! style="width: 1200px; background: black; color: white;" | Description
 
|-
 
! style="text-align: left; vertical-align: top;" | Connection type
 
| style="text-align: left; vertical-align: top;" | QMI {{!}} NCM {{!}} NDIS {{!}} PPP; Default: '''QMI'''
 
| style="text-align: left; vertical-align: top;" | Defines how the router's modem will establish a connection to the ISP (Internet Service Provider)
 
'''PPP''' uses a dialling number to establish a data connection
 
 
 
'''QMI''' does not use dialling or the PPP protocol to establish data connection and it is usually faster than PPP mode
 
 
 
'''NOTE:''' PPP connection type exists on all RUT devices, but '''QMI''' does not. If you have a RUT device with a '''Telit''' modem, '''QMI''' will be replaced by '''NCM'''. If your RUT device contains a '''Huawei''' modem, you will see '''NDIS''' instead of '''QMI'''. '''QMI''' connection type is available on RUT devices that use a '''Quectel''' modem (which is the standard modem for most RUT devices)
 
|-
 
! style="text-align: left; vertical-align: top;" | Mode
 
| style="text-align: left; vertical-align: top;" | NAT {{!}} Passthrough'''*''' {{!}} Bridge; Default: '''NAT'''
 
| style="text-align: left; vertical-align: top;" | '''NAT''' mode enables network address translation on the router
 
'''Bridge''' mode bridges the LTE data connection with LAN. In this mode the router does not have an internet connection as the ISP provides an IP address directly to the end device (e.g., computer). Using Bridge mode will disable most of the router’s capabilities and you will only be able to access your router's settings with a static IP address.
 
 
 
'''Passthrough''' mode works in a similar fashion to Bridge mode, except in passthrough mode the router will have an internet connection and be reachable

The information in this page is updated in accordance with firmware version RUT2_R_00.07.06.8.


Note: click here for the old style WebUI (FW version RUT2XX_R_00.01.14.7 and earlier) user manual page.

Summary

The Mobile page is used to configure mobile connection settings.

This manual page provides an overview of the Mobile page in RUT240 devices.

If you're having trouble finding this page or some of the parameters described here on your device's WebUI, you should turn on "Advanced WebUI" mode. You can do that by clicking the "Advanced" button, located at the top of the WebUI.

General

The General section is used to configure SIM card parameters that define how the device will establish a mobile connection.

SIM card settings


The SIM Card Settings section is used to configure main SIM card parameters. Refer to the figure and table below for information on the fields contained in that section.

SMS sent / SMS limit - Displays number of sent SMS and set limit
Clear SMS Limit - (interactive button) Clears the SMS limit counter for the selected period.

USSD


Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD) is communication protocol used in communication between cellular devices and mobile network operators. It is usually used with prepaid SIM cards to enable/disable certain services or to obtain information from a network operator.

This section provides the possibility to send USSD messages to the mobile operator.

Networking rutos manual mobile general ussd.png

Field Value Description
USSD string; default: none Enter a USSD code (up to 182 character) that you wish to send. To send the entered USSD code, click the 'Send' button below the Response box.
Response message string; default: No response yet Displays the response to the last sent USSD message. Receiving the response may take up to a minute.
Send - (interactive button) Click to send the message entered in the USSD field.

PIN/PUK lock notification


If you set an invalid PIN/PUK code or insert a locked/blocked sim card, a side message will pop up with information that the sim card is locked or blocked. Click 'Unlock Sim here` to open the modal window where you can enter the sim card PIN/PUK codes.

Side message where the sim is locked Networking rutos manual mobile general pin.png

Side message where the sim is blocked Networking rutos manual mobile general puk.png

Networking rutos manual mobile general pin puk.png

Field Value Description
PIN 4-8 positive numeric chars (positive number); default: none SIM card's PIN (Personal Identification Number) is a secret numeric password shared between a user and a system that can be used to authenticate the user. PIN is saved in flash memory, it will be saved after device reset.
PUK 8 positive numeric chars (positive number); default: none SIM PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) is a code consisting of 8 digits. It is used to unblock your SIM card when you entered 3 times a wrong PIN code


Network operators

The Network operators section provides you with the possibility to scan for and manage mobile network operators to which the device's SIM card can connect to.

Networking rutos manual mobile network operators scan dualsim 0.png

Field Value Description
Current operator string; default: none Displays the name of the operator the which the device is currently connected.
Connection mode Auto | Manual | Manual-Auto; default: Auto Operator selection method.
  • Auto - selects the operator automatically.
  • Manual - requires you to select the operator manually. (More on this selection below.)
  • Manual-Auto - prompts you to enter an operator's code, but if the router can't complete the connection, it will automatically connect to the next available operator.

Manual operator selection


To select an operator manually, specify Connection mode: Manual and click 'Scan For Operators'.

Will be prompted with a pop-up asking if you're sure. Click 'Scan' if you wish to proceed.

Networking rutos manual mobile network operators scan proccess step 2.png

Wait for the scan to finish. As indicated by the onscreen message, the process can take up to 3 minutes.

In order to lock the SIM card to using a single operator, select operator from Operator code field and click 'Save & Apply'.

Operators list


This section is used to create lists of operators codes, which can then be used in Operator settings section to Whitelist of Blacklist them. Operator code consists of two parts - Mobile Country Code (MCC) and Mobile Network Code (MNC).

APN Database

APN stands for Access Point Name and allows a device's network to connect to the internet. With the APN settings in place, your device builds a connection to a carrier's gateway. APN Database page section provides you with possibility to create/edit/delete APN records. Note: APN Database is additional software that can be installed from the System → Package Manager page.
