Galaxy H7921-RHZ-i 3G Router’s all interfaces are designed on the back panel as shown
below:
ANT:Antenna (SMA negative terminal) interface, which is able to match with standard
short antenna, vehicular antenna or directional antenna;
DC:DC power supply interface. (Be sure to check if the voltage of power supply is
consistent with the label on the router)
COM:Serial interface (RS-232) used for receiving and dispatching the data of serial
interfaces of terminal equipment or setting the console. Its application is dependent on
the working modes. For instance, under the CONSOLE mode, press the Spacebar of PC
connected with the serial interface to display the configuration state when the system is

Check whether the cables are connected correctly. Meanwhile, check whether the
power supply complies with the requirements. Galaxy H7921-RHZ-i 3G Router’s label
indicates the detailed requirements regarding the power supply voltage. Check whether
the power supply voltage is identical with that specified in the label.
If the input voltage is correct, but all indicators are off, maybe the device fails. Please
contact your sales representative.
Fault 4: How to resolve the problem if the following information appears when you ping
the router?
Such information indicates that error occurs in the installation process. You must check
the followings in sequence:
Whether PC is connected with Galaxy H7921-RHZ-i 3G Router correctly
by Ethernet cable?
(Note: H7921-RHZ-i Router’s LINK indicator and PC’s Link indicator must be
on).
Whether PC’s TCP/IP environment is configured correctly?
(Note: If H7921-RHZ-i Router’s IP address is 192.168.8.1, PC’s IP address
must be 192.168.8.xxx).
For more check, click the relevant menu and enter the DOS interface. Type the
command: ipconfig, and press the Enter key, for example:
C:\>ipconfig
Windows IP Configuration
(Type the command: ipconfig? to get more operation help regarding ipconfig
command).
WEB upgrade:
Galaxy H7921-RHZ-i 3G Router supports the function of upgrading the firmware directly
by importing the upgrade file via the WEB configuration interface. Log in the WEB
configuration page by means of entering the router’s IP address (LAN port or WAN
port) in the browser’s address bar. Click System Tools -> Firmware Upgrade, to go to
the Web firmware upgrade interface. Click the Browse key to find the corresponding
upgrade file. Click the Save button to upgrade the firmware.
In the process of upgrade, don’t make any other operation to the Web configuration
page. Otherwise, the upgrade may fail, which may make the router fails. After the
upgrade, this Web page will prompt that the upgrade succeeds or fails. If upgrade fails,
you can repeat the above operations again to upgrade the firmware.
Note:
1. In the software upgrade process never cut off the power supply or disconnect the
communication between the PC and the router.
