Internet & IP
Run a first quick Internet access test to check Internet connectivity.
Internet Connection
Section titled “Internet Connection ”You can quickly check the mobile connection status on the front page and Mobile interface.
- After successfully setting up an Internet connection on the mobile modem:
- The “SIM card” and “Mobile Connection” display “Connected” on the front page.
- The “Network > IPv4 Upstream” section and the Mobile interface show the IPv4 address, RX/TX stream, and connection uptime.
- Go to “Network > Diagnostics” and use the “IPv4 Ping” tool to check your internet connectivity. When the mobile signal is fair/strong, and there is no internet interruption, the ping tool should return “0% packet loss.”
Mobile IP
Section titled “Mobile IP”The “Network > IPv4 Upstream” section shows on the front page, and the Mobile interface under “Network > Interfaces” displays the IPv4/6, DNS, and gateway of the mobile internet connection.
Public VS Private IP
Section titled “Public VS Private IP”The mobile carrier typically assigns a private IP address for the mobile connection. A private IP does not traverse the Internet and cannot be used for remote access. Check out the IP and DNS tutorials.
Below are the standard formats of private IP addresses:
- 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
- 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
- 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
- 100.64.0.0 to 100.127.255.255 (Carrier-Grade)
