Setting up an lte connection
1. Ensure that you have a Micro-SIM card, provided by your data carrier, in the Micro-SIM card slot on your tablet before
powering on the device. Make sure the SIM is valid, as inactivated or prepaid SIMs with no credit left will not work. Make
sure the carrier uses bands listed above in your area. To insert the SIM card, lift the slot cover near the stylus holder.
The SIM card slot is on the right when the screen is face down. Insert the SIM card, notch first, with contacts facing up.
The connector is a push-push type so you have to push until you feel a slight click and the card stay in. If it pops out, you
did not push the card in far enough. Your tablet reads the SIM card and attempts to connect to the network. Signal
strength bars
are displayed in the notification bar upon connection to the network. If Wi-Fi is not turned on,
you will see what type of data connection is available.
With the modem enabled, you may need to configure an APN for the network; check with your carrier. The table above
shows that when you travel, you should have access to cellular networks in most places.
If you insert the Micro-SIM card while the device is powered on, you will need to restart your tablet to enable the LTE
connection.
2. You can turn the LTE connection on and off in the Quick Settings. In the Quick Settings, tap
to open the
Cellular Data settings.
3. If Cellular data is set to OFF, tap the ON/OFF switch to turn on the LTE connection. When the LTE
connection is on, the ON/OFF switch shows ON
.
4. The Cellular data settings show the Data usage, Carrier, Billing cycle, and any data limit warnings associated with your
specific data plan. Go to More Settings for an in-depth breakdown of data usage during the current and past billing
cycles.
