CAUTION: Use only batteries and chargers that have been approved by Inseego for optimal
performance and safe operation of your M2000.

Replacing the Battery

CAUTION: Whenever you remove or insert the battery, ensure your M2000 is not connected to any
device or power source. Never use tools, knives, keys, pens or any type of object to force the door open or to remove the battery. Using any of these types of objects could result in puncturing the battery.

Battery Tips

WARNING! Always use only approved batteries and chargers with your M2000. The warranty does not
cover damage caused by non-approved batteries and/or chargers.
Do not use sharp objects or use excessive force to remove the battery or to access the battery
well, this may damage the M2000 and the battery.
The battery discharges more rapidly as additional devices access your M2000.
Battery life depends on the network, signal strength, temperature, features, and accessories
you use.
New batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time may take more time to charge.
When storing your battery, keep it uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place.
When charging your battery, keep it near room temperature.
Never expose batteries to temperatures below -20°C (4°F) or above 60°C (140°F).
Never leave the M2000 in an unattended vehicle where it can get too hot or too cold.
Some batteries perform best after several full charge/discharge cycles.
It is normal for batteries to gradually wear down and require longer charging times. If you
notice a change in your battery life, it is probably time to purchase a new battery.
5G MiFi M2000 USER GUIDE 15

NOTE: If Wi-Fi is OFF, the only way to connect devices to the M2000 is by tethering with the USB cable.
5G MiFi M2000 USER GUIDE 20

Band Selection

Use the default values as they appear or adjust them for your environment.
Each network can be accessed over two bands: 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz:
The 2.4 GHz band is supported by all devices with Wi-Fi and should be used by devices that are a
few years old or older. This band passes through walls better and propagates over longer distances, so it may have a longer range.
The 5 GHz band is best for newer devices. It offers better throughput, reduced interference and
faster data speeds, but does not pass through walls as well as the 2.4 GHz band.
NOTE: You must assign at least one band for the guest network before it can be turned on.
When you make a selection, M2000 notifies you that it is applying changes and returns to the screen when finished.
Tap Help me choose for more information.
