4. Installation

Set up the Rugged LTE Gateway

Open the Rugged LTE Gateway by removing the four screws. Remove the router from the din rail.

InInsert the mini SIM into the router. A SIM adapter could be used for other sizes of SIM, such as the one in the picture below (not included). Then, screw the 2 x LTE and the 1 x WIFI antennas into the router.

Fix the router to the din rail and connect the ethernet cable to the “LAN” port. Close the bottom cover and fix it with the four screws in the packaging.

Once the Rugged LTE Gateway is closed, fix the mounting plate. If the device is mounted to a pole, use the additional support to fix it. 

Power supply

The Rugged LTE Gateway is powered over Ethernet, so the PoE is included. Plug the PoE device into the installation power supply.

Connect an ethernet cable to the PoE RJ45, then pass the ethernet cable through the plastic grommet, and then connect the Ethernet cable to the Rugged LTE Gateway.

5. Router’s configuration

Connection

You can connect the router and a laptop directly through an Ethernet cable or a Wi-Fi access point. If you use a Wi-Fi access point, you can find the Wi-Fi SSID and password on a sticker on the router’s backside.

Web server access

Open your laptop’s web browser window and visit the URL:  http://192.168.2.1/#/login.

Use the default credentials to log in: admin / admin01. Once logged in, you will be asked to add a new password.

6. Additional configuration

The following configurations are recommended actions for using the router with Wallbox chargers and general good practices to follow.

FW update

Please make sure the router is updated to firmware version TRB1_R_00.07.01.4 or newer. The update can be done locally or through the server following this path: System > Firmware > Update. Alternatively, visit this link to download the latest firmware version and install it manually.

APN configuration

When a custom APN is required, go to Network > Interface and click “Edit” (pencil icon) MOB1S1A1.

Deactivate the Auto APN feature and set your custom APN.

Rebind protection

OCPP backends could not be reachable when there is a private APN. To make it accessible, go to Network > DNS and deactivate the “Rebind protection” feature.

Auto reboot

To prevent the router from being disconnected from the Internet and not reconnecting, go to Services > Auto-reboot > Reboot Scheduler and set a periodical auto-reboot.

Backup and restore

To create or restore a backup file, go to System > Backup and use the Backup and Restore configuration tools.

7. Status and troubleshooting

Once you finished the above steps and configured the router properly, access the Overview page:

Overview and Status page

In the “Internal Modem” section, verify the following status appear:

  • Data connection: “Connected”
  • State: it should switch from “Searching…” to “Connected” once the communication is established 

If one of the above state displays an error, check the following:

  • Go to Network → Mobile and ensure the PIN introduced is valid.
  • Contact your network provider to check that the SIM has been activated and is operational.
