G. Log into the EN-2000
1On the computer, open a web browser. In the browser’s address
field (URL field), type the EN-2000’s default LAN IP address
(192.168.10.1) and press the Enter key.
❖The browser displays the EN-2000 Management System Log-In
Screen. If the user name (admin) is not displayed, type it.
2Type the password (encore!1). Then press the console’s Enter
key or select the screen’s button to Log In (located below the
entry fields).
❖The EN-2000 management screens open.
3Select the management system’s Quickstart tab.
4Configure the EN-2000 for its role in the network. For details, see
the EN-2000™ Quick Configuration Guide.
H. Log out of the EN-2000
To close the EN-2000 management session, select the tab to Log Out.
If the management system is unattended for several minutes, the
session will log out automatically. To resume management, log in again.
Note: The EN-2000 remains active and continues its network
functions, regardless of management access.
Verizon Wireless has certified the EN-2000™ for use in its 4G LTE networks.

C. Install the SIM
Use a Mini SIM (2FF Subscriber Identity Module) for your
Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Account.
1Make sure the EN-2000 is not connected to a power source.
2Connect antennas to the ports labeled MAIN and AUX. (Get
antennas from your EN-2000 distributor.)
3Insert your Verizon Wireless 4G LTE SIM into the SIM socket on the
front of the EN-2000 chassis. Make sure the SIM’s notched corner
is the left corner going into the SIM socket.
Note: Push the SIM in just far enough to catch. (If you need to
remove the SIM, press it again. It will pop forward so that you can
remove it.)
D. Connect the Antennas
1Connect antennas to the ports labeled MAIN and AUX on the front
of the EN-2000 chassis, to support the cellular wireless module.
2If your EN-2000 also uses a 5 GHz 802.11 wireless module,
connect antennas to the ports labeled WIFI on the back of the
EN-2000 chassis.

E. Connect and Start the EN-2000
1Connect an Ethernet cable between the computer’s Ethernet port
and the Local Area Network port (the LAN port) on the front of the
EN-2000.
2Connect other cables to the EN-2000 ports as needed for the
EN-2000’s functions in the network.
3Connect the EN-2000’s AC adaptor to the chassis; then plug the
adaptor into an AC wall outlet.
❖The EN-2000 powers up. If the account is active and has a good
cell signal, the SIM will probably be registered within an
hour (usually within 10 minutes). The Cell LED indicates signal
strength and registration status. (For LED patterns, see the Quick
Guide to EN-2000™ LED Codes.)
F. EN-2000 Factory Defaults
By default, if there is an Ethernet WAN connection, the EN-2000
functions as a failover router for Ethernet WAN to cellular 4G LTE. If
there is no Ethernet WAN cable, the EN-2000 acts as a cellular 4G LTE
broadband router.
The LAN port (IP address 192.168.10.1) is a DHCP server, and the WAN
port is a DHCP client. The cellular wireless module gets its IP address
from the carrier.
If the factory default configuration for the EN-2000’s operation is
sufficient, you may not need to use the remaining sections of this quick
guide for the router to be operational.
Note: If the EN-2000 needs to be set to the factory default configura-
tion for any reason, the front panel Reset button can be pushed. The
sequence is described on the final page of the EN-2000™ Quick Config-
uration Guide.
