Password
The first thing you need to do is change the password. From the Admin Tab of ACEManager,
change it.
Firmware
The first thing to check is if the router’s firmware is up-to-date. Go to the Status Tab. If the
router’s ALEOS Software Version is H2225E_4.0.10.001 Jul 21 2011 or earlier, it should be
updated. As of this writing, the latest firmware version is H2225E_4.0.11. This can be found on
the Sierra Wireless website at
. The executable file is
RvnXE_90_H2225E_4.0.11.003.exe.
With the firmware downloaded, follow these instructions to install it:
1)
Simply connect the Ethernet cable from your laptop to the router;
2)
Set your computer to DHCP;
3)
Double-click on the file to execute the firmware upgrade program.
4)
You will be entering the IP address of 192.168.13.31 with the default username and the
appropriate password.
5)
Follow the instructions on the upgrade program.
The Raven XE’s manual also covers how to upgrade the firmware easily.
Setting up the Raven to be on a network
The ACEManager will be accessed to change the LAN and other setting to enable it to be
accessed via an existing network. After the firmware upgrade, you should still be able to access
it via the default Ethernet settings.
Go to the LAN – Ethernet Tab and enter the following:
DHCP Server Mode: Disable
The Raven XE has a built-in DHCP Server. This must be disabled. If not it
may cause network issues, creating conflicts on existing IP addresses
already assigned.
Host Routing Mask: 255.255.5.0
