1.3 Limited Internet Mode (L.I.M.)
With certain Hi-Link enabled USB modems from Huawei, certain features in the Dovado router
cannot be put to use. As the Hi-Link USB device acts as a router in itself, the Dovado router is
unable to fully use the Hi-Link USB device as a typical USB modem. All of these limitations are
imposed by the Hi-Link device, and not by the Dovado router.
If you are in need any of the following functionality, then please make sure to contact your operator
or reseller of the Hi-Link device:
Port-Forwarding is limited to a total of 15 rule assignments.
UPnP, SMS and Bridge Mode cannot be used.
The 192.168.1.x subnet cannot be used in conjunction with these modems, as the Hi-Link device
occupies this subnet.
2 Status Overview Bar
Atop of the user interface, a bar displays an overview of your Internet connection.
This information sits outside the security zone of your router, and does not need to be accessed via
an authorized login, thus saving time on checking the connection status.
The Connection Status Overview Bar shows the following information:
Date: Synchronized with a Dovado NTP (Network Time Protocol) server upon each new successful
Internet connection.
Signal: The latest measurement gathered by the USB modem upon connection is displayed in a
percentage value, along with the technology (2G, 3G or 4G).
The value is only updated after initiating a new connection.
SMS: Shows the number of unread SMS's.
WLAN: Shows whether a 20 or 40MHz channel has been manually selected. The value within the
brackets indicates the channel(s) currently used.
Time: Displayed in a 24-hour format (HH:MM). In case the displayed time is incorrect, you can set
the timezone in the System->NTP page.
Connection: Indicates whether your current Internet connection is via the inserted USB modem or
via an Ethernet WAN port. This is useful if your router has been configured to perform automated
failovers between one dropped Internet connection to a secondary (backup) connection.
Connection Indicator: Green color indicates that the Dovado router is connected to the Internet
via a USB modem. Red color indicates that it is disconnected from the Internet.
Traffic: Quickly displaying this month's Internet consumption in gigabytes (GB) on the downlink
and uplink of the USB modem.
New FW: Indicates if there is a new firmware for the router. Click on the text to get to the Live
Upgrade page
Position: The router’s GPS coordinates are displayed to the far right of the Status Overview Bar.
