Installation
This section will guide you through the installation process. Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router in an enclosed area
such as a closet, cabinet, or in an attic or garage.
1. Ensure that your DWR-921 4G LTE Router is disconnected and powered o.
2. Insert a standard (U)SIM card into the SIM card slot on the back of the router as indicated by the SIM card logo next to the slot. The gold contacts
should face downwards.
Caution: Always unplug/power down the router before installing or removing the SIM card. Never insert or remove the SIM card while the router
is in use.
3. Insert your Internet/WAN network cable into the WAN port on the back of the router.
Note: The 3G/4G connection can also be used as a backup WAN. Once a backup is congured, the router will automatically use 3G for the Internet
connection if the Ethernet WAN is not available.
4. Insert the Ethernet cable into the LAN Port 1 on the back panel of the DWR-921 4G LTE Router and an available Ethernet port on the network
adapter in the computer you will use to congure the router.
Note: The DWR-921 4G LTE Router LAN Ports are Auto-MDI/MDIX, so both patch and crossover Ethernet cables can be used.
5. Connect the power adapter to the power connecter on the back panel of your DWR-921 4G LTE Router. Plug the other end of the power adapter
into a wall outlet or power strip and turn the device on.
