4.1 Overview

This chapter discusses the LTE Device’s Broadband screens. Use these screens to configure your LTE Device for Internet access.

A WAN (Wide Area Network) connection is an outside connection to another network or the Internet. It connects your private networks, such as a LAN (Local Area Network) and other networks, so that a computer in one location can communicate with computers in other locations.

This LTE Device supports LTE connection for the WAN only.
