How do I connect to the mobile network?

There are three options available to connect to the mobile network.

The first option is to power on the Router with the mobile broadband data card inserted. Then press the Data Card Connect/Disconnect button on the front panel of the Router. The Router will connect to the mobile network via the mobile broadband data card. If this is successful, the Data Card LED on the Router will light up.

The second option is to log onto the Router via the Web-based Utility. On the first screen you see, the Basic Setup screen, click the Connect button near the top of the screen. The Router will connect to the mobile network via the mobile broadband data card. If this is successful, the Mobile Connection line will say, “Connected” instead of “Disconnected.”

The third option is to enable the Router’s Auto Connect feature. This will enable the Router to automatically connect to the mobile network whenever it is powered on. As with the second option, this can be done using the Web-based Utility of the Router. On the first screen you see, the Basic Setup screen, click the Mobile Network tab. On the Mobile Network screen, there is an Auto Connect option at the top of the screen. Click the Enable radio button, and then click the Save Settings button. After the webpage has refreshed, click the Basic Setup tab. On the Basic Setup screen, click the Connect button to connect to the mobile network. The next time the Router is powered on, it will automatically connect to the mobile network.
