This document provides a quick start guide for a router, detailing its functions, usage, and maintenance.
The router features several indicators and ports for various functions. On the front, there are indicators for power, network status, Wi-Fi®/WPS, LAN/WAN, and signal strength. The top of the device includes a power button and a WPS button, while the bottom houses the SIM card slot. The back of the router provides a power input, LAN/WAN ports, external antenna ports, a landline phone port, and a reset button.
To set up the router, ensure you use the correct SIM card type: mini-SIM (2FF), micro-SIM (3FF), or nano-SIM (4FF). Gently insert the SIM card into the slot until it clicks. To remove the SIM card, gently press it until it pops out. It is crucial not to insert or remove the SIM card while the router is running, as this may affect performance or damage the card. After inserting the SIM card, connect the power adapter to the router. The indicators will illuminate once the router successfully connects to a network. The network status indicator will show cyan, blue, or yellow for LTE/3G/2G connections, and white signal bars indicate signal strength. A red network status indicator means there is no network connection, and troubleshooting steps are provided in the FAQs.
Once the router is connected to a mobile data network, you can connect your computer or mobile phone to its Wi-Fi network to access the Internet. The default Wi-Fi network name (Wi-Fi Name) and password (Wi-Fi Password) are located on the label on the back of the router. When the Wi-Fi indicator is steady on, Wi-Fi is enabled. Wi-Fi can be enabled or disabled through the router's web-based management page. It is highly recommended to promptly change the default Wi-Fi network name and password on the web-based management page to prevent unauthorized access. After changing the password, you will need to reconnect to the router's Wi-Fi network using the new credentials.
The router can be managed via its web-based management page. The default IP address and password can be found on the label on the back of the router. More detailed information is available on the management page itself. For security, it is essential to change the default login password for the web-based management page to prevent unauthorized users from altering the router's settings. Additionally, the HUAWEI SmartHome app can be used to manage the router, and a QR code is provided for easy download of the app.
The router offers several optional configurations for enhanced connectivity. You can connect multiple devices, such as a computer or a landline phone, to the router to access the Internet or make telephone calls. The device also supports accessing the Internet through an Ethernet port. You can connect the router to a wall-mounted Ethernet port using an Ethernet cable. Before connecting, configure the relevant settings on the web-based management page. For specific details, it is advised to contact your carrier.
For improved signal reception, external antennas can be installed in addition to the built-in antenna. These antennas can be purchased from your carrier. If only one antenna is required, plug it into the designated socket. Before installing any external antennas, ensure the router is turned off and the power adapter is unplugged. External antennas are designed for indoor use only and should not be used during thunderstorms. Only use external antennas provided by your carrier.
The document includes a comprehensive FAQ section to address common issues. If you forget your Wi-Fi or login password, restoring the router to factory settings and using the default credentials is the solution. For network connection problems (red network status indicator), check if the SIM card is correctly inserted, restore factory settings, or contact your carrier to ensure the SIM card is active. If Internet speed is slow, check the signal strength indicator and adjust the router's position for better reception, restart the router and your device, or check if you have exceeded your data traffic limit. To connect a WPS-enabled device, ensure Wi-Fi is enabled on the client and press and hold the WPS button on the router for one second. If you cannot access the web-based management page, ensure your computer is connected via Ethernet or Wi-Fi, set your computer to obtain an IP address and DNS server automatically, restart your browser, or restore factory settings. If the content on the management page is not up to date, clear your browser's cache and re-launch the page. For any other issues, restart the router, restore factory settings, or contact your carrier.
