3.6 Connecting devices to LAN by Ethernet cable
Your router has 4 LAN ports on the underside. Here you can e. g. connect a
laptop, a Smart TV or a games console directly.
To do this, use the Ethernet cable supplied and plug it into a LAN socket on the
router. Plug the other end of the cable into the device you want to connect.
Your device can now have an active, previously established connection with
your router to a WiFi or use the mobile network to access the Internet.
4. Tracking your motor home or caravan
In case your motorhome or caravan got stolen you can locate it as long as the
router is powered and the SIM (which needs to be able to receive and send
SMS) is connected to the mobil network by sending an SMS to the number of
the active SIM in the router with the text
“Password gps“ (your router password, followed by space, followed by gps)
You will then receive a SMS in return with the coordinates followed by a
Google Maps link.
5. Rebooting or resetting the router
5.1 Rebooting the router
If you ever have problems with your router and it no longer reacts, you can
restart it with a so-called hardware reset.
To do this, you can de-energize the router by removing the power plug and
plugging it back in after a while.
Alternatively, you can also use the RESET button on the underside of the router
(see figure under 5.2). To do this, insert the SIM slot needle (included) in the
place marked RESET and briefly press the button behind it (no longer than 4
seconds).
