Introduction
HomeFusion Broadband service has been re-branded with the following new name: LTE Internet (Installed). Although the name has changed, it does not impact the service in any way. This user manual will continue to utilize the HomeFusion Broadband name to describe the service.
This User Manual helps you get to know your HomeFusion Broadband service and guides you through the configuration of features of the HomeFusion Broadband Router.

1.1 Basic Concepts
The Verizon 4G LTE Network
4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) is the latest standard for mobile Internet access and offers superior connection speeds compared to 3G, the predecessor.
The HomeFusion Broadband Router only supports 4G LTE to access the Internet. It is not possible to fall back to 3G in the event of a temporary service interruption of the 4G LTE network.
Your Home Network
4G LTE Network
MoCA connection
Wired Ethernet connection
WiFi connection
HBA
HBR
Your Home Networ
Your home network consists of the following components:
One HomeFusion Broadband Antenna (HBA)
One HomeFusion Broadband Router (HBR)
One or more network devices (computers, network printers and so on)
MoCA is a standard for home networking over a coax connection.
The HBA
The HBA is mounted on the side of the house and is the interface between the Verizon 4G LTE Network and your MoCA devices.
The HBR
The HomeFusion Broadband Router is located in your home and is responsible for interconnecting:
WiFi devices (for example: portable computers, wireless printers, smartphones
with WiFi support and so on)
Wired Ethernet devices (for example: computers).
MoCA devices (for example: the HBA)
This means that all devices that are connected to the HBR will also have access to the HBA, which in turn provides access to the Verizon 4G LTE Network.

Setup procedure
Complete the following steps to setup the HBR:
1 If a different router was being used previously, disconnect it. Remove all
components, including power supplies and cables; they will not work with the HBR.
2 Connect the HBR to the HBA.
For more information, see “2.1 Connecting the HBR to the MoCA Network” on
page 14.
3 Power on the HBR.
For more information, see “2.2 Powering on the HBR” on page 15.
4 Connect your network devices.
For more information, see “2.3 Connecting Your Network Devices” on page 16.
Normally, the Verizon Wireless technician already took care of the installation of your HBR and HBA. So the only thing that you might need to do is add new network devices to your network.
In case of problems
If you have trouble configuring the HBR, try the following:
1 Refer to “Support” on page 136.
2 If you did not find a solution in the Troubleshooting section, call the Customer
Care at 800-922-0204.
Optional configuration
After completing the setup procedure, the HBR is ready for use. Optionally, you can now:
Further configure the HBR to your needs (for example, change the wireless
security) using the Graphical User Interface (GUI) of the HBR. For more information, see “Graphical User Interface (GUI)” on page 26.
Wall mount the HBR. For more information, see “2.4 Wall Mounting the HBR

Introduction
This section helps you to connect your network devices (for example, a computer, a network printer and so on) to the HBR network.
Connection options
If you want to connect your computer to the HBR using:
A wireless connection, you can connect your computer:
Via WPS push button configuration, proceed with “2.3.1 Connecting Your
Wireless Devices via WPS” on page 17.
By manually entering the settings, proceed with “2.3.2 Connecting Your Wireless
Device Manually” on page 19.
A wired (Ethernet) connection, proceed with “2.3.3 Wired Connection to the HBR”
on page 23.
DMS-CTC-20110909-0007 v2.0 16
2 Setup
2.3.1 Connecting Your Wireless Devices via WPS
WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) allows you to add new wireless devices to your local network in a swift and easy way, without the need to enter any of your wireless settings (network name, wireless key, encryption type).
Requirements
Your wireless device must support WPS. Check the documentation of your
wireless device for this.
Both Windows 7 and Windows Vista Service Pack 1 have native WPS support.
The HBR must use WPA2 (default setting), WPA+WPA2 or WPA-TKIP.
It is not possible to use WPS when the HBR uses WEP or no encryption.
Procedure
Proceed as follows:
1 Briefly press the WPS button on the HBR:
WPS
2 The WPS button LED starts blinking amber. This indicates that the HBR is now
searching for wireless devices that are in registration mode. You now have two minutes to start WPS on your wireless device.
3 Start WPS on your wireless device.
4 The HBR is now exchanging the security settings.
5 At the end of the procedure the status of the WPS LED will change to either of the
following:
Solid green
This indicates that you have successfully registered your wireless device. You
are now connected to the HBR network.
Blinking red at a constant rate
This indicates that the HBR could not find your wireless device. Use the same
procedure to try again (you do not need to wait until the LED turns off).
DMS-CTC-20110909-0007 v2.0 17
2 Setup
Blinking red with a pause pattern
This indicates that another WPS session is already ongoing. Wait for two
minutes and then try again.
Troubleshooting
If you are having trouble connecting your wireless device via WPS, configure your wireless client manually. For more information, see “2.3.2 Connecting Your Wireless
Device Manually” on page 19.
DMS-CTC-20110909-0007 v2.0 18
2 Setup
2.3.2 Connecting Your Wireless Device Manually
Requirements
