Please ensure to have JavaScript turned on. Configuration submitted via the Web Manager is applied immediately to the system when pressing the //Apply// button. When configuring subsystems requiring multiple configuration steps (e.g.  WLAN), you may use the Continue button to store settings temporarily and apply them at a later time. Please note that those settings are lost at logout unless applied.

You may track the progress by having a look to your network control panel and check whether your PC has correctly retrieved an IP address of the range 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.199.

 +===== Connecting Accessory Antenna-Railway =====
 +The accessory Antenna-Railway contains the antenna and antenna cables. LTE and Wi-Fi are connected directly with the corresponding NetModule router port. The GPS antenna cable from the antenna is connected to the GPS amplifier. The supplied antenna cable is connected to the GPS amplifier and connected to the router. See picture below.
