3 Setting up your router
3.1 Installation
After you unpack the box, follow the steps documented below in order to properly connect the device. For better
Wi-Fi performance, put the device in a clearly visible spot, as obstacles such as walls and doors hinder the signal.
1. First assemble your router by attaching the necessary antennas and inserting the SIM card(s).
2. To power up your router, please use the power adapter included in the box (IMPORTANT: using a
different power adapter can damage and void the warranty for this product).
3. If you have a wired broadband connection you will also have to connect it to the WAN port of the router.
3.1.1 Front Panel and Back Panel
To find out your router’s modem brand, check the bottom of your router. You should find a sticker containing
information about the router (Serial, IMEI, LAN MAC, etc.). The first line is the router’s product code. The seventh
symbol of the code indicates the router’s modem:
Quectel: A, H, J, K, L, M, P
Huawei: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, B, F
Telit: 0, 2, G
Below is an example of a sticker with a Huawei modem (the modem symbol is highlighted in yellow)

1. Press the start button
2. Type in “network connections”, wait for the
results to pop up
3.2 Logging in
After you’re complete with the setting up as described in the section above, you are ready to start logging into your
router and start configuring it. This example shows how to connect on Windows 7. On windows Vista: click Start ->
Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Centre -> Manage network Connections -> (go to step 4). On Windows XP: Click
Start -> Settings -> Network Connections -> (see step 4). You wont’s see “Internet protocol version 4(TCP/IPv4)”, instead
you’ll have to select “TCP/IP Settings” and click options -> (go to step 6). On Windows 10 type “Network and Sharing
Center” into the search bar and go there. In the navigation bar on the left side of the window click “Change adapter
settings” -> (go to step 4).
We first must set up our network card so that it could properly communicate with the router.

3. Click “View network connections”
4. Then right click on your wireless device that you
use to connect to other access points (it is the one
with the name “Wireless Network Connection” and
has signal bars on its icon)
5. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and then
click Properties
6. 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 address 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 with, 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: “255.255.255.0”. Then we enter the
default gateway: “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 router’s 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 router’s 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 RUT955!
From here on out you can configure almost any aspect of your router.

4 Operation Modes
The RUT9xx series router supports various operation modes. It can be connected to the internet (WAN) via mobile,
standard Ethernet cable or via a wireless network. When connecting to the internet, you may also backup your main
WAN connection with one or two backup connections. Any interface can act like backup if configured so. At first the
router uses its main WAN connection, if it is lost then the router tries to connect via backup with higher priority and if
that fails too, the router tries the second backup option.
Operation modes will be explained more thoroughly in this section.

5 Powering Options
The RUT9xx router can be powered from a power socket or over an Ethernet port. Depending on your network
architecture you can use the LAN1 port to power the device.
RUT9xx can be powered from a power socket and over Ethernet simultaneously. The power socket has higher
priority meaning that the device will draw power from the power socket as long as it is available.
When RUT9xx is switching from one power source to another it loses power for a fraction of a second and may
reboot. The device will function correctly after the reboot.
Though the device can be powered over an Ethernet port it is not compliant with the IEEE 802.3af-2003 standard.
Powering RUT9xx from a IEEE 802.3af-2003 power supply will damage the device as it is not rated for input voltages of
the PoE standard.
5.1 Powering the device from higher voltage
If you decide not to use our standard 9 VDC wall adapters and want to power the device from higher voltage (15 –
30 VDC) please make sure that you choose a power supply of high quality. Some power supplies can produce voltage
peaks significantly higher than the declared output voltage, especially during the process of connection and
disconnection.
While the device is designed to accept input voltage of up to 30 VDC, peaks from high voltage power supplies can
harm the device. If you want to use high voltage power supplies it is recommended to also use additional safety
equipment to suppress voltage peaks from the power supply.

Explanation
1.
Connection
type
PPP / QMI
Defines how the router's modem will connect to the internet.
PPP mode uses a dialling number to establish a data connection.
QMI mode (default) does not use dialling or the PPP protocol to
establish a data connection and it is usually faster than PPP mode
2.
Mode
NAT / Passthrough /
Bridge
NAT mode enables network address translation on the router.
Bridge mode bridges the LTE data connection with LAN. In this mode
the router does not have an internet connection as the ISP provides
an IP address directly to the end device. Using Bridge mode will
disable most of the router’s capabilities and you will only be able to
access your router's settings with a static IP address.
Passthrough mode works in a similar fashion to Bridge mode, except
in passthrough mode the router does have an internet connection
3.

Your service mode preference. If your local mobile network supports
2G, 3G and 4G (LTE) you can specify to which type of network you
wish to connect, e.g. if you choose 2G, the router will connect to a
2G network, so long as it is available, otherwise it will connect to a
network that provides better connectivity. If you select Automatic,
then the router will connect to the network that provides the best
connectivity

*Warning: If you enter an invalid PIN number (i.e. if the entered PIN does not match the one that is used in the SIM card), your SIM card will get blocked.
To avoid such mishaps it is highly advised to use an unprotected SIM. If you happen to insert a protected SIM and the PIN number is incorrect, your card won’t get
blocked immediately, although after a couple of reboots OR configuration saves it will.

DHCP mode*
Static
The Static mode requires that you enter your computer’s MAC address
(xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx) and select a lease time (expiration time for the leased address.)
The device will get an IP address from your GSM operator. Other devices that are
connected to the router will get IP addresses from the router’s DHCP server, but
they will not have internet access
Dynamic
In Dynamic mode the GSM operator will connect to the router first and give out an
IP address to your computer. When using Passthrough in Dynamic mode, the
router‘s LAN DHCP server will be disabled, but it will enabled again automatically
when you switch to a different mode
No DHCP
In No DHCP mode the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway and DNS from the
GSM operator will have to be entered on your computer manually. When using
Passthrough in No DHCP mode, the router‘s LAN DHCP server will be disabled, but
it will become enabled automatically when you switch to a different mode
7.1.1.1 Passthrough Mode
Passthrough mode is used to redirect all traffic to another device. In the process the router itself becomes
“transparent” as all traffic is redirected to another device which will also have the router’s public IP address assigned to
it.
*Using Passthrough Mode will disable most of the router‘s capabilities!

7.2.2.3 IP Aliases
7.2.2.3.1 General setup
IP Aliases are a way of defining or reaching a subnet that works in the same space as the regular network. This is
useful if you need to reach the router in the same network but in a different subnet. If you have a static IP configuration
on your computer and don’t want to change it every time you need to reach a router in a different subnet, you can
configure an IP alias in order to do so.
As you can see, the configuration is very similar to the static protocol; only in the example an IP address with a 99th
subnet is defined. If some device has an IP in the 99th subnet (e.g., 192.168.99.xxx) and the subnet’s gateway metric is
“higher” and the device is trying to reach the internet it will reroute it’s traffic not to the gateway that is defined in
common configurations but through the one that is specified in IP aliases.

You may also define a broadcast address and a custom DNS server for your IP Aliases in the Advanced Settings tab.

7.2.2.4 Backup WAN configuration
Backup WAN is a function that allows you to back up your primary connection in case it goes down. There can be
two backup connections selected at one time. In that case, when the primary connection fails, the router tries to use the
backup with the higher priority and if this one is unavailable or fails too, then the router tries the backup with the lower
priority.
The majority of the options consist of timing and other important parameters that help determine the health of
your primary connection. Regular health checks are constantly performed in the form of ICMP packets (Pings) on your
primary connection. When the connections state starts to change (READY->NOT READY and vice versa) a necessary
amount of failed or passed health checks has to be reached before the state changes completely. This delay is instituted
so as to mitigate “spikes” in connection availability, but it also extends the time before the backup link can be brought
up or down.

something like this:
The above picture shows the status for the Mobile Backup WAN configured on a wired main link. You can now
simulate a downed link by simply unplugging your Ethernet WAN cable. When you’ve done so you should see this:
When the main connection is down, all the traffic will go through the backup WAN interface (in this case, mobile.)
When you plug the cable back in, the connection will be restored and the traffic will again go through the main WAN
interface (in this case, wired.)

Explanation
1.
DHCP
Enable / Disable/
DHCP Relay
Enables or disables DHCP Server. If DHCP Relay is selected, you will be prompted
to enter an IP address of another DHCP server in your LAN. In this case,
Whenever a new device connects to the router, the router will redirect any DHCP
requests to the specified DHCP Server
2.
Start
100
The starting IP address value. e.g., if your router’s LAN IP is 192.168.2.1 and your
subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 that means that in your network a valid IP address
has to be in the range of [192.168.2.1 – 192.168.2.254](192.168.2.0 and
192.168.2.255 are special unavailable addresses). If the Start value is set to 100
then the DHCP server will only lease out addresses starting from 192.168.2.100
3.
Limit
150
How many addresses the DHCP server can lease out. Continuing from the above
example: if the start address is 192.168.2.100 and the server can lease out 150
(sample value) addresses starting from 192.168.2.100 and ending in
192.168.2.249 (100 + 150 – 1 = 249; this is because the first address is inclusive)
4.
Lease time
12
The duration of an IP lease. Leased out addresses will expire after the amount of
time specified in this field and the device that was using the lease will have to
send a new DHCP request to the router's DHCP server. However, if the device
stays connected, its lease will be renewed after half of the specified amount of
time passes, e.g., if the lease time is 12 hours, then every 6 hours the device will
send a request to the router asking to renew its lease. Lease time can be set in
hours or minutes. The minimal amount of time that can be specified is 2min
7.3.2 DHCP Server
DHCP server is the router side service that can automatically configure the TCP/IP settings of any device that
requests such a service. If you connect a device that has been configured to obtain an IP address automatically the
DHCP server will lease out an IP address and the device will be able to communicate with the router.

only clients that have static IP leases will be served
2.
Enable DNS
rebind protection
Enabled / Disabled
Enables DNS rebind attack protection by discarding upstream
RFC1918 responses (leave default unless necessary otherwise)
3.
Force
Enabled / Disabled
By default the router’s DHCP server will not start when it is
connected to a network segment that already has a working DHCP
server. If enabled, the DHCP force function ensures that the router
will always start it’s DHCP server, even if there is another DHCP
server already running in the router’s network
4.
IP netmask
255.255.255.0
Overrides your LAN netmask thus making the DHCP server think that
it’s serving a larger or smaller network than it actually is
5.
DHCP Options
6,8.8.8.8.,8.8.4.4

You can also define some advanced options that specify how the DHCP server will operate in your LAN network.
7.3.3 Static Leases
Static IP leases are used to reserve specific IP addresses for specific devices by binding them to their MAC address.
This is useful when you have a stationary device connected to your network that you need to reach frequently, e.g.,
printer, fax, etc.

7.3.4 IP Aliases
7.3.4.1 General Setup
IP Aliases are a way of defining or reaching a subnet that works in the same space as the regular network. This is
useful if you need to reach the router that is located in the same network but in a different subnet. If you have a static
IP configuration on your computer and don’t want to change it every time you need to reach a router in a different
subnet, you can configure an IP alias in order to do so.

7.6.7.4 HTTP Attack Prevention
An HTTP attack sends a complete, legitimate HTTP header, which includes a 'Content-Length' field to specify the
size of the message body to follow. However, the attacker then proceeds to send the actual message body at an
extremely slow rate (e.g. 1 byte/110 seconds.) Due to the entire message being correct and complete, the target server
will attempt to obey the 'Content-Length' field in the header, and wait for the entire body of the message to be
transmitted, hence slowing it down.
