1. CONFIGURATION OVER WEB
1. Configuration over web browser
Attention! If the SIM card is not inserted in the router, then wireless transmissions will not
work. The inserted SIM card must have activated GPRS. Insert the SIM card when the router
is switched-off.
For monitoring, configuring and managing the router use web interface, which can be
invoked by entering the IP address of the router into your browser. The default IP address of
the router is 192.168.1.1. Configuration may be performed only by the user "root" with initial
password "root".
The left part of the web interface contains the menu with pages for monitoring (Status),
Configuration,Customization and Administration of the router.
Name and Location items displays the name and location of the router filled in the SNMP
configuration (see SNMP Configuration).
For increased safety of the network managed by the router must be changed the default
router password. If the router’s default password is set, the Change password item is high-
lighted in red.

1. CONFIGURATION OVER WEB
After green LED starts to blink it is possible to restore initial settings of the router by press-
ing button RST on front panel. If press button RST, configuration is restored to default and it
is reboot (green LED will be on).
1.1 Secured access to web configuration
To the web configuration can be accessed via a secure HTTPS protocol. In the event
of a default router IP address is a secure router configuration accessed by entering address
https://192.168.1.1 in the web browser. The first approach is the need to install a security cer-
tificate. If your browser reports a disagreement in the domain, this message can be prevented
use the following procedure.
Since the domain name in the certificate is given the MAC address of the router (such
separators are used dashes instead of colons), it is necessary to access the router under this
domain name. For access to the router via a domain name, it is adding a DNS record in the
DNS table, the operating system.
•Editing /etc/hosts (Linux/Unix)
•Editing C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts (Windows XP)
•Configuring your own DNS server
In addition to configuring the router with MAC address 00:11:22:33:44:55 is accessed to
secure configuration by typing address https://00-11-22-33-44-55 in the web browser. The first
approach is the need to install a security certificate.
When using self signing certificate must upload your files and https_cert https_key direc-
tory /etc/certs in the router.
1.2 General
A summary of basic information about the router and its activities can be invoked by se-
lecting the General item. This page is also displayed when you login to the web interface.
Information is divided into a several of separate blocks according to the type of router activ-
ity or the properties area – Mobile Connection,Primary LAN,Peripherals Ports and System
Information. If your router is equipped with WIFI expansion port, there is also WIFI section.
