Installing the GW1000M
You can install the GW1000M in a vehicle or on a wall. To read how to install the
GW1000M in a vehicle read the Chapter ‘Installing the router in a vehicle’.
2.15 Installing the GW1000M on a wall
You can mount the router on a wall using the supplied carrier and suitable mounting
fixtures for the wall type (not supplied). You must not mount it more than 2 metres
above floor level.
2.16 Powering up
The router takes approximately 2 minutes to boot up. During this time, the PWR/CONFIG
LED flashes in a double flash pattern – 2 quick fashes followed by a pause.
Other LEDs display different diagnostic patterns during boot up.
Booting is complete when the PWR/CONFIG LED stops double flashing and stays solid or
flashing steady, indicating the particular running configuration is loaded. Read the
chapter ‘GW1000 LED behaviour’, for PWR/CONFIG LED states.

2.17.1 Recovery mode
Recovery mode is a fail-safe mode where the router can load a default configuration
from the router’s firmware. If your router goes into recovery mode, all config files are
kept intact. After the next reboot, the router will revert to the previous config file.
You can use recovery mode to manipulate the config files but should only be used if all
other configs files are corrupt. If your router has entered recovery mode, contact your
local reseller for access information.
