To ensure that no damage is done to the router or to
the SIM card, make sure the router is unplugged from
a power source before you insert or remove a SIM
card. Once the unit is powered down, pressing gently
on the installed SIM card will eject the card from the
device.
Insert your SIM card into the device as shown here.
Please note that the router accepts only nano-sized
SIM cards.
• Connect the supplied power adapter to the router.
Plug adapter into unswitched electrical outlet.
Make sure your SIM card is properly installed.
• Connect your computer or a network switch to one
of the two LAN ports using the supplied ethernet
cable. Alternatively, you can connect other devices
wirelessly using Wi-Fi.
• To obtain a better radio signal, you can adjust the
router’s location and direction. Often a windowsill
or exterial wall is a good location. Refer to the
signal strength LED indicators to determine
whether the router is receiving a strong signal.
