The Huawei B890 LTE Wireless Gateway is a versatile device designed to provide internet access and voice services through various network connections. It serves as a central hub for both wireless (3G/4G) and wireline (Ethernet) data services, allowing users to connect computers, phones, and other devices to the internet or make calls.
The B890 functions primarily as a gateway for internet connectivity. It supports multiple application scenarios, adapting to different network environments and user needs.
In its first scenario, the B890 can be connected to an Ethernet port on a wall, utilizing existing Ethernet data services. Users can then connect their computers to the B890 to access the internet, effectively acting as a router for a wired connection.
The second scenario highlights its capabilities as a 3G/4G wireless gateway. By inserting a Universal Subscriber Identity Module (USIM) card, the device can access 3G/4G data and voice services. This allows for mobile internet access and the ability to connect a phone to the B890 for making calls, making it suitable for locations without fixed-line internet or for users who rely on cellular data.
A third, hybrid scenario combines both Ethernet and USIM card functionalities. In this setup, the B890 connects to an Ethernet port for data services while also utilizing a USIM card for 3G/4G voice services. This provides flexibility, allowing users to leverage a stable wired connection for data and a cellular connection for voice, or to use the cellular data as a backup. Computers can still connect to the B890 for internet access, and phones can be connected for calls.
The device features a range of indicators on its front panel that provide intuitive status updates. These include:
On the rear panel, the B890 provides several ports and buttons:
The B890 is designed for straightforward installation and operation.
The device should be kept upright after installation to ensure proper heat dissipation and visibility of indicators. Only a B890-compatible power adapter should be used to prevent damage.
The B890's settings can be configured and managed through a web management page. Users access this by launching a web browser, entering http://192.168.1.1 in the address bar, and logging in with the default password "admin." For first-time logins, a Quick Setup Wizard guides the user through initial configuration. Only one user can log in at a time, and it is recommended to change the default password after the first login for security.
The B890 can access the internet via either wireless (3G/4G) or wireline (Ethernet) networks, but not simultaneously.
The B890 incorporates features to help users maintain its optimal performance and troubleshoot issues.
If users are unsure about configured settings or encounter issues, the B890 can be restored to its factory defaults. This is done by using a sharp-pointed object (like a ballpoint pen) to press and hold the RESET button until the signal indicators on the bottom blink. Restoring defaults will restart the B890 and delete all user-defined settings, reverting them to their original factory settings.
For general troubleshooting, if the B890 is not working properly, users are advised to:
The B890 is a robust and adaptable device, designed to provide reliable internet and voice services across various network infrastructures, with user-friendly indicators and management tools to ensure smooth operation.
