Firmware

upgrade

USB interface is used for batch firmware upgrading, but cannot be

used for sending or receiving data from slave devices which

connected to it. You can insert a USB storage device into the

router’s USB interface, such as a U disk or a hard disk. If there have

a supported configuration file or a EG8001 firmware in this USB

storage device, the EG8001 router will automatically update the

configuration file or the firmware.

6. Ethernet Ports

Each Ethernet port has two LED indicators (please check the picture

above). The yellow one is Speed indicator and the green one is Link

indicator. There are three status of each indicator. For details please refer

Hardware Installation

1. Insert or Remove SIM Card

2. Attach External Antenna (SMA Type)

Attach an external SMA antenna to the gateway’s connector and twist

tightly. Make sure the antenna is within the correct frequency range

provided by the ISP and with 50 Ohm impedance.

Note: Recommended torque for tightening is 0.35 N.m.

Inserting SIM Card

1. Power off the gateway.

2. Use a pointed stick to press the Push Button, and then take out the

SIM Card Tray.

3. Place the SIM card on the tray, and insert them to the slot until you

hear “a cracking sound”.

Removing SIM card

1. Power off the gateway.

2. Press the Push Button, and the tray with SIM card will pop up to be

pulled out.

Note:

1. Don’t touch the metal surface of the SIM card in case information

in the card is lost or destroyed.

2. Don’t bend or scratch your SIM card. Keep the card away from

electricity and magnetism.

3. Make sure to disconnect the power source from your gateway

before inserting and removing your SIM card.

Mount the Gateway

Use 3 pcs of M3*6 flat head Phillips screws to fix the DIN rail to the

gateway, and then hang the DIN rail on the mounting bracket. It is

necessary to choose a standard bracket.

Note: Recommended torque for mounting is 1.0 N.m, and the

maximum allowed is 1.2 N.m.

Ground the Gateway

Gateway grounding helps prevent the noise effect due to

electromagnetic interference (EMI). Connect the gateway to the site

ground wire by the ground screw before powering on.

Note: This product is appropriate to be mounted on a sound grounded

device surface, such as a metal panel.

5. Connect the Gateway to a Computer

Connect an Ethernet cable to ETH0 or ETH1 at the bottom of the EG8001,

and connect the other end of the cable to your computer.

6. Power Supply

EG8001 Gateway supports reverse polarity protection, but always refers

to the figure above to connect the power adapter correctly.

Note: The range of power voltage is 9 to 36V DC.

Configure the PC

There are two methods to get IP address for the PC, one is to obtain an IP address automatically from “Local Area Connection”, and another is to configure a

static IP address manually within the same subnet of the Gateway. Please refer to the steps below.

Here take Windows 7 as example, and the configuration for windows system is similar.

2. Click Properties in the window of Local Area

Connection Status.

1. Click Start > Control panel, double-click Network

and Sharing Center, and then double-click Local

Area Connection.

3. Choose Internet Protocol Version 4

4. Two ways for configuring the IP

address of PC

Obtain an IP address automatically:

Use the following IP address:

(Configured a static IP address manually within the

same subnet of EG8001 Gateway)

5. Click OK to finish the configuration.

Gateway is 192.168.0.1, though the actual address may vary

3. In the login page, enter the username and password, choose

language and then click LOGIN.

Note: If enter the wrong username or password over six times, the

4. After logging in, the home page of the EG8001 Gateway’s web

3. Configure the IP of the Gateway

There are two Ethernet ports on EG8001 Gateway, including ETH0 and

ETH1. The ETH0 and ETH1 can freely choose from lan0~lan1, but at least

one LAN port must be assigned as lan0. In another word, ETH0+ETH1 can be

configured as lan0+lan0, lan0+lan1, or lan1+lan0. Both of ETH0 and ETH1

default to lan0, and their default IP are 192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0.

Configure lan0

Click Interface > LAN > LAN, click lan0’s edit button to configure its

configuration, and modify its IPv4 address and Netmask.

Click lan0’s edit button and configure its parameters in the pop up

window.

When finished, click Submit > Save & Apply for the configuration to

take effect.

Configure lan1

Click Interface > Ethernet > Ports, click eth1’s edit button, choose

lan1 as the assigned port, and click “Submit”.

Note: By default, there is a LAN port (lan0) in the list. To begin

adding a new LAN port (lan1), please configure eth0 or eth1 as

lan1 first in Ethernet > Ports > Port Settings. Otherwise, the

operation will be prompted as “List is full”.

Click Interface > LAN in the homepage, and click the add button.
