How Can I Access My Modem’s Web Interface?

Learn how to access the web UI of your Proxidize modem to configure settings such as APN, enable/disable dual-stack, and more.

What Is the Modem Web Interface?

The modem web interface is the modem's built-in settings page.

You may need to access the MX2 modem web interface to:

  • Check modem connection status.
  • Review signal or diagnostic information.
  • Configure APN settings.
  • Enable or disable dual-stack IPv4/IPv6.
  • Review or change modem network settings.
  • Access band locking settings on supported modems.

Most users do not need to open the modem web interface during normal use. Only change modem settings when you know what the setting does or when Proxidize Support asks you to.

⚠️ Important: Use the Correct Modem Proxy

When you open a modem web interface, your browser must route traffic through the proxy of the specific modem you want to access.

This matters because multiple modems can use the same internal web interface address.

For example, several MX2 modems may all use:

192.168.1.1

The proxy you use determines which modem web interface opens.

If you use the wrong modem's proxy, you may open the wrong modem interface and change the wrong modem settings.

Modem Web Interface Addresses

This guide focuses on Proxidize MX2 modems.

The process is similar for other modem models, but each manufacturer may use a different default WebUI IP address.

Common modem WebUI addresses include:

Modem Model Web Interface Address
MX2 modem http://192.168.1.1
Huawei modem http://192.168.8.1
ZTE modem http://192.168.0.1

Interface addresses and menus may differ depending on modem model and firmware.

To review currently supported modem models, see Linux Agent: System Requirements & Supported Modems.

Before You Start

You will need:

  • The proxy host and port for the modem you want to access.
  • The Proxidize Proxy Extension for Chrome or Firefox.
  • The MX2 modem web interface address: http://192.168.1.1.
  • The modem web interface password, if required.

If you are not sure which proxy belongs to which modem, check your Proxidize dashboard before continuing.

Install the Proxidize Proxy Extension

The Proxidize Proxy Extension lets you quickly connect your browser to a specific modem proxy, then open that modem's WebUI.

Install the extension for your browser:

Access the MX2 Web Interface Using the Proxidize Proxy Extension

  1. Open the Proxidize Proxy Extension.

     

  2. Enter the proxy details for the specific modem you want to access.
    Use the modem's proxy host and port from your Proxidize dashboard.

     

  3. Enable the proxy in the browser extension.

  4. Open a new browser tab.

  5. Enter your modem's web interface address: 

  6. Wait for the MX2 modem web interface to load.

  7. Log in if the modem asks for a password.

     

Confirm You Opened the Correct Modem

After the interface opens, confirm you are viewing the correct MX2 modem before changing anything.

You can check:

  • Carrier name.
  • Signal status.
  • Connection status.
  • SIM or network information.
  • Any modem label or identifying information shown in the interface.

If the information does not match the modem you expected, disable the proxy and repeat the steps using the correct modem proxy.

What to Avoid Changing

Be careful when changing modem settings.

Changing the wrong setting can disconnect the modem or cause the endpoint to stop working.

Avoid changing these unless instructed:

  • APN settings.
  • Network mode.
  • Band lock settings.
  • SIM or PIN settings.
  • DHCP or LAN settings.
  • Profile management settings.
  • Firmware or reset options.

If you need to make a change, write down the original setting first so you can restore it if needed.
