Installation
This section will guide you through the installation process. Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router in an enclosed
area such as a closet, cabinet, or in an attic or garage.
Note: Ensure that your DWR-555 HSUPA 3G VPN Router is disconnected and powered off before performing the installation steps below.
1. Insert a standard (U)SIM card into the SIM card slot on the back of the router with the gold contacts facing downwards.
2. Insert your Internet/WAN network cable into the WAN port on the back of the router.
Note: The 3G connection can also be used as a backup WAN. Once a backup is congured, the router will automatically use 3G for
the Internet connection if the Ethernet WAN is not available.
3. Insert the Ethernet cable into the LAN Port 1 on the back panel of the DWR-555 HSUPA 3G VPN Router and an available Ethernet port
on the network adapter in the computer you will use to congure the unit.
Note: The DWR-555 HSUPA 3G VPN Router LAN Ports are “Auto-MDI/MDIX.” Therefore, patch or crossover Ethernet cables can be
used.
4. Connect the power adapter to the socket on the back panel of your DWR-555 HSUPA 3G VPN Router. Plug the other end of the power
adapter into a wall outlet or power strip and turn the device on.
a. The Status LED will light up to indicate that power has been supplied to the router.
b. The LEDs on the front panel will ash on and off as the DWR-555 HSUPA 3G VPN Router performs initialization and Internet
connection processes.
c. After a few moments, if a connection has been established, the following LEDs will turn solid green: Power, Status, WAN, WLAN,
and LAN Port 1 (or whichever port(s) your Ethernet cable has been connected to).
Caution! Always unplug/power down the router before installing or removing the SIM card. Never insert or remove the SIM card while
the router is in use.
