Configuring Ethernet Ports

Basic Troubleshooting
The following steps can be used for troubleshooting basic connectivity issues with your MG:
• MG devices require a valid and active data plan, so make sure the SIM and data plan are active.
• Some carriers require specific APNs, usernames/passwords, or PINs to use their SIM cards. Ensure the values are
correct if required.
• Validate signal quality is sufficient by checking the RSRP and RSRQ values on the Connection tab of the Local
Status Page.
• Try connecting the MG in Safe Mode and check if it comes online on Dashboard.
• Try a soft reset by pressing the reset button for 1 second to delete a downloaded configuration and reboot the MG.
• Try a factory reset by holding the factory reset button for at least 10 seconds.
• Try switching cables, or testing your cables on another device.
Device power issue
• If device fails to turn on, check the power source to make sure it is adequately supplying power to the MG.
• If there are no LED lights even though there is power at the outlet, check the MG to make sure everything is
plugged in properly.
• If device isn't coming after trying both AC adapter and POE, check that the power options also work on other
devices in a similar or matching setup.
