M2M Cellular Gateway Chapter 2 Basic Network 2.1 WAN & Uplink The gateway provides multiple WAN interfaces to let all client hosts in Intranet of the gateway access the Internet via ISP. But ISPs in the world apply various connection protocols to let gateways or user's devices dial in ISPs and then link to the Internet via different kinds of transmit media.
M2M Cellular Gateway 2.1.1 Physical Interface M2M gateways are usually equipped with various WAN interfacess to support different WAN connection scenario for requirement. You can configure the WAN interface one by one to get proper internet connection setup. Refer to the product specification for the available WAN interfaces in the product you purchased. The first step to configure one WAN interface is to specify which kind of connection media to be used for the WAN connection, as shown in "Physical Interface"...
