| Since the router is equipped with LTE modem as its main WAN interface, it might be useful to connect to the Internet right away after installation.

| You can also download the package as well as its missing dependencies via OpenWrt's website, upload them to the router and install them manually, which doesn't require the router to be connected to internet. | You can also add the necessary packages when building a new image with [[https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org/|Firmware Selector]] or download the package as well as its missing dependencies after installation via OpenWrt's website, upload them to the router and install them manually, which doesn't require the router to be connected to Internet. |

| * If you don't know your APN, you can either consult with your operator, or delete the line "option apn ...", in which case the modem will use the last known APN(not recommended). | Please refer to [[:docs:guide-user:network:wan:wwan:ethernetoverusb_ncm#network_configuration|NCM modem configuration]] for further details. |
| * If your SIM card doesn't have a PIN code, remove the line containing "option pincode ....". | |
