4. Configuration  

Assuming 

that your wireless device can see the “4GConnect” network, connect to it using the default wireless password, 

which 

is…  

4GConnect

  

Once  connected,  your  device  should 
automatically  get  an  IP  address,  via 
DHCP,  in  the  192.168.1.xxx  range.  You 
should 

now 

be 

able 

to 

type 

http://192.168.1.1

  in  to  the  address  bar 

and  of  your  browser  and  see  the 
4GConnect login page appear. 

The  Login  Page  gives  you  the  key 
status  information  about  your  mobile 
3G/4G  network  connection  It  also  tells 
you if you have a valid WAN IP address, 
which  indicates  that  you  are  connected 
to the internet.  

In  the  example  shown  in  Fig.7,  the 
4GConnect’s WAN socket is wired to an 
office  network  which  is  providing  the 
internet connection. 

On a boat, this would be one of our long 
range 

WL510 

wireless 

adaptors 

connected  to  a  marina  hostpost  or 
another type of internet connection. 

Now login to the 4GConnect by entering 
the default login password which is:- 

4GConnect 

Once  logged  in  you  will  be  taken  to  the 
main Overview Page as shown in Fig.8. 

This  page  provides  a  “Dashboard” 
showing  the  status  of  the  4GConnect’s 
network connections and settings.  From 
this  page,  you  can  access  the  main 
menu  bar  along  the  top  of  the  page 
which  will  take  you  to  various  status, 
configuration, tools and services menus.  

The  default  4GConnect  settings  have 
been  carefully  chosen  to  work  well  in 
most  situations/installations,  commonly 
found on pleasure boats.  

Digital Yacht strongly recommend that you do not change any settings except those specifically mentioned in 

this manual and we cannot support or warranty repair any 4GConnect that fails due to wrong settings
