| − | ===Mobile Data On Demand===
| |
| − | ----
| |
| − | The '''Mobile Data On Demand''' function keeps the mobile data connection ''ON'' only when it is in use. When the router detects that there is no traffic, it shuts down the mobile data connection and turns it back ''ON'' only when there is a "Demand" (a user trying to reach a website, for example).

| − | ===Passthrough mode===
| |
| − | ----
| |
| − | In '''Passthrough''' mode the router assigns its WAN IP address to another device instead of [[Network Address Translation]] (NAT). It is similar to '''Bridge''' mode, except in Passthrough mode other devices can still connect to the router and get LAN IP addresses and both other clients and the router retain Internet access, while Bridge mode also disables the router's DHCP Server.

| |
| − | '''Static''' mode requires that you enter your computer’s MAC address (xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx) and select a lease time (expiration time for the leased address). The device will get an IP address from your GSM operator. Other devices that are connected to the router will get IP addresses from the router’s DHCP server, but they will not have internet access.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In '''Dynamic''' mode the GSM operator will connect to the router first and give out an IP address to one of your connected devices. The device will be selected at random, therefore, you should usually use Dynamic mode when you have only one device (e.g., computer) connected to the router. When using Passthrough in Dynamic mode, the router‘s LAN DHCP server will be disabled, but it will enabled again automatically when you switch to a different mode.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In '''No DHCP''' mode the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway and DNS from the GSM operator will have to be entered on your computer manually. When using Passthrough in No DHCP mode, the router‘s LAN DHCP server will be disabled, but it will become enabled automatically when you switch to a different mode</td>

However, if the device stays connected, its lease will be renewed after half of the specified amount of time passes, e.g., if the lease time is 12 hours, then every 6 hours the device will send a request to the router asking to renew its lease.<br>

| |
| − | ===Bridge mode===
| |
| − | ----
| |
| − | In '''Bridge''' mode the router assigns its WAN IP address to another device. It is used instead of [[Network Address Translation]] (NAT) in order to make the router "transparent" in the communication process. The main difference between Passthrough and Bridge is that in Passthrough, the router's DHCP Server still works and the regular LAN interface is still up, therefore, allowing clients to connect to the router's local network as usual, while Bridge mode disables all of these features and simply gives the a single specified device its WAN IP address. Since Bridge uses less of the router's features, it is a bit faster than Passthrough.

| |
| − | If you have configured Bridge mode and can no longer reach your router, you'll need to set up a Static IP address on your PC in order to do so. If you don't know how to set up a Static IP, you can check out our how to guide on this subject:
