manufacturer or user manual if you are unsure. If your laptop has a separate WiFi switch, turn this to the on
position.

1. By default the WiFi signal is secured by an encryption key. This is either printed on the barcode label inside
the battery compartment or on a separate sticker on the front of the device, along with the WiFi SSID
(network name). Make a note of this as it is required later in the process.

2. Press the power button on the MiFi.

3. Wait for the LED screen to power on and register to a mobile network. The mobile network name will be
displayed in the middle of the screen.

4. The device should attempt to auto connect to the internet. Once connected it will show connected in the
bottom right corner of the screen.

5. You should now use your normal WiFi manager on your computer to locate the MiFi network name (SSID)
and connect to it.
