2.5 Applications

3Setting up your router
3.1 Installation
After you unpack the box, follow the steps, documented below, in order to properly connect the device. For
better Wi-Fi performance, put the device in clearly visible spot, as obstacles such as walls and door hinder the signal.
1. First assemble your router by attaching the necessary antennas and inserting the SIM card.
2. To power up your router, please use the power adapter included in the box. (IMPORTANT: Using a different
power adapter can damage and void the warranty for this product.).
3. If you have a wired broadband connection you will also have to connect it to the WAN port of the router.

3.1.3 Connection status LED
Explanation of connection status LED indication:
1. Signal strength status LED’s turned on: router is turning on;
2. 2G and 3G LED’s constant blinking every 1 sec: no SIM or bad PIN;
3. 2G/3G LED’s blinking every 1 sec: connected 2G/3G, but no data session established;
4. Blinking from 2G LED to 3G LED repeatedly: SIM holder not inserted;
5. 2G/3G LED turned on: connected 2G/3G with data session;
6. 2G/3G LED blinking rapidly: connected 2G/3G with data session and data is being transferred.
3.1.4 Hardware installation
1. Insert SIM card which was given by your ISP (Internet Service Provider). Correct SIM card orientation is shown in
the picture.
2. Attach LTE and Wi-Fi antennas.
3. Connect the power adapter to the socket on the front panel of the device. Then plug the other end of the power
adapter into a wall outlet or power strip.
4. Connect to the device wirelessly (SSID: Teltonika_Router) or use Ethernet cable and plug it into any LAN Ethernet
port.
3.2 Logging in
After you’re complete with the setting up as described in the section above, you are ready to start logging into
your router and start configuring it. This example shows how to connect on Windows 7. On windows Vista: click Start ->
Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center -> Manage network Connections -> (Go to step 4). On Windows XP: Click
Start -> Settings -> Network Connections -> (see step 4). You won’t see “Internet protocol version 4(TCP/IPv4)”, instead
you’ll have to select “TCP/IP Settings” and click options -> (Go to step 6)

We first must set up our network card so that it could properly communicate with the router.
1. Press the start button
2. Type in “network connections”, wait for the results to
pop up.
3. Click “View network connections”
4. Then right click on your wireless device that you use to
connect to other access points (It is the one with the name
“Wireless Network Connection” and has signal bars on its
icon).

5. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and then click
Properties
6. By default the router is going to have DHCP enabled,
which means that if you select “Obtain an IP address
automatically” and “Obtain DNS server address
automatically”, the router should lease you an IP and you
should be ready to login.
7. If you choose to configure manually here’s what you have to do:
First select an IP address. Due to the stock settings that your router has arrived in you can only enter an IP in the
form of 192.168.1.XXX , where XXX is a number in the range of 2-254 (192.168.1.2 , 192.168.1.254 , 192.168.1.155 and
so on… are valid; 192.168.1.0 , 192.168.1.1 , 192.168.1.255 , 192.168.1.699 and so on… are not). Next we enter the
subnet mask: this has to be “255.255.255.0”. Then we enter the default gateway: this has to be “192.168.1.1”. Finally
we enter primary and secondary DNS server IP’s. One will suffice, though it is good to have a secondary one as well as it
will act as a backup if the first should fail. The DNS can be your routers IP (192.168.1.1), but it can also be some external
DNS server (like the one Google provides: 8.8.8.8).

Right click on the Wireless network icon and select Connect / Disconnect. A list should pop up with all available
wireless networks. Select “Teltonika” and click connect. Then we launch our favorite browser and enter the router’s IP
into the address field:
Press enter. If there are no problems you should be greeted with a login screen such as this:
Enter the default password, which is “admin01” into the “Password” field and then either click Login with your
mouse or press the Enter key. You have now successfully logged into the RUT240!
From here on out you can configure almost any aspect of your router.

4Operation Modes
The RUT2xx series router supports various operation modes. It can be connected to the internet (WAN) via
mobile, standard Ethernet cable or via a wireless network. When connecting to the internet, you may also backup your
main WAN connection with one or two backup connections. Any interface can act like backup if configured so. At first
router uses its main WAN connection, if it is lost then router tries to connect via backup with higher priority and if that
fails too, router tries the second backup option.

In later sections it will be explained, in detail, how to configure your router to work in a desired mode.
5Powering Options
The RUT2xx router can be powered from power socket
5.1 Powering the device from higher voltage
If you decide not to use our standard 9 VDC wall adapters and want to power the device from higher voltage (15 –
30 VDC), please make sure that you choose a power supply of high quality. Some power supplies can produce voltage
peaks significantly higher than the declared output voltage, especially during connection.
While the device is designed to accept input voltage of up to 30 VDC, peaks from high voltage power supplies can
harm the device. If you want to use high voltage power supplies it is recommended to also use additional safety
equipment to suppress voltage peaks from the power supply.
