Connectivity
The Access Station Micro needs Internet access to operate.
It can be connected via Ethernet cable (RJ45 port on PoE injector) or Cellular USB
dongle (USB port on station).
When both connections are used to improve link robustness, the Ethernet one is
automatically set as primary and Cellular is set as secondary backup.
