4 Quick Network Connection
4.1 Environment Setup
Step 1: Install the 4G/5G and Wi-Fi antennas, and insert SIM cards into the router.
Step 2: Connect the power cable and Ethernet cable, and connect any of LAN interfaces to a PC.
Step 3: Assign an IP address to the PC, which must be in the same network segment as the router.
As the dhcp server function is enabled by default on the LAN interface, the PC must be in the same network
segment as the router. On the PC, set IP address to any value in the range of 192.168.2.2–192.168.2.254,
Default gateway to 192.168.2.1, Subnet mask to 255.255.255.0, Preferred dns server to 8.8.8.8, and
Alternate dns server to the IP address of the carrier's dns server.
Figure 4-1-1 Dynamic/Manual IP address configuration on the PC
Step 4: Start the web browser and enter the router's default IP address 192.168.2.1 in the address box. On the
login page that appears, enter the user name and password (adm/123456 by default) to log in to the
web-based management system of the router. If the web browser displays a message, indicating that the
website is not secure, unfold the hidden or advanced settings and choose to continue.

4.2 Internet Connection
The ER805 can connect to the Internet via three types of interfaces, each allowing for multiple connection
methods. The router has two default uplink interfaces WAN1 and Cellular, which cannot be removed. It
supports a maximum of four uplink interfaces, namely, WAN1, WAN2, Cellular, and Wi-Fi(STA). WAN2
and Wi-Fi(STA) need to be added manually and can be removed.
4.2.1 Wired Connection Via a WAN Interface
The ER805 can establish a wired connection through DHCP, a static IP address, or PPPoE. To select a
connection method, click 【Internet】on the left pane, and then click Edit in the row of WAN1
Figure 4-2-1-a Editing interface WAN1
DHCP: The DHCP service is enabled on the WAN interface by default. Therefore, the router can
connect to the Internet immediately when the WAN interface is connected to the Internet with an
Ethernet cable.
Static IP address: Manually assign an IP address obtained from the carrier or upstream network device.
Then, the router can connect to the Internet using this static IP address.

Figure 4-2-1-b Assigning a static IP address to the router
PPPoE: Configure the PPPoE service on WAN1. Then, the router can dial up to the Internet through the broadband
service.

To use the second WAN interface, click Add on the 【Internet】page to add WAN2. This interface provides the same
functions as WAN1.
Figure 4-2-1-d Adding WAN2
Notes:
After you add WAN2, interface LAN1 changes to WAN2.
After you remove WAN2, the interface changes back to LAN1.
When WAN2 is removed, all configuration on this interface, including the static routes, inbound and
outbound rules, port forwarding, policy-based routing, and traffic shaping, is deleted.
4.2.2 Wireless Connection via the Cellular Interface
Generally, the ER805 dials up to the cellular network automatically after you install the SIM cards and
antennas according to the installation guide, and power on the router. To set the access point name (APN),
click 【Internet】on the left pane, and then click Edit in the row of Cellular.

Figure 4-2-2-a/b Editing the cellular interface
The ER805 allows you to set traffic policies for cellular network access. After a traffic policy is enabled, the working
SIM card will take the specified action when the traffic usage reaches the set threshold.
Figure 4-2-2-c Configuring a traffic policy for cellular network access
Actions:
Notification:record the generated traffic reaching the threshold event, and the traffic transmission is not restricted.
Only Cloud Management:record the generated traffic reaching the threshold event, only keep the traffic of the
cloud management device, and the access to the Internet traffic will be restricted.
Switch SIM:record the generated traffic reaching the threshold event and trigger SIM card switching.

Notes:
When the router is used on a private network, disable link detection on the 【Internet 】page. Otherwise, the
cellular interface cannot work properly, because the cellular link cannot be detected.
In some cases, you need to enter the subnet mask of the cellular interface to ensure proper functioning of ARP.
Before removing or installing a SIM card, unplug the power cable of the router to prevent data loss or damage to
the router.
4.2.3 Wireless Connection via Wi-Fi(STA)
The ER805 can connect to an AP as a wireless client (STA). To use this connection method, click Add on
the 【Internet】page, select Wi-Fi(STA) in the dialog box that appears, and enter the SSID and password.
Figure 4-2-3 Adding the Wi-Fi(STA) interface
Notes:
After you add the Wi-Fi(STA) interface, the SSIDs of the router on the same frequency band are disabled and
cannot be enabled manually.
After you delete the Wi-Fi(STA) interface, the SSIDs on the same frequency band can be enabled or disabled
manually.
When the Wi-Fi(STA) interface is deleted, all configuration on this interface, including the static routes, inbound
and outbound rules, port forwarding, policy-based routing, and traffic shaping, is deleted.
