May you please kindly assist with any information on setting up a 3G USB modem as a gateway for MP02. I'm using a Huawei E303 model for internet access and followed all the WAN steps for configuring the 3G USB dongle as a internet gateway but I cannot seem to get a internet connection.
The device is detected with Vendor ID and Product ID displayed on the web config page (by the way I used WIFI to connect my laptop and MP02 to access the config web page)
I also set up a unique WiFi profile on my laptop for the SSID “VT-SECN-AP” with the password “potato-potato”. Set the WiFi IP address manually as 10.130.1.121 with subnet mask as 255.255.255.0
I then followed all the steps for USB Modem WAN Mode from the following link:
http://wiki.villagetelco.org/SECN_WAN_Options
WAM PORT = USB-MODEM
WAM IP MODE = DHCP
Internet service provider = 8ta SOUTH AFRICA
APN = internet
USB Serial port = 0
Dial string = *99#
username = guest
password = guest
Though I did not use the username, password and pin values as I don't need to login when I access the internet via the 3G modem on my computer.
I left all the other default setting as they are but I have noticed that after saving my changes the LAN Gateway values changes from 10.130.1.1 to 255.255.255.0
Please assist.
