First Use
Before applying power to the router, connect the components that you required for your
applications. You cannot operate the router without a connected antenna, inserted SIM card,
nor a connected power supply. Cross-shaped screwdriver is necessary to insert a SIM card.
If you do not have connected the main antenna during operation of the router, the router
can be damaged!
1. Antenna
Use TNC connectors to connect the antennas to the router. The main antenna is connected
to the router by screwing on the ANT connector (see the figure below). The second diversity
antenna can also be connected to the DIV connector to improve performance.

Configuration
1. Configuring the Device Using the Web Browser
You can access the router for status monitoring, configuration, and administration after en-
tering the IP address of the router into a Web browser. The default IP address is 192.168.1.1
(netmask 255.255.255.0). Configuration access is allowed for the user root. The default pass-
word is printed on the router’s label.1Attention, it is necessary to use HTTPS protocol for
secure communication over a network! For a detailed description and examples of the router
configurations, see the Configuration Manual.
Important Notes
After logging on to the device for the first time, we strongly recommend changing the
default password due to security reasons.
For security reasons, it is highly recommended to update the firmware of the router to the
latest version regularly. Downgrading the firmware to an older version than the production
version or uploading a firmware intended for a different device may cause the malfunction
of the device.
2. Configuration Settings via WebAccess/DMP
Your router has been pre-installed with the WebAccess/DMP client. If you enable it in
the router’s web interface, you may configure the router from WebAccess/DMP. Navigate your
browser to:
https://www.wadmp.com
If this is your first time, please self-sign-up with the site. If not, please login with your
username and password. Once logged in, further assistance can be found here:

3. Restoring and Backing up the Router Configuration
After you reset the router, the current configuration is overwritten by the default settings.
We recommend that you back up the router configuration before resetting the device. Refer to
the Configuration Manual for more information.
When the PWR LED starts blinking, it is possible to restore the default configuration of
the router by pressing the RST button on the front panel of the router. Note that the RST
button is located under the cover – unscrew the cover. After pressing this button, the default
configuration is restored and then the router reboots (green LED will be on).
1If the router’s label does not contain a unique password, use the password "root".
