Setup LPS8V2



Connect gateway to the internet.


  1. Use WAN port to access Internet

By default, the LPS8-V2 is set to use the WAN port to connect to an upstream network. When you connect the LPS8-V2's WAN port to an upstream router, LPS8-V2 will get an IP address from the router and have Internet access via the upstream router.


        2. Access the Internet as a Wi-Fi Client

In the Wi-Fi Client Mode, LPS8-V2 acts as a Wi-Fi client and gets DHCP from an upstream router via Wi-Fi .


    The settings for Wi-Fi Client is under page Network -->  Wi-Fi



    In the Wi-Fi Survey Choose the Wi-Fi AP, and input the Passphrase then click Save & Apply to connect.



    Once you have setup your preferred connection check the internet status in the home page:
