2.0 Quick Start

This QUICK START guide will walk you through the setup and process required to

access the WebUI configuration window and to establish a basic wireless connection

to your carrier.

Note that the units arrive from the factory with the Local Network setting configured

as ‘Static’ (IP Address 192.168.168.1, Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0, and Gateway

192.168.168.1), in DHCP server mode. (This is for the LAN Ethernet Adapter on the

back of the VIP4G unit.

2.1 Installing the SIM Card

 Before the VIP4G can be used on a cellular network a valid SIM Card for your

Wireless Carrier must be installed. Insert the SIM Card into the slot as shown

below.

2.2 Getting Started with Cellular

 Connect the power connector to the power adapter and apply power to the unit,

once the blue CPU LED is on solid, proceed to the next step.

SIM Card Slot

To reset to factory

defaults, press and

hold the CFG button

for 8 seconds with the

VIP4G powered up.

The LED’s will flash

quickly and the IP4G

will reboot with factory

defaults.

Use the MHS-supplied

power adapter or an

equivalent power

source.

9-30VDC

2.0 Quick Start

 Connect A PC configured for DHCP directly to one of the LAN ETHERNET ports

of the VIP4G, using an Ethernet Cable. If the PC is configured for DHCP it will

acquire a IP Address from the VIP4G.

 Open a Browser Window and enter the IP address 192.168.168.1 into the ad-

dress bar.

 The VIP4G will then ask for a Username and Password. Enter the factory de-

faults listed below.

192.168.168.1

The factory default

network settings:

IP: 192.168.168.1

Subnet: 255.255.255.0

Gateway: 192.168.168.1

The Factory default login:

User name: admin

Password: admin

The factory default login:

User name: admin

Subnet: admin

It is always a good idea to

change the default admin

 Once successfully logged in, the System Summary page will be displayed.

 As seen above under Carrier Status, the SIM card is installed, but an APN has

not been specified. Click on the Carrier > Settings tab and enter the APN sup-

plied by your carrier in the APN field. Some carriers may also require a User-

name and Password.

 Once the APN and any other required information is entered to connect to your

carrier, click on “Submit”. Return to the System > Summary tab.

2.0 Quick Start

 On the Carrier > Status Tab, verify that a WAN IP Address has been assigned by

your carrier. The Activity Status should also show “Connected”.

 Congratulations! Your VIP4G is successfully connected to your Cellular Carrier.

The next section gives a overview on enabling and setting up the WiFi Wireless

features of the modem giving 802.11 devices network access.

 To access devices connected to VIP4G remotely, one or more of the following

must be configured: IP-Passthrough, Port Forwarding, DMZ. Another option

would be to set up a VPN.
