Hi everybody, I’m a network engineer from Dataglobal Komukatama.
Is GPS is available in peplink based on internet or satellite? Please help, thank you.

Hi Bayu Rahmadhani,

welcome to our Community!
Peplinks Devices have an extra GPS Connector and an extra Antenna, so it’s a real GPS based on Satellite.

Hi Dennis,

So if the device is not connected to the internet, GPS is still functioning for tracking?

Hi Bayu,

yes, you 're right. The Router stores the GPS information

see InControl route and GPS issues

Hello @Bayu_Rahmadhani & @dennis.hofheinz,
You need to be running FW8.0.0 RC2 or later for the GPS data to be logged and automatically updated with InControl2 when the device comes back online (previous versions had some bugs that should now be resolved).
You can also access the GPS features of the device while it is not connected to a network; these are available to download from the Status tab of the router as a GPX file.
Happy to Help,
Marcus :slight_smile:
