2.2 INSTALLATION
2.2.1 SIM/UIM Card
InRouter305 uses pop-up card holder. Stab the hollow at the left of the card holder and the card
holder will pop up. Then, install the SIM/UIM card and press the card holder back to the card slot.
2.2.2 Antenna
Slightly rotate the movable part of metal SMA-J interface until it cannot be rotated (at this time,
external thread of antenna cable cannot be seen). Do not forcibly screw the antenna by holding
black rubber lining.
2.2.3 Power Supply
Upon installation of the antenna, connect the device to 9~36V DC power and see if the Power
LED on the panel of the device is on. If not, please contact technical support of InHand Networks
immediately.
2.3 LOGIN ROUTER
Upon installation of hardware, be sure the Ethernet card has been mounted in the supervisory PC
prior to logging in the page of Web settings of the router.
I. Automatic Acquisition of IPAddress (Recommended)
Please set the supervisory computer to "automatic acquisition of IP address" and "automatic
acquisition of DNS server address" (default configuration of computer system) to let the device
automatically assign IP address for supervisory computer.
II. Set a Static IPAddress
Set the IP address of supervisory PC (such as 192. 168. 2. 2) and LAN interface of device in same

6
network segment (initial IP address of LAN interface of device: 192. 168. 2. 1, subnet mask: 255.
255. 255. 0).
III. Cancel the Proxy Server
If the current supervisory PC uses a proxy server to access the Internet, it is required to cancel the
proxy service. The operating steps are shown below: 1) In the browser window, select
"tools>>Internet options"; 2) select "connection" page and click the button of LAN Settings to
enter "LAN Settings" window interface. Please confirm if the option "Use a Proxy Server for
LAN" is checked; if it is checked, please cancel and click the button <OK>.
IV. Log in/Exit Web Settings Page
Open IE or other browser and enter IP address of InRouter305, such as http://192.168.2.1 in
address bar (default setting of InRouter305). Upon connection, log in from the login interface as
Admin, i.e. enter username and password at the login interface (user name /password default:
adm/123456).
For security, you are suggested to modify the default login password after the first login and
safe keep the password information.

3.1.2 System Time
To ensure the coordination between this device and other devices, user is required to set the
system time in an accurate way since this function is used to configure and check system time as
well as system time zone. System time is used to configure and view system time and system time
zone. It aims to achieve time synchronization of all devices equipped with a clock on network so
as to provide multiple applications based on synced time.
From the navigation tree, select System >> Time, then enter the “Time” webpage, as shown below.

3.1.3 Admin Access
Admin services include HTTP, HTTPS, TELNET, SSHD and HTTPAPI.
HTTP
HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is used for transferring web pages on Internet. After enabling
HTTP service on device, users can log on via HTTP and access and control the device using a web
browser.
HTTPS
HTTPS (Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol) is the secure version of hypertext transfer protocol.
As a HTTP protocol which supports SSL protocol, it is more secure.
TELNET
Telnet protocol provides telnet and virtual terminal functions through a network. Depending on
Server/Client, Telnet Client could send request to Telnet server which provides Telnet services.
The device supports Telnet Client and Telnet Server.
SSHD
SSH protocol provides security for remote login sessions and other network services. The SSHD
service uses the SSH protocol, which has higher security than Telnet.
HTTP_API
User can check router’s status and configure router without login the router remotely by sending
HTTP request with HTTP API. Please ask to technical support for more information about HTTP

9
API.
From the navigation tree, select System >> Admin Access, then enter “Admin Access” page.
