8. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your ASHATA 5G CPE WiFi 6 Router, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• No Internet Connection:
  • Ensure the SIM card is correctly inserted and active.
  • Check the NET indicator light on the router. If it's off or red, there might be an issue with the cellular network or SIM card.
  • Verify that your cellular data plan is active and has sufficient data.
  • Restart the router and your connected devices.
  • Access the web management interface to check the network status and APN settings.
• Slow Wi-Fi Speed:
  • Ensure your devices are connected to the appropriate Wi-Fi band (5 GHz for higher speeds, 2.4 GHz for wider coverage).
  • Reduce the distance between your device and the router, and remove any obstructions.
  • Check for interference from other electronic devices.
  • Limit the number of connected devices or bandwidth-intensive activities.
• Cannot Access Web Management Interface:
  • Ensure your device is connected to the router's network (either via Wi-Fi or Ethernet).
  • Verify that you are using the correct IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.1) and login credentials.
  • Try a different web browser.
  • If you have forgotten the login credentials, you may need to perform a factory reset (see below).
• Factory Reset: If other troubleshooting steps fail, you can perform a factory reset. Locate the Reset button on the rear panel (often a small pinhole). With the router powered on, use a paperclip or similar pointed object to press and hold the Reset button for approximately 5-10 seconds until the indicator lights flash. The router will restart with factory default settings. Warning: This will erase all custom configurations, including Wi-Fi names and passwords.
