Ezen Cloud

One Platform to Manage All Your Routers and Linked Devices - With one cloud dashboard reaching your whole routing infrastructure.

Introduction

EzenCloud is a centralized cloud platform enabling you to administer all your 4G, 5G, WiFi routers, and range extenders from a unified interface. EzenCloud provides remote access for convenient web-based management no matter where devices are physically deployed.

  • Connect remotely to the web interface without public IP addressing or port forwarding.

  • It also enables remote command line SSH sessions to routers for debug-level controls.

  • Furthermore, it allows remote access to LAN devices connected to the router.

Beta and Demo

The EzenCloud management platform is currently in beta testing, and we're inviting customers to evaluate it firsthand with free demo accounts.

Please contact us to sign up for the program and receive a token for a demo account. We will set up a trial account tied to your hardware MAC address. It supports all of our routers, as shown below, that are currently in production.

Retrieving the LAN MAC address of your router is simple. Head to the "Network > Interfaces" page on your admin console and note down the string of numbers and letters listed for the "LAN" interface. Supply that to our staff upon requesting demo registration.

Within 24 hours, we will enable a hosted EzenCloud sandbox pre-linked to your provided MAC Address. You can then explore the platform's capabilities on your gear.

Install Plugin

Connecting your router to the EzenCloud platform requires installing a specialized plugin to enable communication. Use the SSH terminal to access your router's command line and run the appropriate installation command below based on your model series. This will safely download the plugin and integrate it with the system.

EV3xxx Routers
opkg --force-overwrite install http://www.outdoorrouter.net:8080/EzenCloud/ezencloud_3x_v2.0.ipk
EV4xxx Routers
opkg --force-overwrite install http://www.outdoorrouter.net:8080/EzenCloud/ezencloud_4x_v1.0.ipk

You will see confirmation output upon successful application loading as below.

If errors appear during the automated process, please copy the returned information and forward it to our support team.

After installing the EzenCloud plugin, refresh the router web page and go to "Services > Ezen Cloud" to connect with the platform. Ensure internet connectivity via wired WAN, mobile modem, or WiFi relay connections.

Obtain Token

Navigate to the Cloud Users section and click the "Obtain Tokenstr" button. The token is bound to your router hardware MAC address.

  • If it can not obtain a token code, check your internet connection, refresh the web page, and try again.

  • If you got an error of "Error: HaveNoTokenstr," it means this router is not registered. Please verify the MAC address of the LAN interface and ensure the MAC address is the same as you submitted for the demo test.

Register Account

If you have not signed up for an EzenCloud account, click the "Register Account" button. You will be redirected to create your user profile with a custom username and password.
