There are two ways to install and setup the MWR7300 device: MeshManager or the MOTOMESH
Device Administration web interface.
Between the two available setup methods, MeshManager is the preferred and comprehensive device
setup, configuration, and management method. Prior to using the MeshManager software for device
installation and configuration, ensure that it is installed and running on a network computer.
MeshManager will be used during the device setup process to validate the installation of the device and
to manage it, (as well as other devices) within the wireless network.
The MOTOMESH Device Administration web interface can be used to setup and configure the device
by connecting a PC to the wired interface. Please note that the web interface does not offer all the
features that are provided within the MeshManager application. Additional web interface information
is provided later in the manual.
Detailed information about the MeshManager application is found in the MOTOMESH MeshManager
Users Guide .
