RUT850 Network
Summary[edit source]
The Network page contains information related to the device's networking features. This chapter is an overview of the Network page in RUT850 devices.
Mobile[edit source]
The Mobile section displays information about the mobile connection and the SIM card in use. The figure below is an example of the Mobile page:
field name | description |
---|---|
Data connection state | Indicates whether the device has an active mobile data connection |
IMEI | The IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) is a unique 15 decimal digit number used to identify cellular modules. GSM network operators use the IMEI to identify devices in their networks |
IMSI | The IMSI (international mobile subscriber identity) is a unique 15 decimal digit (or less) number used to identify the user of a cellular network |
ICCID | SIM card's ICCID is a unique serial number used to identify the SIM chip |
SIM card state | The current SIM card state. Possible values are:
|
Signal strength | Received signal strength indicator (RSSI) measured in dBm. Values closer to 0 indicate a better signal strength |
Cell ID | The ID of the cell that the modem is currently connected to |
Signal level measurements | Overall signal quality is defined by different measurements for different connection types. Short explanations and recommendations are provided below. Click here for more in-depth information or click on one of the links below:
|
Operator | Network operator's name |
Operator state | Shows whether the network has currently indicated the registration of the mobile device. Possible values are:
|
Connection type | Mobile connection connection type. Possible values are:
|
Connected band | Currently used frequency band. For more information on supported frequency bands, click here |
Bytes received | Amount of data received through the mobile interface |
Bytes sent | Amount of data sent through the mobile interface |
Restart Modem | Reboots the device's cellular module |
Restart Connection | Restarts the mobile connection |
(Re)register | Registers to the mobile network |

WAN[edit source]
The WAN section displays information about the Main and Backup WAN connections. The figure below is an example of the Mobile page:
Field | Description |
---|---|
Interface | WAN type. Possible values are:
|
Type | Connection type or protocol. The value displayed in this field is dependent on used WAN type. Possible values are:
|
IP address | Router's WAN IP address |
WAN MAC | MAC address of the WAN network interface controller (WiFi radio). This field is only visible if main WAN is set to WiFi |
Netmask | A netmask is used to define how "large" a network is by specifying which part of the IP address denotes the network and which part denotes the device |
Gateway | Gateway of the default route - an IP address through which the router reaches the Internet |
DNS | DNS servers used by the main WAN connection |
Connected | Currently used WAN connection uptime |
Backup WAN Status | Displays the router's current WAN failover status |
Refresh | Refreshes all information fields in the page |
WAN settings can be customized via the Network → WAN page.
Wireless[edit source]
The Wireless section displays information about wireless connections and associated WiFi stations.
Wireless Information[edit source]
The figure below is an example of the Wireless Information section:
Field name | Description |

Channel | Currently used channel. In most countries there are 13 WiFi channels on the 2.4 GHz band (14 in Japan) to choose from |
Country Code | Indicates currently used country code (SO/IEC 3166 alpha2 country codes as defined in ISO 3166-1 standard) |
Wireless Status[edit source]
The Wireless Status section contains information about Wireless Access Points. The figure below is an example of the Wireless Status section:
Field name | Description |
---|---|
SSID | The broadcasted SSID (Service Set Identifier) of the wireless network |

Encryption | The type of WiFi encryption used |
Wireless MAC | The MAC (Media Access Control) address of the access point radio |
Signal Quality | The signal quality between router's radio and some other device that is connected to the router |
Bit rate | The maximum possible physical throughput that the router's radio can handle. Bit rate will be shared between router and other possible devices which connect to local Access Point (AP) |
Associated Stations[edit source]
The Associated Stations section contains information about devices that are connected to Wireless Access Point. The figure below is an example of the Associated Stations section:
Field name | Description |
---|---|
MAC address | Associated station's MAC (Media Access Control) address |
Device Name | Currently connected device name |
Signal | Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI). Signal's strength measured in dBm |
RX rate | The rate at which packets are received from associated station |
