By default the router is going to have DHCP enabled, which means that if you select “Obtain an
IP address
automatically” and “Obtain DNS server address automatically”, the router
should lease you an IP and you should
be ready to login.
7.
If you choose to configure manually here’s what you do:
First select an IP address. Due to the stock settings that your router has arrived in you can only enter an IP in the
form of 192.168.1.XXX , where XXX is a number in the range of 2-254 (192.168.1.2 ,
192.168.1.254 ,
192.168.1.155 and so on… are valid; 192.168.1.0 , 192.168.1.1 ,
192.168.1.255 , 192.168.1.699
and so on… are
not). Next we enter the subnet mask: this has to be
“
255.255.255.0
”
. Then we enter the default gateway: this
has to be
“
192.168.1.1
”
. Finally we enter primary and secondary DNS server IPs. One will suffice, though it is
good to have a secondary one as well as it will act as a backup if the first should fail. The DNS can be your
routers IP (192.168.1.1), but it can also be some external DNS server (like the one Google provides: 8.8.8.8).

Right click on the Wireless network icon and select
Connect / Disconnect
. A list should pop up with all available wireless
networks. Select “Teltonika” and click
connect
.
Then we launch our favorite browser and enter the routers IP into the address field:
Press enter. If there are no problems you should be greeted with a login screen such as this:

Enter the default password, which is “admin01” into the “Password” field and then either click Login with your mouse or
press the Enter key. You have now successfully logged into the router and should see the Status page.
From here on out you can configure almost any aspect of your router.
Operation Modes
The RUT500 router supports various operation modes. It can be connected to the internet (WAN) via 3G, standard
Ethernet cable or via a wireless network. If you connect to the internet via an Ethernet cable of Wi-Fi, you may also
backup your connection with 3G for added stability. On every case except when you connect to the internet via Wi-Fi,
you can distribute your internet via an Ethernet cable (3 ports) and/or a wireless network. When you connect via Wi-Fi,
you cannot have Wi-Fi in your LAN.
