3.4 Review
Step 1 Check antenna connection.
Step 2 Check SIM/UIM card installation to confirm SIM/UIM card is available.
Step 3 Power on H8951 3G/4G router, the LEFT SIM slot is SIM 1, take it as a example:
After connect power 14s, router RUN solid light, means router system works ok.
After connect power 25s, NET solid light, means router found the module.
After connect power 25s, NET blinking quickly means router start to dial.
After connect power 30s, RF shows the signal level.
After connect power 45s, NET solid light means 3G/4G connected, if blinking slowly, means
Use a small stick push the yellow button on router, the SIM slot will pop out as Figure 3-1
shows.
---END
