How It Works

The AT&T Wireless Internet device uses the AT&T cellular network to provide phone service to your cordless or corded home phone(s) and Internet access to your computer and Wi-Fi enabled devices. It does not require the use of a home phone wall jack, unlike a traditional home phone service. Place it anywhere in your home where you have a strong wireless signal. The AT&T Wireless Internet device provides many calling services for your home phone(s), such as Voicemail, Caller Number ID, Call Waiting, Call Forwarding, and Three-Way Calling. It also features a backup battery to provide service in the case of a power outage.

Installation

Before You Begin

The AT&T Wireless Internet device works exclusively with the AT&T cellular network and DOES NOT use your home phone wall jacks.

Your device should be located:

• Where you have a strong signal from a cell tower, typically near a window or outer wall.

Signal strength may vary in dierent parts

of your home.

• Near an electrical wall outlet.

• In the general area where you’ll be using your home phone, computer, or Wi-Fi enabled devices.

Select which phone and computer/Wi-Fi enabled device you will use with the AT&T Wireless Internet device:

• A cordless phone system with multiple handsets should be used to place phones throughout your home.

• If using an existing phone, unplug it from the wall jack.

• For Internet access, you can simultaneously connect up to twenty (20) devices per Wi-Fi network (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz), forty (40) total, and one (1) via Ethernet.

Step 1: Setting Up The AT&T Wireless Internet Device

A Install The Backup Battery

1. Open the battery compartment by pushing the tab in and then liing up the cover.

Helpful Tips

Home Answering Machines

If you choose to use your home answering machine instead of the voicemail provided by your AT&T Wireless Internet device, you will need to set your answering machine to pick up calls before four (4) rings, so that it picks up before the network voicemail service. If you have a standalone answering machine, you can connect it to the second “Phone” port on the back of your AT&T Wireless Internet device.

Alternatively, you can call AT&T Customer Service at 1-800-331-0500 to turn o the

network voicemail feature.

Adjusting Volume

Use your home phone’s volume adjustment, if available. Alternatively, the volume of the AT&T Wireless Internet device can be adjusted. Four volume levels are available (level 1 through level 4), with the default setting at level 4. While on a call, press ** to decrease the volume. Press ## to increase the volume. Each time ** or ## is pressed, the volume is decreased or increased by one level.

Powering On/O

The On/O button is used to turn your AT&T Wireless Internet device on or o. When powered o, the AT&T Wireless Internet device will no longer send or receive calls, but

it will continue to charge the backup battery if still connected to the wall outlet.

To turn on your AT&T Wireless Internet device, press the On/O button so that it is depressed. The Power light will turn solid green if connected to a power supply;

it will blink green if on backup battery power. To turn o your AT&T Wireless Internet

device, push the On/O button so that it is not depressed.

TTY Support

TTY (Text Telephony) and TDD (Telecommunications Device for the Deaf) are supported by the AT&T Wireless Internet device. In order to use the TTY network, you must have a TTY-compatible phone and be in TTY mode. Note that most digital wireless devices are TTY-compatible.

To set the TTY mode or turn TTY support o, dial *889n# (*TTYn#) on your connected phone, replacing n with one of the following numbers:

• Replace n with 0 for TTY O mode. Users who can hear and talk can turn o TTY support. This is the default setting.

• Replace n with 1 for TTY Full mode. Users who cannot talk or hear can use this mode to send and receive text messages through a TTY device.

• Replace n with 2 for VCO mode. Users who can talk but cannot hear can use this mode to talk through the phone and receive responses via text messages.

• Replace n with 3 for HCO mode. Users who can hear but cannot talk can use this mode to listen to calls and respond via text messages.

Important Information

E911 Service

For emergency calls, you may have to provide your location address to the 911 operator.

Power Outages

The AT&T Wireless Internet device has a backup battery, for use in the event of a power outage, with talk time of approximately 180 minutes and standby time of approximately 29 hours (depending on environmental factors). In the event of a power outage (commercial power no longer available), the AT&T Wireless Internet

device will automatically begin using the backup battery, provided there is sucient battery charge le. If there is no battery charge at the time of the power outage, the

device will not be operable.

To make calls using your backup battery, you must plug a corded phone or landline phone into one of the “Phone” ports on the AT&T Wireless Internet device.

When the AT&T Wireless Internet device is using the backup battery there are three Power saving modes which can be applied in order to ensure the maximum time of functioning telephone services. The default setting is the Balanced (Temporary connectivity) mode. For this setting Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity will be disabled

aer a set period of time (ve minutes by default) or once the battery reaches 50%

charge. The Maximum Saving (No connectivity) mode disables Wi-Fi and Ethernet while operating on battery power. The other setting is None in which all functionality remains enabled and will function normally for the duration of the battery’s charge. In either power saving mode, pressing the WPS button will cause the device to return to normal (no power saving) mode.

If you experience a power outage and your backup battery is fully depleted, it will be necessary to restart your device when power is restored by toggling the On/O button; the Power light will turn solid green.

Backup Battery

A new backup battery should last for approximately ve (5) years, but the life of any backup battery can be adversely aected by environmental conditions like moisture

and heat. To get the longest service from your backup battery, do not place the AT&T Wireless Internet device in direct sunlight or in wet or extremely cold environments.

To test the condition of your backup battery, make sure the AT&T Wireless Internet device is powered on. Unplug the AT&T Wireless Internet device from the wall power outlet. If the Battery light turns red, then the backup battery may need to be replaced. If the AT&T Wireless Internet device does not remain on once unplugged from the wall power outlet, then the backup battery needs to be replaced.

It is recommended that you test your backup battery charge at least once per year and replace it if necessary.

To order a replacement backup battery and for cost and warranty information, visit att.com and search for the keywords “Wireless Internet battery.”

Device Compatibility

The AT&T Wireless Internet device is not compatible with wireless messaging services, home security systems, fax service, medical alert systems, medical monitoring systems, credit card machines, IP/PBX Phone systems, or dial-up Internet service. May not be compatible with your DVR/Satellite systems; please check with your provider. DSL customers should contact their provider before transferring a phone number to ensure uninterrupted DSL Internet service.

The AT&T Wireless Internet device cannot be used to make 500, 700, 900, 976, 0+ collect, operator-assisted, or dial-around calls (e.g., 1010-XXXX).

In-Home Wiring

Interconnecting with home telephone wiring is not necessary but is possible;

however, it is not recommended unless you possess sucient knowledge of electrical

systems.

Use with home wiring requires the physical disconnection from other services,

including the landline coming into your home. Use of a qualied licensed electrician is

highly recommended. Improper installation may result in phone equipment damage

or even a re.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of phone do I need to work with the AT&T Wireless Internet device?

Most standard touch-tone phones may be used. Rotary phones are not supported.
