1 Introduction
Welcome to the Ctek SkyRouter User’s Guide. While the primary focus of this manual is the Z4550 4G/LTE model it also
documents variations in the user interface caused by different network technologies, CDMA for the Z4200 and HSPA for
the Z4400. These UI variations are focused on the activation and network provisioning aspects of the UI, all other
functions are common across these three models. Note that firmware release 6.00.05 and newer will provide support
for all three models based on the type of radio module installed.
The Z4550 is a cellular applications platform that provides 4G/LTE service on all North American networks with fallback
3G service appropriate for that network. This User’s Guide will explain the basic operation of the application platform
and router, and take you through the necessary settings to get your wireless application online securely. Additional
information concerning many of the advanced features of the Z4550 is found in TechNotes available at
www.ctekproducts.com.

2 Getting Started
2.1 Default Factory Settings
The Z4550 leaves the factory with the default settings defined in Figure 1. A Z4550 may be returned to its factory setting
at any time by depressing and holding the switch labeled default until the status LEDs begin a repetitive flashing routine,
approximately 10 seconds. Once the LED flashing sequence has begun, the unit should be rebooted (power-cycled) and
will return to service with the factory defaults in place.
Note – Z4550 units produced after approximately October 1, 2016 will be equipped with a dual-SIM feature. For both
dual-SIM operation and restoring factory defaults see dual-Sim section below.

2.2 Administrative Access
All administration and configuration of the Z4550 is accomplished using the web UI, which can be accessed locally
throughout the Ethernet connection or over the air through the WAN connection after the unit is connected to a cellular
network.
To use the local interface connect a computer to the Z4550’s Ethernet port using a standard Ethernet cable. Using a web
browser connect to the login page using the administrative IP address and the default login and password. Once you are
successfully logged in the Quick Panel display shown in Figure 2 will be presented.

Figure 2
The Quick Panel display presents an overview of the network and equipment status, and provides navigation to the
Administrative functions. The Quick Panel status information is a snapshot in time and must be refreshed to observe
changes in dynamic parameters such as network connections or signal strength. The Admin Main button on the Quick
Panel will display the main administrative screen as shown in Figure 3. Note that the main admin screen maintains the
Quick Panel’s status display, and offers navigation to all Z4550 SkyRouter administrative functions.

3 Wireless Network Activation – Z4550 4G/LTE
Ctek’s Z4550 SkyRouter operates on North American LTE networks on bands 2, 4, 5, 13, 17, and 25 with fallback to the
appropriate 3G network for the selected carrier. The Z4550 will also operate globally on HSPA (UMTS) networks on
bands 1,2,4,5, and 8
3.1 Prerequisites
Before you start, you must have:
1. A cellular data account with your selected carrier
2. A SIM card issued by that carrier that conforms to the 2FF form factor
3. At least one antenna suitable for the bands that will be used
4. A source of DC power between 9 and 24VDC

3.2 Activation
1. Insert the SIM card
2. Connect the DC power source to the Z4550 and power up
3. Connect a computer to the Z4550 using an Ethernet cable, a browser, and the default administrative IP address
4. On the Provisioning/Radio Update screen verify that the radio firmware is correct for the network you are using
5. If the firmware is correct, proceed to section 3.4, else see section 3.3
3.3 Installing Radio Network Specific Firmware
1. On the Provisioning/Radio Update screen, select the correct firmware for the network you are using
2. Press the Update Radio button – This process will take between 2 and 3 minutes to complete
3. The SVC and Link LEDs will begin an alternating green pattern
4. The Status button on the Radio Update screen will display the network firmware that is being loaded
5. After a 2 – 3 minute delay the Status button will indicate that the radio programming has completed
6. The LEDs will simultaneously blink green indicating that the programming was successful
7. If the programming step encountered a problem the LEDs will simultaneously blink red/yellow
8. Restart or power cycle the unit
3.4 APN Selection and Account Provisioning
Important Note – For the purposes of this manual, we divide the carriers (network operators) into two groups,
legacy CDMA carriers, e.g. Sprint and Verizon, and the legacy GSM group, which is comprised of all other networks. In
terms of provisioning the wireless account, especially APNs, these two groups present very different behaviors.
Legacy CDMA carriers use an over-the-air provisioning mechanism to “push” the appropriate APNs and settings to the
radio module when it connects to the network. Under normal operation, this process is automatic and there should be
no need to manually configure an APN. Legacy CDMA carriers currently use APN profile configuration (slot) 3 for the
operational APN.
Legacy GSM carriers do not use an over-the-air provisioning mechanism. You must enter the carrier provided APN in
APN profile configuration (slot) 1. Some legacy GSM carriers may also require you to enter a User Name, Password, and
authentication type along with the APN.
For Legacy CDMA Carriers
After the restart performed in step 8 of section 3.3 the unit will complete its reboot cycle, provision over the air, and wil l
obtain an IP address from the network, and light the Link LED. This process will take between 1 and two minutes. If the
Link LED is red it indicates an LTE connection, if the Link LED is green it indicates 3G connection.
For Legacy GSM Carriers
After the restart performed in step 8 of section 3.3 the unit will complete its reboot cycle. When the unit completes its
boot cycle reconnect with a browser. On the Wireless Interfaces screen enter the APN specified by your carrier.
Optionally, you may also need to enter a User Name, Password, and select an authentication type. When the required
information has been entered perform a restart or power cycle. When the unit completes its reboot cycle it will obtain

an IP address from the network, and light the Link LED. This process will take between 1 and two minutes. If the Link
LED is red it indicates an LTE connection, if the Link LED is green it indicates 3G connection.
3.5 Dual-SIM Operation
User Interface Control
The dual-Sim feature is managed from the Wireless screen under the Interfaces section. To use this feature select the
desired SIM, update, and restart the unit. If the automatic radio configuration feature is enabled the unit will load the
appropriate radio module firmware after it has been restarted. See the Installing Radio Network Specific Firmw are
section above for visual indicators and timing considerations.
Default Switch Operation (dual SIM)
For units equipped with the dual-SIM feature the default settings switch performs both the restore factory defaults
function, and provides a secondary method of SIM selection.
To restore factory defaults press and hold the default switch until the Link and Service LEDs blink on and of
simultaneously, Link = red and Service = Yellow. As soon as this pattern is observed, release the default button and
restart or power cycle the unit. Factory defaults have been restored.
To select the alternate SIM, continue to depress the default switch until the LED pattern shifts to both the Link and
Service LEDs blink on and of simultaneously, both with green being displayed. At this point release the default switch
and either the Link or Service LED will come on steady green, indicating which SIM slot is currently selected. At this
point, a momentary closing (pressing) of the default switch will select the alternate SIM and indicate the selection on
either the Service or Link LED. This SIM selection operation may be repeated as many times as desired. When the correct
SIM is selected, the unit may be restarted or power cycled. Similar to the User Interface method descri bed above, if the
automatic radio configuration feature is enabled the unit will load the appropriate radio module firmware after it has
been restarted. See the Installing Radio Network Specific Firmware section above for visual indicators and timing
considerations.
4 Wireless Network Activation – Z4200 3G (CDMA/EVDO/1XRTT)
For CDMA models, the Provisioning function on the main menu serves two purposes. First, it provides a mechanism to
activate and provision the router on the wireless networks utilizing the OTAS mechanism. Secondly, it may be used as a
general interface to directly enter specific commands, known as AT commands, to the router’s radio module. The
following important notes apply:
Note – Before using the Wireless Activation Services Interface for any purpose, you must first disable the router’s WAN
interface. This is required because during normal operation the router has a data connection open with the radio
module which will cause OTA time outs and potentially other types of OTA failures.
To disable the router’s WAN interface (1) go to the Wireless Interface screen, (2) set the Wireless Connection pull down
on to disabled, (3) press update, and (4) perform restart of the unit on the main menu page.
