Open the Dongle Panel

Each dongle has its own web panel. Open it through that dongle's proxy to check the signal, read SMS, or fix the APN.

You need: a dongle that is online in Proxy Management, and a browser that can use a proxy.

In short

Where it is

http://192.168.<label>.1. The label is in the Label column of Proxy Management.

How to get there

Through the proxy of that dongle. The address is private, so it does not open from your LAN.

What for

Signal and band, SMS, a custom APN or IPv6, and the SIM PIN.

Open the dongle panel

Step 1 of 5

Find the label and the proxy of the dongle

Open Proxy Management in your XProxy panel. On the row of the dongle, note two things:

  • its Label 1, for example 11;
  • its proxy address and port 2, for example 192.168.1.10:4001.

The panel of that dongle is at http://192.168.<label>.1. Label 11 gives http://192.168.11.1, label 12 gives http://192.168.12.1.

That address lives on the private USB network of the dongle. You cannot open it from your own computer directly. You reach it through the proxy of that dongle: steps 2 and 3.

Check from a terminal

Want to test it without a browser? Ask for the page through the proxy. This example uses label 11 and the proxy of modem #1:

Terminal
curl -I -x socks5h://USER:[email protected]:4001 http://192.168.11.1/

Leave out USER:PASS@ if your proxy has no login. A reply with HTTP/1.1 200 or a redirect means the panel answers.

Something not working?

You seeWhat to do
The page does not openCheck that the browser really uses the proxy of that dongle (same port as in Proxy Management) and that the label in the address is right.
The browser asks for a username and passwordThat is your proxy login (Proxy Settings → Login), not the dongle's. In Chrome use the HTTP type.
The dongle is red in Proxy ManagementFix that first: see Plug in dongles.

What next?

Set a public address for your proxies, or change the IP of a dongle.
