Understanding the LED Behavior for Mobile Network
The Internet LED indicates connectivity to the Internet through the Ethernet
connection only. The Power LED indicates the progress of USB initialization or the
status of the mobile network connection.
LED Behavior During USB Modem Installation
The Power LED indicates the progress of the initialization.
Before you connect the USB modem, the Power LED shines steady green to
show that the WRP400 has power.
After you connect the USB modem, the Power LED flashes green and
orange to show that a device is connected to the USB port and that
initialization is in progress.
If the initialization is successful, the Power LED shines steady green. If the
initialization fails, the LED continues to flash green and orange.
By default, the WRP400 connects to the Internet through the wired Ethernet, if
available. The mobile network connection is used as a failover when an Ethernet
connection is unavailable.
LED Behavior During Mobile Network Connectivity
After you successfully install a USB modem, the Power LED indicates the status of
the mobile network connection:
Flashing Orange: The WRP400 is attempting to connect to the Internet
through the mobile network connection.
Steady Orange: The WRP400 is connected to the Internet through the
mobile network connection.
Continuous Flashing Orange: The WRP400 failed to connect to the Internet
through the mobile network connection and is trying again.
Steady Green:
-
If a USB device is connected, this LED behavior indicates that the device
was successfully initialized and that the WRP400 is not using the mobile
network connection. If an Internet connection is active through the
Ethernet, then the Internet LED is illuminated.

If the USB device was removed, this LED behavior indicates that the
WRP400 has power.
To check the status of the USB Modem, or modify the settings for the mobile
network, connection recovery, and failover, you can use the administration web
server.

SSID1
,
SSID2:
The SSID is the network name shared among all devices in a
wireless network. The WRP400 can support up to two wireless networks.
By default, one wireless network is enabled, and you can create a second
wireless network.
Configure the following settings for each wireless network:
-
Wireless Network Name (SSID):
The default wireless network uses
this name: “cisco” followed by the last four digits of the wireless MAC
address of the WRP400. To rename the default wireless network, enter a
unique Wireless Network Name, which is case-sensitive and must not
exceed 32 characters. You can use any of the characters on the
keyboard. To create a second wireless network, select Network Enabled
for the SSID2 setting. Then enter a unique Wireless Network Name.
NOTE
If you are unable to configure the SSID2 settings, contact your service
provider for more information.
-
SSID Broadcast Enabled:
When wireless clients survey the local area
for wireless networks, they detect the SSID broadcast by the WRP400. If
you want to broadcast the SSID, keep the check box selected. If you do
not want to broadcast the SSID, deselect the check box.
-
For Internet Access Only:
On your second wireless network (SSID2),
you can set up guest access, which allows access to the Internet while
blocking access to your local network. For example, a guest cannot
access the data stored on your local computers. To limit guests to
Internet access only, keep the check box selected. To allow local
network access, deselect the check box.
NOTE
The For Internet Access Only feature applies only to SSID2.
-
Network Enabled:
To enable the wireless network, select the check
box. To disable the wireless network, deselect the check box.
