Step 3 Slide the card cover back onto the device.
Attention:
Before removing the SIM card, ensure that the device is powered off and disconnected from the power outlet.
You can place the device on a flat surface such as a table or a desk, or hang it on a wall. You can also use the table stand on the device to place it upright.
To use the table stand, insert its latches into the device's table stand slots, as shown in the following figure.
Note:
To ensure good signal reception, place the device in a high place or near a window.
To prevent interference caused by radio signals, place the device at least 1 meter (3.28 feet) away from other electrical devices.

In areas with poor network coverage, connect an external antenna to the device's external antenna port. Screw the external antenna in fully, as shown in the following figure.
Note:
Skip this section if you do not need to connect an external antenna to the device.
Before using an external antenna, log in to the web management page (http://192.168.1.1) and set antenna mode to external. For details, see the help information on the web management page.
Only use the external antenna indoors.
You cannot switch between the internal antenna and the external antenna while using a voice or data service.
If you want to use the device to make voice calls, connect the device to a telephone, as shown in the following figure.
Note:
Skip this section if you do not plan to use the device's voice services.
Radio signals can interfere with telephone call connection and quality. To eliminate the risk of possible interference, place the telephone at least 1 meter (3.28 feet) away from the device.
Do not connect the device to the telephone wall outlet (or any Public Switched Telephone Network), which will cause excessive heat or even damage the device.
4
Use an Ethernet cable to connect a computer to one of the device's LAN ports, as shown in the following figure.
When the connection between the device and the computer is set up, the device's corresponding LAN indicator turns on.
Ensure that the Ethernet cable is no longer than 100 meters (328 feet).
Connect a compatible power adapter to the device's power port, and then plug the power adapter into a power outlet.
Note:
Using an incompatible power adapter may damage the device.
After connecting to a power outlet, the device will power on automatically.
To manually power the device off, press and hold until all indicators turn off.
