Edge Router 605 Product Quick Guide

What you need to do first: Unpack → Mount the device → Connect power and Ethernet → (If using cellular) Power off, insert SIM card, attach antennas → Power on → Set PC to same subnet → Open Web in browser.
Then: Scroll down to Part 2 to look up packing list, LED meanings, mounting, antenna labels, etc.

Must-Read Summary

Item	Requirement
Power Supply	12 V DC, Power IN port; System LED steady red indicates booting in progress.
SIM Card	Power off before inserting or removing; do not hot-swap.
Cellular / Wi-Fi Antennas	Screw onto matching SMA connectors by logo; quantity varies by model (see datasheet ordering info).

Step 1: Check the Front Panel and Interface Areas

Take out the ER605 and compare it with the interface diagram below. Locate the Power IN, WAN1, WAN2/LAN1, LAN2~LAN4, Reset pinhole, LED indicators, and SIM card slot.

Figure 1-1 Interface Diagram

For port roles and LED locations, see §2.2.

Step 2: Mount the Device

Choose a stable surface or wall-mount location.

Desktop: Attach the foot pads to the bottom of the housing, then place the device on the tabletop.

Figure 1-2 Attach the foot pad

Figure 1-3 Place on tabletop

Wall-mounted: Install the hanging ears on both sides of the device, fix two screws to the wall at the correct spacing, then hang the device and push down to confirm it is secure.

Figure 1-4 Wall mounting

For detailed mounting steps, see §2.4.

Step 3: Connect Power and Ethernet

Connect one end of the power adapter to the power outlet and the other end to the device's Power IN port.

Figure 1-5 Connect the Power adapter

Connect your PC to a LAN port (WAN2/LAN1, LAN2, LAN3, or LAN4) with the included Ethernet cable. WAN1 can be used for wired uplink.

Note: WAN2/LAN1 supports WAN/LAN switch. For port details, see §2.5.1.

Step 4: (If Using Cellular) Power Off, Insert SIM, and Attach Antennas

Power off the device first. The ER605 supports dual nano SIM cards. Use the SIM card ejector tool to release the tray, install the SIM card(s), then reinsert the tray.

Figure 1-6 Insert SIM cards

Attach the antennas to the corresponding SMA connectors. Match the logo on the glue stick antenna to the logo near the SMA interface.

Figure 1-7 Install the antennas

Do not hot-swap SIM cards while powered on.

For antenna model and quantity by variant, see §2.1 and §2.5.6.

Step 5: Power On and Confirm the Device Is Ready

Plug in the power adapter. The System LED will turn steady red during boot. Wait until it changes to blinking green, indicating the system is running smoothly.

For all LED states, see §2.3.

Step 6: Log In via PC and Browser

1. Ensure your PC has obtained an IP address in the 192.168.2.x range (the LAN port has DHCP enabled by default). If not, set a static IP manually:
2. IP Address: 192.168.2.x (2–254)
3. Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
4. Default Gateway: 192.168.2.1

Internet Configuration — Cellular

Go to Internet in the left navigation bar. Click Edit next to Cellular to configure the dial-up parameters. The device comes with the dial-up function enabled by default. If it doesn't establish a connection within a few minutes, re-enable the dial-up option.

Figure 2-8 Uplink table

Figure 2-9 Set the APN parameters

To verify the dial-up status, go to Dashboard > Interface Status. The device has successfully connected to the Internet when the Cellular icon turns green. You can click on the Cellular icon to access information like signal strength, IP address, and data usage.

Figure 2-10 Check the cellular interface

Internet Configuration — Wired

After powering on the device, connect your PC to the device's LAN port using an Ethernet cable.

The device's LAN port has DHCP Server functionality enabled by default. Once the PC has automatically obtained an IP address, ensure that your PC and ER605 are in the same address range.

Check the network in Dashboard > Interface Status. The device connects to the Internet successfully if the WAN icon turns green. Click the corresponding icon to view interface information such as signal strength, IP address and traffic consumption.

If this device cannot connect to a network, click Internet > Uplink Table > Edit to set up network parameters.

The device enables the dial-up function and WAN by default; please wait for a few minutes to go online, and re-enable the dial-up if it is not dialled.

Figure 2-11 Edit the WAN interface

Figure 2-12 Configure the Uplink interface

WAN mode options:

1. DHCP: The DHCP service is enabled on the WAN port by default which means this device cannot connect to the Internet immediately if the upstream device connected to the WAN port does not have the DHCP server enabled.
2. Static IP: Users can assign a static IP address obtained from the ISP or upstream network device manually.
3. PPPoE: Users can set the PPPoE service on the WAN port and then this device can dial up to the Internet through the broadband service.

Verify network connectivity via the Ping tool on System > Tools.
