4. QUICK PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
4.1 UNBOX YOUR WILOW IOT 4G GATEWAY
Wilow IOT Gateway is available in three versions:
•WILOW-IOT-GATEWAY-4G-MPWR, Mains Power supply
•WILOW-IOT-GATEWAY-4G-WDS-MPWPR, Mains power supply, WDS function
•WILOW-IOT-GATEWAY-4G-SOLAR, Solar Power Supply WILOW-IOT-GATEWAY-4G-SOLAR, with
Solar Power Supply
The difference between the Mains power version and the solar panel version, is that the WDS function is
only available on the Mains power version.
So users who works with the solar power supply version canot use the WIFI bridge because there is no
WDS options which is available.
It is provided with a 4G/LTE antenna, WiFi antenna, external cables for both WiFi & 4G/LTE antennas and
a power supply plug
4.2 ACCESSORIES DESCRIPTION
In addition to the WiLow® IoT gateway you will find inside the packet a list of accessories:
•4G/LTE Antenna
•WiFi Antenna
•External cable for Wifi antenna
•External cable for 4G/LTE antenna
•Power supply plug

If the DC Voltage is less than 13VDC, the provided voltage will not be enough to power the
Solar Power Manager
2. Use the provided antennas cables and power supply cable to connect to the appropriate connectors
as shown below in the figure.
3. Open the box enclosure and use the Ethernet cable to connect your Laptop to the router in order to
configure the IoT Gateway and get it ready for remote monitoring, as well to insert SIM card. Use a

•Double click on Internet Protocol Version4 (TCP/IPv4)
•Enter the flowing settings:
✓Enter any ip in the form of 192.168.1.XXX where XXX is a number from 2to 254 (except 243
which is the router IP address).
✓Enter 255.255.255.0 for your subnet mask
✓The default gateway must come with the same IP address that your 4G Router has
192.168.1.243
✓Finally enter primary DNS server IP , the same than your 4G Router IP 192.168.1.243
✓Click on OK validate your configuration

You can get the APN ID from your telecom operator provider
If an invalid PIN number was entered (i.e. the entered PIN does not match the one that was used
to protect the SIM card), your SIM card will get blocked. To avoid such mishaps, it is highly recommended
to use an unprotected SIM. If it happens and you insert a protected SIM and the PIN number is incorrect,
your card won’t get blocked immediately, although after a couple of reboots OR configuration saves it
will.
7.2 MAKE SURE THAT THE DHCP SERVER IS ENABLED IN YOUR ROUTER
LAN IP address should be 192.168.243 by default and if this is not the case for whatever reason ,you will
need to set it back to 192.168.1.243 in the configuration panel you can find it in the overview page
