1124 Yes, You can make your own firmware for the DLOS8N for branding purposes or to add customized applications.

1133 == 9.4 Can I use 868Mhz version for 915Mhz bands? ==
1134
1135
1136 It is possible but the distance will be very short, you can select US915 frequency band in 868Mhz version hardware. It will work but you will see the performance is greatly decreased because the 868Mhz version has an RF filter for band 863~~870Mhz, all other frequencies will have high attenuation.

1187 The DLOS8N has a fall-back IP address on its WAN port. This IP is always enabled so you can use the fall-back IP to access DLOS8N no matter what the WiFi IP is. The fall back IP is useful for connecting and debug the unit.
