Device initialization

When the unit is powered-up, the POWER indicator illuminates and the unit initiates a series of
diagnostic self tests. During this process one or more of the other indicators flashes to indicate that
the unit is busy. When the flashing stops, the unit has completed its self-test diagnostics and is ready
to be configured.

Configuration

Once the unit is installed and powered up, you must configure it to communicate with the LAN and
WAN. Use either the Command Line Interface (CLI) or the web interface. We recommend the web
interface, which you can access via a web browser (Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Chrome).
Note
You will not be able to use the unit for remote communication until you have subscribed to a
mobile/cellular wireless network service.

Network settings

The default IP address for the LAN port is 192.168.1.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. The unit
has a DHCP server enabled by default which can assign an appropriate IP address to your PC if the PC
is configured to get an IP address automatically. You can also manually configure your PC to be on the
192.168.1.x network. For example, you can use the IP address 192.168.1.2 and subnet mask of
255.255.255.0. Make sure that the unit does not conflict with other devices that may already be on the
network.

Web interface

Follow these steps to log into the web interface and launch the Getting Started Wizard to configure
the device. To configure the communication settings via command line interface, see
interface
(CLI).
1. Connect to the web interface: Open a web browser (Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Chrome) on
your PC and navigate to http://192.168.1.1. If successful, you will be prompted to enter a
username and password. The default username is "username," and the default password is
"password." After you log in, we recommended that you immediately change the default
username and password.
