8. Look for a sticker on the bottom of your modem with
the manufacturer-generated default password. Log in
using User Name = user and that Password. If there is
no sticker try 12345 for the password. Make note of the
password used so it can be easily referenced when off
site. Remote access to the modem interface will require
the password.
TIP:
We strongly recommend changing the default
password to prevent unauthorized access and the
potential of malware infection. The password can
be changed from the Admin tab.
WARNING:
Failure to set a strong password in the RV50(X) may
result in misuse of the modem by malware or
hackers. Significant data overage charges may
apply.
9. Once logged in, check the Status > Home > Network
State field. It should read Network Ready, indicating the
RV50(X) is connected to the cellular network. You can
easily test the RV50(X) connection to the Internet by
selecting the Admin > Advanced tab and using the PING
tool to ping an Internet server, such as
www.campbellsci.com.
10. Click the Template button in the
ACEmanager
toolbar. A
template application window will appear. Browse to
and upload one of the configuration templates
downloaded from Campbell Scientific.
