If you have an attached device with GPS support, you can enable a graphical view of your router‘s location which will

appear in Status → GPS Status.

Users can configure GPS NMEA GGA format

sentence reporting, available through a router-

based server and/or a remote server.

NOTE: Some carriers disable GPS support in otherwise

supported modems. If you encounter issues with obtaining a

fix, contact your carrier and ensure that GPS is supported.

 Enable GPS support: Enables support for

querying GPS information from supported

modems.

 Enable GPS server on WAN: Enables a

TCP server on the WAN side of the firewall,

which will periodically send GPS NMEA

sentences to connected clients.

 Enable GPS server on LAN: Enables a TCP server on the LAN side of the firewall, which will periodically send

GPS NMEA sentences to connected clients.

o GPS server port number

 Enable GPS reporting to remote server: Enables periodic reporting of GPS NMEA sentences to a remote server.

The router will buffer NMEA data if errors are encountered or if the internet connection goes down and send the

buffered sentences when the connection is restored.

o Report only over specific time interval: Restricts the NMEA sentence reporting to a remote server to a

specific time interval.
