<!-----------------------------DEVICE DETAILS--------------------------->
The configuration wizard provides a simple way of quickly configuring the device in order to bring it up to basic functionality. The wizard is comprised out of 3 steps and they are as follows:
| name          = RUT850
 
| series        = RUT8xx
===Step 1===
| fw_version    = RUT850_R_00.01.04
 
<!------------------------------SETUP WIZARD---------------------------->
The first window of Setup Wizard prompts you to change the router's '''[[RUT955 Administration#General|default password]]'''. This step is not mandatory but it is '''highly recommended that you change the default password''' because if you don't the router becomes highly vulnerable to online attacks. You can also enable Sleep mode. Sleep mode is a RUT850 feature that automatically turns the router off after a specified amount of time. Since RUT850 is designed to be used in a vehicle, you can also specify below what voltage the router should shut down, thus, you can configure it to shut down after the car stops, and start back up again when the car starts.

The second window of Setup Wizard is used to configure your '''[[RUT850 Mobile|Mobile]]''' settings. Most SIM cards will work with the default settings, but some features have special requirements. For example, if your operator provides you with the Static Public IP feature, you must enter an Access Point Name (APN) for it to work, if you're planning on using PPP connection type, you must enter a dialing number in order to achieve a mobile data connection and etc.

===Step 3===
 
The third and final window of Setup Wizard is used to configure your router's '''[[Wireless|Wi-Fi settings]]'''. The default Wi-Fi configuration uses no encryption. It is recommended that you set up a password for your Wireless Access Point to keep out unwanted devices from connecting to your Wi-Fi network.

Summary

The Setup Wizard is a tool that offers a simplified version of other WebUI pages used to set some of the router's most relevant parameters:

You will be greeted with the Setup Wizard the first time you login, after you have changed the router's default password. On other logins you will be redirected to the Overview page, but you can reach the Setup Wizard any time via the System → Setup Wizard page.

This page is an overview of the Setup Wizard tool for RUT850 routers.

The information in this page is updated in accordance with the RUT850_R_00.01.04 firmware version.

Set new password

On your very first login you will be required to change the router's default password. This is done for safety reasons. In many cases routers are used to provide access to remote networks and systems. Since many manufacturers use similar default passwords (like admin, admin01, admin123, etc.) it is easy for attackers to gain access to routers that use such passwords and compromise the systems behind them. Therefore, to avoid such malicious attacks, this step is mandatory and you will not able to access the rest of the WebUI before you change the password.

The new password must contain:

  • 8-32 characters;
  • at least one upper case letter;
  • at least one lower case letter;
  • at least one digit.

After you have entered the new password, click 'Save'. Afterwards you will be redirected to the first page of the Setup Wizard.

General

The General section is used to configure the router's time settings and sleep mode.

The section below is used to enable sleep mode. Sleep mode is a function that automatically puts the rotuer into standby mode after a user specified delay.

If you wish to set these setting later, you can find them via the following paths:

  • Time settings - Services → NTP
  • Sleep mode - System → Administration → General

Mobile

The Mobile section is used to configure the router's SIM card parameters.

Field Value Description
Settings mode Automatic | Advanced; default: Automatic This configuration page's template.
  • Automatic - sets most of the main SIM card parameters automatically.
  • Advanced - provides more SIM card configuration options. For reference on these settings, visit the RUT850 Mobile Wiki page.
PIN number string; default: none A 4-digit long numeric password used to authenticate the modem to the SIM card.
Service mode 2G only | 3G only | 4G (LTE) only | Automatic; default: Automatic Preffered service type.
Data roaming On | Off; default: Off Turns mobile data roaming on or off.

If you wish to set the router's Mobile settings later instead, you can do so via the Network → Mobile page.

RMS

This section is used to configure the settings required to connect the router to the RMS (Remote Management System) - a cloud system designed by Teltonika and intended for remote monitoring and management of Teltonika-Networks products.

In order to add a device(s) to RMS, get yourself acquainted by watching this instructional video and register an account by clicking here. Each unique device receives a free month-long RMS license when added to RMS for the first time.

Field Value Description
Connection type Enabled | Standby | Disabled; default: Enabled Defines how the device will connect to RMS:
  • Enabled - the device attempts to connect to RMS every 2-5 minutes (every 2 minutes the first hour; then every 5 minutes). If it cannot connect for 14 days, it will enter Standby mode.
  • Standby - the device attempts to connect to RMS every 6 hours.
  • Disabled - RMS functionality is disabled.

When connection type is set to 'Enabled', the router attempts to connect to RMS every 2-5 minutes. To skip this wait, click the 'Connect' button to initiate a connection instantly.

If you wish to set the router's RMS settings later instead, you can do so via the System → Administration → RMS page.

WiFi

The WiFi section is used to configure the router's WiFi access point (AP). A WiFi access point is a type of wireless interface that provides WiFi access to connecting clients.

Field Value Description
Wireless name string; default: RUT850_<last 4 symbols of WiFi MAC> Sets the access point's SSID. The Service Set Identifier (SSID) is an identification string (name) for the access point. It is how the access point will be seen by connecting devices.
Require password yes | no; default: yes When selected, protects the access point with a password. New devices have a unique WiFi password which can be located on a sticker on the bottom of the device.

If you wish to set the router's WiFi settings later instead, you can do so via the Network → Wireless page.
