35.1	246
26.1	247
165.1	248	LPS8-V2 supports flexible network set up for different environment. This section describes the typical network topology can be set in LPS8-V2. The typical network set up includes:
26.1	249
165.1	250	* WAN Port Internet Mode
	251	* WiFi Client Mode
	252	* Cellular Mode
	253
	254	=== 2.2.2 Use WAN port to access Internet ===
	255
	256
	257	By default, the LPS8-V2 is set to use the WAN port to connect to an upstream network. When you connect the LPS8-V2's WAN port to an upstream router, LPS8-V2 will get an IP address from the router and have Internet access via the upstream router. The network status can be checked in the (% style="color:blue" %)home page(%%):

	262
	263	=== 2.2.3 Access the Internet as a WiFi Client ===
	264
	265
	266	In the WiFi Client Mode, LPS8-V2 acts as a WiFi client and gets DHCP from an upstream router via WiFi.
	267
	268	The settings for WiFi Client is under page (% style="color:blue" %)Network ~-~-> Wi-Fi

	276
	277
165.2	278	(% style="color:blue" %)Since Hardware version HP0C 1.4
165.1	279
	280	Users can see whether LPS8v2 has EC25 on the label of the gateway to determine whether there is 3G/4G Cellular modem.
	281
	282
	283	If the LPS8-V2 has 3G/4G Cellular modem, user can use it as main internet connection or back up.
	284
	285	First, install the Micro SIM card as below direction
	286
	287	Second, Power off/ ON LPS8-V2 to let it detect the SIM card.
