I want to configure the XBEE parameters through the command line but I get a message saying “XBee network not available (Gateway is disabled, -90)”. I am connected via Telnet over a local network. I can’t find anything to solve this questions in documentation: [https://www.digi.com/resources/documentation/DigiDocs/90000566/reference/r\_set\_permissions.htm](https://www.digi.com/resources/documentation/DigiDocs/90000566/reference/r_set_permissions.htm) [https://www.digi.com/resources/documentation/DigiDocs/90000566/default.htm#reference/r\_set\_network.htm?TocPath=Command%2520Descriptions%257C\_\_\_\_\_112](https://www.digi.com/resources/documentation/DigiDocs/90000566/default.htm#reference/r_set_network.htm?TocPath=Command%2520Descriptions%257C _____ 112) resources/documentation/DigiDocs/90000566/reference/r\_set\_xbee ![LOG](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/digi/original/2X/f/f29a5c426e6285d364e4516281035355667b142f.png) ---

There are two things you can’t change on the local XBee on a gateway. One is the baud rate the 2nd is API mode. The module is already in API mode. Are you able to see the XBee network via the WebUI? ---

I can’t see the networks through the connectport webUI. I need to change the API mode to 1 because configuring the connectport from a configuration file modifies this parameter on the radio and I need to reconfigure the radio through XCTU. With the radio connected to the gateway and through XCTU I can modify the API mode. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/digi/original/2X/4/4e718c00198ce598f52f12b48642ce14aa3fb7ac.png) ---

The firmware on the Gateway requires that the XBee module mounted inside of it be set to API mode 1 and a baud rate of 115.2kbps. You will need to leave it at these values. ---

Setting API mode to 1 and a baud rate to 115.2kbps doesn’t allow me to change other parameters such as the ID ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/digi/original/2X/7/7f96b015b24464a4efbd56c470ce532be08f12e7.png) ---

Have you rebooted since setting the API mode and baud rate back to 1 and 7?
