Accessing LHGG on WAN

Thu May 20, 2021 4:14 pm

Hi All,

I want to:
- use an LHGG as an external LTE modem, working in a bridge mode to avoid an additional layer of NAT, and
- use a hEX as a router.

I was wondering what are the options to access LHGG from a PC on the LAN on hEX.

Rough sketch of the network:

LHGG (working in bridge mode)

hEX (working as router)

PC
What are the options to access the LHGG from PC?

Hi,

This really depends on the setup, if your LHGG in passthrough mode you can activate ROMON on hex and LHGG then connect to LHGG via romon, if your hex next-hop/gateway/default-route is your LHGG and LHGG is reachable via IP then you can connect it using winbox directly

@loloski,

thanks!

LHGG is indeed the next hop from hEX and reachable via IP.

I tried adding a management VLAN between LHGG and hEX but failed horribly (I think I caused an IP loopback).

Will give it another try once I have some free time.
