Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Nokia FastMile 5G Gateway 2.
This guide explains how to set up the FastMile 5G Gateway 2 at home using visual
cues from the LED to achieve the best performance from the 4G/LTE or 5G network.
The guide also describes how to configure the FastMile 5G Gateway 2 using its web-
based graphical user interface (GUI) known as the WebUI.
• FastMile 5G Gateway 2
• power adapter
• Quick Start Guide (QSG)
• warranty card
• safety card
Note: Projected peak throughput for NR TDD 2CA: 100 MHz + 100 MHz 256 QAM with 95%
DL duty cycle.
Your device can operate either in 5G NR or in 4G LTE. Where both 4G and 5G are
available, the FastMile 5G Gateway 2 supports dual connectivity EN-DC.
5G NR provides best download and upload speeds, thus improved user experience
for data services such as Internet browsing and video streaming. In case 5G NR
coverage is not available in your area, the device can also operate with 4G LTE only
as your WAN connection.
• Wi-Fi connectivity:
- 2x2 IEEE 802.11ax 2.4 GHz (40 MHz) WLAN interface, with MU-MIMO
- 2x2 IEEE 802.11ax 5 GHz (80 MHz) WLAN interface, with MU-MIMO
- Wi-Fi 4 support
- Wi-Fi 5 support (IEEE 802.11ac)
- Wi-Fi 6 support (IEEE 802.11ax) - dual band 2+2 connectivity
- Backward compatible with 802.11a/b/g/n/ac
• Wi-Fi security:
- WPA/WPA2: AES encryption
- WPA2 personal: AES encryption
- WPA2/WPA3 transition mode
- WPA3 personal: AES encryption
• customized default WLAN key
• supports PIN-locked SIM cards: a SIM PIN number is required to unblock the
SIM card service
• supports a logical temperature sensor
• can operate in the following modes:
- LTE-only
- LTE-5G EN-DC
- 5G SA
LTE only
When operating in the LTE-only mode, the FastMile 5G Gateway 2 will only use the
4G/LTE network to connect to the service provider's network.
LTE-5G EN-DC
When operating in the LTE-5G EN-DC mode, the FastMile 5G Gateway 2 uses a 4G/
LTE carrier and 5G NSA carrier at the same time to connect to the service provider's
network.
5G SA
When operating in the 5G SA mode, the FastMile 5G Gateway 2 uses the 5G
network to connect to the service provider's network.
Physical interfaces
The FastMile 5G Gateway 2 physical interfaces include those shown in the following
figures.
Both cloudless and cloud methods are supported; the cloud method is managed by
NWCC.
Unlike typical Wi-Fi networks that require unique SSIDs for each of the access points
or tedious set-up of Wi-Fi extenders, which complicate the user experience, a
Wi-Fi EasyMesh network of Wi-Fi beacons simplifies the end user experience by
providing easy device onboarding and automated network optimization.
Adding a Wi-Fi Beacon 2 to create a mesh that has the FastMile 5G Gateway 2 as
the access point can be done through the Wi-Fi Mobile App. Contact your Nokia
representative for more information about the Wi-Fi Mobile App.
For PIN-locked SIM cards, you will need to enter a PIN number. For PIN-blocked SIM cards,
you will need to enter a PUK and a PIN number. See Unlocking or unblocking your SIM card.
Use the finger grove to remove the SIM tray from the SIM card slot.
Place the SIM card in the SIM tray, and insert the SIM tray back into the device.
Connect the supplied power adapter to the power jack on the back of the FastMile
5G Gateway 2.
Note: Ensure that no cables are blocking the air flow on the underneath of the FastMile 5G
Gateway 2 to avoid overheating.
Connect the other end of the power adapter into an electrical outlet.
The LED on the front of the gateway will soon turn on and start blinking yellow to
indicate that the device is booting up. The LED is a multi-color LED that indicates
device status as well as signal strength.
When the booting-up phase is completed, the LED turns red to indicate the signal
search procedure. The FastMile 5G Gateway 2 starts searching for the best 5G
connectivity.
For more information about the LED, refer to the Understanding the LED colors
section.
Note: You may need to try the FastMile 5G Gateway 2 at several locations before the LED
indicates a good signal.
Once you find a good signal, do not reposition the device. If the position changes, you may
need to verify the signal strength again.
After you have downloaded the app to your smart phone or tablet, use the in-app QR
code scanner to read the QR code that is located on the label on the underneath of
the FastMile 5G Gateway 2.
A generic sample of the label below shows the location of the QR code. Note that
label content may differ per service provider requirements.
The FastMile 5G Gateway 2 pairs with your phone and performs initial
configurations.
The Wi-Fi Mobile App guides you through all the steps necessary to setup your
gateway.
Contact your service provider for more information about the Wi-Fi Mobile App.
The SSID format may differ per service provider specific requirements.
You use the WebUI through a PC or laptop that has an Ethernet LAN connection or
Wi-Fi connection to the FastMile 5G Gateway 2. The FastMile 5G Gateway 2 is a
secure device.
Access to the WebUI is through http or https. The http access mode is pre-configured
as the default access mode to the WebUI. The https access mode can only be used
if the FastMile 5G Gateway 2 has been pre-configured for https by your service
provider.
Note: The WebUI screens are designed for 1920 * 1080p resolution. The WebUI supported
browsers include Chrome, Edge, Mozilla Firefox and Safari.
• how to establish a connection from the device on which you will access the
WebUI for the FastMile 5G Gateway 2
• how to log into the WebUI when needed to view and configure parameters
Note: The FastMile 5G Gateway 2 must be powered up, see Starting the FastMile 5G
Gateway 2.
The generic sample below shows the location of the username and password on the
label. Note that label content may differ per service provider requirements.
Note: After predefined consecutive unsuccessful login attempts, you will be locked out for
a specific amount of time.
To improve security, it is recommended that you change the default password. You
can do this by going to the Changing the password procedure.
Logging in allows you to access and use the following screens from the WebUI main
menu:
• status

Under the Status / Cellular page, you can find the following:
Data usage
Data usage represents the amount of data that is downloaded and uploaded from the
FastMile 5G Gateway 2 since its latest reset/power-cycle.
SIM
The SIM status will be either online or offline.
A green dot, indicating the online status, indicates your SIM is activated and working
well. A gray dot indicates the SIM card is missing (see Inserting the SIM card), or may
not be working, or it was installed incorrectly, or you will need to enter your PIN
number (see Unlocking or unblocking your SIM card). Contact your service provider
if you have checked that the SIM card is properly installed but it is still not working.
Note: For uSIM cards, when status shows Available it means PIN number verification is
needed. When status shows Blocked it means the SIM PIN is locked and you need to input
a PUK number and a new PIN number. When status shows Error it means the SIM card is
destroyed because of a PUK error, or a modem failure, or a broken SIM card, or a specific
PIN lock acceptance feature is not active but the SIM card PIN number is locked.
After another SIM card B with PIN enabled is inserted to the CPE and its PIN is verified, the
SIM card A PIN number will be needed when it is inserted.
LAN

Troubleshooting
This section provides information about:
In addition to indicating signal strength, the LED also indicates device status. Use the
following table to check the LED behavior and perform the suggested actions to
resolve issues.
Note: LED indications can change over time due to variable 4G/LTE and or 5G signal
conditions.
If thresholds have been changed during pre-configuration by your service provider, the LED
indications might be different.
LED color LED behavior What it means What you may consider doing
Green Solid Good 4G/LTE or 5G connection Finish off the installation process
if applicable
Solid Missing or incorrect SIM card Insert the SIM card or replace it
• move the FastMile 5G Gateway 2 (with the power adapter) to a different location,
for example, the other side of the room or a higher position
• connect the power adapter to an electrical outlet at the new location and power
the FastMile 5G Gateway 2 on
• check the LED as described in Understanding the LED colors to determine the
signal quality in the new location and follow the recommended actions in the
section
Note: You may need to repeat the above steps several times before finding the final location
for the FastMile 5G Gateway 2.
Once you have a good signal, it is important that you do not reposition or rotate the
FastMile 5G Gateway 2.
