First Use

Before applying power to the router, connect all the components that you need for your

applications.

Do not run the router without an antenna connected to the main antenna connector as the

energy from the transmission is effectively reﬂected by the open end and can damage

the equipment.

1. Antenna

Use an SMA connectors to connect the antennas to the router, see the ﬁgure below. The

main antenna is connected to the ANT connector. The second diversity antenna can be

connected to the DIV connector to improve the quality and reliability of a wireless link.

2. SIM card

The SIM card reader for two Mini SIM cards (2FF with size of 25.0 x 15.0 x 0.76 mm)

is located on the rear panel of the router. If you intend to use this device to communicate

over a cellular network, please place an activated data-provisioned SIM card into the SIM card

reader. Push your SIM card into the SIM1 or SIM2 slot until it clicks into place. You can install

two SIM cards simultaneously to utilize the SIM card switching feature.

QSG-0002-EN, August 4, 2021 5Released in the Czech Republic

SmartStart

Disconnect the router from the power supply before handling the SIM card!

3. Power

The router requires an external DC power supply. The DC voltage required is between

+9 and +36 V DC. The router has built-in protection against reverse polarity without signaling.

Connect the power supply cable to the PWR connector on the front panel of the router, see

the ﬁgure below.

4. Ethernet

For an initial conﬁguration, made in a web browser, connect a PC by an Ethernet cable to

the default LAN interface, use the ETH port, see the ﬁgure above. By default, this interface

has the following conﬁguration:

Connector Purpose Default Setting

ETH LAN port (default)

Connect your PC to this port to get the

router web interface.

DHCP Server

IP Address: 192.168.1.1

NetMask: 255.255.255.0

Conﬁguration

1. Conﬁguring the Device Using the Web Browser

You can use a web browser running on your PC to get access to the router web interface.

Here you can perform router monitoring, conﬁguration, and administration. First, connect

the PC to the default LAN interface as described in the Ethernet chapter. To get the router

interface, enter the https://192.168.1.1 address in a web browser. Please note that usage

of the HTTPS protocol for secure communication over the network is required.

By default, there is just the root user account created on the router. See the product

label on the router for its default password1. Log in to the web interface by the root user

and his password. See the conﬁguration manual of the router for a detailed description and

examples of the router conﬁguration.

2. Conﬁguration Settings via WebAccess/DMP

Your router has been pre-installed with the WebAccess/DMP client. For its activation,

enable it in the router’s web interface (Customization -> User Modules -> WebAccess/DMP

Client). For more information see the conﬁguration manual of your router.

The activated client periodically uploads router identiﬁcators, its conﬁguration, and cel-

lular network statistics to the WebAccess/DMP server. If you have purchased a part

number ending with "-SWH", the DMP client is activated by default.

1If the label does not contain a unique password, use "root" string as the password.

QSG-0002-EN, August 4, 2021 7Released in the Czech Republic

SmartStart

With the WebAccess/DMP client activated, you may conﬁgure the router from WebAc-

cess/DMP portal. Navigate your browser to https://www.wadmp.com.

If this is your ﬁrst time, please self-sign-up with the site. If not, please log in with your

username and password. Once logged in, further assistance can be found at https://docs.

wadmp.com.

3. Restoring and Backing up the Router Conﬁguration

If you reset the router, the current conﬁguration will be replaced by the default factory

settings. We recommend you to back up the router conﬁguration before resetting the device.

Refer to the conﬁguration manual for more information.

Once the router boots up and the PWR LED starts blinking, you can restore the default

router conﬁguration. To do so, press the RST button on the rear panel of the router. After you

press this button, all settings are reset to the default values, and the router will reboot.

After logging on to the device for the ﬁrst time, we strongly recommend changing the

default password due to security reasons. Simultaneously, you will gain access to all

functions of the router.

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.

First Use

Before applying power to the router, connect all the components that you need for your

applications. You cannot operate the router without a connected antenna, inserted SIM card,

nor a connected power supply.

Do not run the router without an antenna connected to the main antenna connector as the

energy from the transmission is effectively reﬂected by the open end and can damage

the equipment.

SmartFlex SR300 routers are not equipped with a cellular module, which means that SIM

card readers and antenna connectors are not available on the router.
