Internet & IP
Run a first quick Internet access test to check Internet connectivity.
Internet Connection
You can quickly check the mobile connection status on the front page and Mobile interface.
After successfully setting up an Internet connection on the mobile modem:
The "SIM card" and "Mobile Connection" display "Connected" on the front page.
The "Network > IPv4 Upstream" section and the Mobile interface show the IPv4 address, RX/TX stream, and connection uptime.
Go to "Network > Diagnostics" and use the "IPv4 Ping" tool to check your internet connectivity. When the mobile signal is fair/strong, and there is no internet interruption, the ping tool should return "0% packet loss."
Mobile IP
The "Network > IPv4 Upstream" section shows on the front page, and the Mobile interface under "Network > Interfaces" displays the IPv4/6, DNS, and gateway of the mobile internet connection.
Public VS Private IP
The mobile carrier typically assigns a private IP address for the mobile connection. A private IP does not traverse the Internet and cannot be used for remote access. Check out the IP and DNS tutorials.
Below are the standard formats of private IP addresses:
10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255
100.64.0.0 to 100.127.255.255 (Carrier-Grade)
