Introduction
Thank you for purchasing an Industrial HSPA Cellular Network Router from NetComm. This manual illustrates how to set-up and configure your router appropriately for your chosen task. The
router is primarily managed and configured via a web browser. This manual will take you through the steps required to configure and use your unit correctly.
Additionally, the router may be configured via the serial (V.24) port using “AT” (V.250) commands. This method of operation is further detailed in the document: NTC-6000Series_V250 (AT)
Manual_V1-1-0.
Overview
An NTC-6000 series router allows you to build wide area networks utilizing the superior speeds supported by 3G UMTS networks. Employing an embedded 3G UMTS modem module the router
offers downlink speeds of up to 7.2Mbps and uplink speeds of up to 5.76Mbps
The NTC-6000 series provides the user a point-to-point or point-to-multi-point communications link in a single, compact and resilient unit.
As a fully featured cellular router, it supports a large number of communication interfaces and protocols to meet the demands of today’s telemetry and WAN applications.
Designed with remote installation in mind the NTC-6000 series supports multi-level system monitoring giving the user peace of mind the device will keep the lines of communication up and open.
In the event of system corruption, a built-in recovery mode provides the facility to re-install the system software to the router and resume normal operations quickly. Using the recovery console is
further detailed in the document NTC-6XXX Firmware Upgrade VX.X.X.pdf that is part of all NTC-6000 series firmware upgrade packs released, which are available for download in the support
section of our website at www.netcommwireless.com .

The PUK code is sometimes referred to as a PIN Unlocked Key (PUK) code. You will need to contact your mobile broadband provider to obtain this number.
Your mobile broadband provider will issue you a PUK code which will enable you to unlock the SIM card and enter a new PIN code.
Enter the new PIN and PUK codes as shown below and click Save.
If you have entered the PUK correctly you should see the following message:

The ‘Remember PIN’ Feature
This feature allows the router to automatically send the PIN to the SIM each time the SIM asks for it (usually at power up).
This enables the SIM to be PIN Locked (to prevent unauthorized use of the SIM card elsewhere), while still allowing the router to connect to the cellular service.
When this feature is enabled the PIN entered by the user when they set the “Remember PIN” feature is encrypted and stored locally in the router. The next time the SIM asks the router for the PIN
the router decrypts the PIN and automatically sends it to the SIM without user intervention.
When this feature is disabled and the SIM is PIN locked, the user must manually enter the PIN via the router‘s configuration interface. This is clearly not desirable where the router is unattended.

Establishing a Connection to a Cellular Network
This section describes how to configure the router to initiate a Mobile Broadband connection. There are 2 possible methods that can be used to set up a Mobile Broadband connection via PPP:
Initiating the PPP Connection directly from the router (most common).
Initiating the PPP Connection from a different PPP client (i.e. laptop or router) with the router running in transparent PPPoE mode.
Initiating a PPP Connection Directly from the Router
The status page of the router should be displayed as below. Please ensure that the SIM Status is ‘SIM OK’ before you initiate a Mobile Broadband connection.

How to configure the Ethernet IP address
The IP settings can be configured by clicking on the “Internet Settings” menu followed by “LAN” and then “IP Setup”
The default IP of the Ethernet port is 192.168.20.1 with the subnet mask 255.255.255.0.
If you wish to change this then simply enter the new IP address and click on the Save button at the bottom of the page.
Since the IP address has changed you will have to re-enter the new IP address configured in your browser to access the configuration pages.

How to Configure DNS Masquerading
DNS masquerading allows the router to forward DNS requests to dynamically assigned DNS servers. Clients on the router’s LAN can then use the router as a DNS server without needing to
know of the dynamically assigned DNS servers assigned by the cellular network.
There should be no need to disable this feature in most cases, however, if you need to do so simply select “Disable” and click the Save button.
Figure 38: DNS Masquerading Setting
How to Configure the DHCP Server
Use the following procedure to change the router’s DHCP server default settings. Ensure your PC’s Ethernet connector is configured to automatically obtain an IP and DNS server address.
When you plug in the Ethernet cable to your PC, the router should automatically assign it an IP address within 10-15 seconds. Please be aware that you will be sharing the bandwidth of the
router between all connected devices. You can manually set DNS1 and DNS2 or if DNS Masquerade is enabled the DHCP DNS1 address will automatically be set to the router’s LAN address.
Figure 39: DHCP
This example has a start address of 100, an end address of 199, lease time of 86,400 seconds, and uses the DNS servers that are auto-assigned by the network upon connection.

If you do not enter the DNS1 and DNS2 addresses manually, then to browse the Internet from your Ethernet connected device you must enable DNS Masquerade (see above).
Upon enabling DNS Masquerade, you will notice that the DNS1 address is automatically set to the IP address of the Ethernet port. DNS addresses are then automatically assigned by the
connection to the network.
How to Configure Static DHCP Assignments
This facility is available by clicking on the “Internet Settings” menu followed by “LAN” and then the “DHCP” menu item on the right.
You may assign a particular IP address to a specific device every time that device makes a DHCP request as follows:

How to configure your device’s IP address manually (no DHCP)
If your device has a static IP address set, you can configure your device to work with the router by manually configuring your device to the following settings:
Set your device’s IP address to any valid IP address between 192.168.20.2 and 192.168.20.99 or disable the DHCP server and use any address. Do not use the IP address
assigned to the router’s Ethernet interface.
Set your device’s subnet to: 255.255.255.0.
Set your Gateway to the IP address of the router’s Ethernet interface: 192.168.20.1
Set DNS (if required) to 192.168.20.1 or configure manually to your mobile broadband provider’s DNS Servers.

Two or more physical rouuters are then configuured to stand for the virtual router, with onnly one doing the actual routing at any givven time. If the currennt physical router that is routing the data on
behaalf of the virtual router fails, an arrangemeent is made for anotheer physical router to automatically replacee it. The physical router that is currently foorwarding data on beehalf of the virtual rouuter is

selected and there is no currently activated profile.
pdpdown or pdpdownx
Disconnect the PDP. If a profile number is selected in the command, try to disconnect the specified profile in case
the profile is active. If no profile number is selected, try to disconnect the current active profile. Reports an error if
no profile number is selected and there is no currently activated profile.
pdpup or pdpupx
Reconnect the PDP. If a profile number is selected in the command, try to connect with the specified profile. If no
profile number is selected, try to connect to the last active profile. The router will check the currently activated
profile and disconnect this profile before executing the command. Reports an error if no profile number is selected
