local IP address (IPV4).
If DHCP is enabled (IPV4), edit the DHCP setting using the pencil icon if it is visible.

Uncheck "Enabled"

If DHCPv6 and Router Advertisement is enabled you should be able to leave this enabled.

CELLULAR > Cellular Configuration

Restart the device

SAVE AND RESTART > then click [OK] to restart the cellular modem

Move Ethernet cable from computer to network switch

You can now unplug the Ethernet cable from your computer and attach it to your network (e.g. a
switch). Once the cellular modem is connected to your network and has restarted you can log back into
the web configuration using
http://ipaddress or https://ipaddress
where ipaddress is the new IP address assigned in the setup wizard. Remember to use the new admin
password that you assigned in setup wizard.

Upgrade firmware to version 5.2.1

In order to ensure compatibly between TopView and the modem, we recommend upgrading only to the
versions stated in this document. If your modem is at least this version, you can skip this step.
