2. Router connection

(1) Hardware Introduction

You can check the router’s interface in the picture below:

 

(2) Router Installation

Step 1: Insert the SIM card into the device according to the arrow icon on the device.

Step 2: Rotate antennas into the antenna connectors. Antennas should be installed vertically and the device should be placed always on a site with a good signal.

Note: If needed, you can install the router on the wall. Drill four holes on the wall by using your drill and insert four wall plugs into the holes respectively, and then use 4 pcs of M3 × 6 flat head Phillips screws to fix the router on the wall.

(3) Router Deployment

Connect the WAN port of the router to the same LAN as the devices (including cameras and NVRs) to deploy the router to your CCTV project.

• Here are two general deployment methods for your reference.

① If your project has been connected to the Internet, you can directly connect the router to the LAN port of the switch in the project, as shown below.

② If your project is not connected to the Internet, you can connect the router to the UPLINK port of the switch in the project, and insert a SIM card into the router to provide network services to the project, as shown below.

Note: If some of the devices in your project have been connected to the Internet, and the others are not connected to the Internet, it is recommended to follow method 2 to reconnect the devices that need to be configured with Milesight Router.

(4) Web GUI Access

UR32S provides web-based configuration interface for management.

Step 1: Check the LAN IP address of the router on M-Sight Pro APP.

Step 2: Enable Wireless Network Connection on your computer and search for access point “Router_******”(last 6 bits of MAC address) to connect it. Or you can connect your computer

directly to the router’s LAN port.

Step 3: After it is connected, type the LAN IP of the router to your Internet browser to log in the web GUI of routers.

If this is the first time you configure the router, please use the default settings below:

Username: admin 

Password: password

Browser: Chrome (recommended)

Note: After you login in, a window will pop up asking you to change the default password for better security.

You can also go to System – User Management – Account interface to change the password.

Step 4: go to Network – Interface – WAN interface, assign a static IP address for the router as shown below.

 

Then go to Network – Firewall – Security interface to enable remote access service of HTTP port.

Then Configure the IP address of computer manually or automatically.

• Go to “Control Panel” → “Network and Sharing Center”, then click “Ethernet” (It may have different names).
  
• Go to “Properties” → “Internet Protocol Version4 (TCP/IPv4) Properties”, select “Obtain IP address automatically” or “Use the following IP address” to assign a static IP manually within the same subnet of router.
  
  
• You can access the router’s web GUI via this static IP address directly.
  

Note: If you need to remotely manage devices through this router, please make sure

that the property of LAN1/WAN port is set to ”wan” and the connection type of WAN port is

set to ”Static IP” or ”DHCP Client”.

3. Configure device permissions on APP

Step 1: Enable Wireless Network Connection on your mobile phone and search for access point “Router_******”(last 6 bits of MAC address) to connect it.
