Foreword on Kura versions

...

To perform the configuration steps described here:

  1. The gateway shall be equipped with an antenna installed on the WiFi port

  2. Gateway powered up with no USB disk inserted

  3. Optionally a Ethernet cable can inserted in the RJ45 connector to connected the gateway directly to your local network

  4. To setup a connection over cellular networks, the adapted antenna shall be installed the LTE port and a SIM card inserted in the SIM card holder accessible via door on the bottom of the device

To verify that the system is running, the simplest way is to check WiFi available networks and when the gateway is ready, the SSID <Serial Number> is broadcasted. The serial number is found on the system label.

...

The following actions are needed

  1. Insert a SIM with NO PIN in the system and reboot. The automatic SIM detection feature is not enabled. If your SIM card is protected by a PIN code, see how to unlock it via the Controlling and accessing the modem and GPS . You can then configure the PIN code in the service configuration file.

  2. Set the eth0 as a LAN interface instead of WAN. Only 1 WAN interface can exist

  3. On the ppp0 (or 2-2.1) page

    1. Set the Status as Enabled for WAN

    2. Configure the Cellular with the APN info corresponding to the info given by your operator. Here are the fields that must be configured (see screenshot below)

      1. Dial string that shall be: atd*99**<pdp context num># ex: ‘atd*99**1#‘

By default <pdp context num> shall be set to 1. With Kura 5, if the pdp context digit is NOT present, the ppp setup will fail.

  1. APN name as per your operator instructions

    • APN Authentication type

    • If authentication is not none (CHAP, PAP or Auto) then the username and password must be entered otherwise they needs to be left blank

    • All other fields can be left as default

    • Apply and wait a few seconds and your system is connected to the Internet via the mobile network

Routing between WiFi and LTE shall work. If any routing problem, check the DHCP & NAT tab in wlan0 page and verify at the bottom that the pass DNS Servers through DHCP is well selected and apply (in any case make apply)
