4 Login and Network Access
4.1 Network Access via the Dialup Card
1. Insert the SIM card, connect the GNSS and cellular antennas, and connect the power supply and
PC. Insert the diversity dialup antenna when the dialup card has poor signals.
Note:
Before inserting or removing the SIM card, unplug the power cable; otherwise, the operation will
cause data loss or damage the gateway.
2. Assign an IP address to the PC, which is on the same network segment as the IP address of the
gateway.
Method 1: Enable the PC to obtain an IP address automatically (recommended).
Method 2: Configure a fixed IP address on the same network segment as the gateway address for the
PC.
Step: Select "Use the following IP address", enter any IP address in the range of 192.168.2.2 to
192.168.2.254 (different from the initial IP address 192.168.2.1 of the gateway), the subnet mask

3. Open the browser, enter the default IP address 192.168.2.1 of the gateway in the address bar, and
press Enter.
4. Log in (if a blocking prompt is displayed, click "Advanced >> Continue").
5. Click "Network >> Cellular", check "Enable", and click Apply & Save. If the network connection
status is "Connected" and an IP address has been allocated, the SIM card has been connected to
the network.
(Set the APN parameters for a private-network card.)

box indicates an optional item.
5.1 Network
5.1.1Bridge Port
A bridge port is intended to connect two different physical LANs over a bridge, to enable storage and
forwarding across LANs at the link layer.
Method for modifying the IP address of a bridge port and bridge members:
1. Click "Network >> Bridge" and select "Bridge >> Modify".
2. Modify the IP address of the bridge port or bridge members. Among the bridge members,
dot11radio1 and dot11radio2 are Wi-Fi 2.4G and Wi-Fi 5G ports respectively.

5.1.2 VLAN Port
A virtual LAN (VLAN) comprises a group of logical devices and users. These devices and users are
not limited by physical locations, but can be organized based on functions, departments, applications,
and other factors. They communicate with each other as if they are on the same network segment,
which contributes to the name of VLAN.
Method for adding a port of VLAN 2:
1. Click "Network >> VLAN >> Configure VLAN Parameters >> Add". Set the virtual IP address of
the port of VLAN 2 and select the member port of VLAN 2 as required. Click Apply & Save.
2. Return to the VLAN list. The port of VLAN 2 has been successfully added.
Currently, VLAN ports of the device support two link types: access and trunk. An access port belongs
to only one VLAN and is generally connected to a computer. A trunk port can be used for multiple
VLANs and can receive messages from or send messages to multiple VLANs. It can be connected to a
switch or a user's computer. You can select the link type as required on the "VLAN Trunk" page.

ID must be the same as that in the "Dial Pool" bar. Click Add, and then click Apply & Save.
5.1.4 Wi-Fi
The gateway can be used as an AP or a client. When it is used as an AP, other users can access the
Internet through the gateway via Wi-Fi. When it is used as a client, the gateway connects to an AP for
Internet access. The status bar shows the current Wi-Fi connection status of the gateway.
