This guide will take you through the configuration of the Gateway Connect in a setup where Internet access is provided by your own router.
High-level takeaways
- You use your own router for Internet access
- You need to change the default network settings of the Gateway from DHCP server to a fixed IP for your Gateway Connect

- Finish the Installation guide: Router setup
1. Connect your laptop
Connect your laptop directly to the Gateway.
2. Access the Gateway interface
Open a browser on the laptop and enter the IP address 192.168.1.1:3000 in the address field.
3. Log on to the Gateway Connect
Enter admin as username and password. Click LOGIN.
4. Deactivate DHCP Server
Select the Local Network tab on the left side. In the ethernet0 settings, change the Interface type from DHCP Server to Fixed IP.
5. Assign a fixed IP to the Gateway
Decide on a fixed IPv4 IP address for the Gateway, and note it down. The fixed IP must match the IP subnet of your local network.
Click SUBMIT.
6. Reboot the Gateway
Disconnect the power supply and wait for 10 seconds.
7. Connect the Gateway to the local network
Ensure that the local network has access to the internet via your router. Connect the Gateway to the local network via Ethernet cable.
In case the Gateway does not connect automatically, check your network settings again.
7. Check network status

| Slow blinking (short ON / long OFF) | Searching for network |
| Slow blinking (long ON / short OFF) | Registered, but no data connection |
| Fast blinking (short ON / short OFF) | Registered and active data connection |
