I. Introduction
1. General Introduction
The following user manual is meant to guide you in the installation process of your 4G+ ROUTER
1200. For this purpose, we will detail the process to set up your device and network. In addition, we
will present you the process to connect to Web UI and the different parameters that you can set, as
well as the meaning of the LEDs that you can see on your device.
Let’s see the different meanings of these LEDs in detail, in the following picture.

connection of the router by using the Ethernet cable and entering the following IP Address in
your browser:
2. Once you have entered the username and password, you can see that the Web UI is divided into
seven categories:
Home Page: where you can see the status of your connection, SIM Card and PIN Code.
Status: where you can see the information about the device, Internet, LAN and wireless
connections.
Network: where you can set up the APN, change or enter the PIN code, WAN, LAN and
Speed Limit.
Wireless: where you can set up WPS and Wi-Fi ( SSID (Wi-Fi Network Name) and Wi-Fi
password change, guest Wi-Fi, etc.)
Security: where you can set up a firewall, URL/MAC filters, IP filters and parental/service
control.
Application: where you can set up DNZ, DDNS, UPnP settings and IGMP.
Administration: where you can update the firmware, change the username and
password, languages, reboot the device, reset to factory settings, etc.
