### How to use the Network Tester <a href="#howtousethenetworktester" id="howtousethenetworktester"></a>

To set up the Network Tester:

1. Remove all packaging material from the outside of the Network Tester.
2. Open the lid of the Network Tester by lifting the flap on the front of the box and twisting it clockwise.
3. Ensure all six USB cables are connected to the USB hub, and are switched on.
4. Ensure all three SIM ribbon cables are fully inserted at both ends.
5. Insert the IEC cable into the back of the Network Tester, then power it on.

   The LEDs on each of the modems and Osmocom SIM trace tools should illuminate. If they do not, check the USB connections on each board.
6. Ensure the Hera 604 router WAN LED is illuminated green.

   This indicates that there is a valid data connection for Eseye to remote into the Network Tester.
7. Contact Eseye to let them know the Network Tester is set up and ready for testing.

   We will send you a report when testing is complete.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.eseye.com/modules/about-the-eseye-network-tester.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
