Router Mode Setup

Difficulty level: Easy

Goal

To setup the 6310-DX as a standard DHCP Cellular Extender with dual WAN failover between the DX's WAN Ethernet port and its cellular modem.

Once cellular extender mode is enabled, the 6310-DX will use its WAN Ethernet port as the primary Internet connection for all client devices, and the cellular modem will be the backup connection.

Setup

This article assumes the 6310-DX is operating under default settings, which provides passthrough connectivity to a device connected on port 1 of the 6310-DX.  For more details on the default settings of the 6310-DX, see the Default Settings section of the 6310-DX User's Manual.  Also, refer to the Getting started with Accelerated View for details on how to configure a 6310-DX (or the Local device management section, if you are managing the device without Accelerated View).

Configuration Steps

Open the configuration profile for the 6310-DX and make the following changes.  

  1. Under Modem -> Passthrough, de-select the Enabled checkbox.

  2. Under Network -> Interfaces -> LAN, select the Enabled checkbox.
