Chapter 1 Introduction
Note: You must insert the SIM card into the card slot before turning on the Zyxel Device.
You can install two external antennas to improve your wireless WAN signal strength. See Table 1 on page
16 and Table 2 on page 17 for the feature differences.
Wireless LAN (WiFi)
Wireless clients can connect to the Zyxel Device to access network resources and the Internet. The Zyxel
Device supports WiFi Protected Setup (WPS), which allows you to quickly set up a wireless network with
strong security.
Figure 1 Zyxel Device’s Wireless LAN
Internet Access
Your Zyxel Device provides shared Internet access by connecting to a cellular network. A computer can
connect to the Zyxel Device’s PoE injector or a LAN port for configuration through the Web
Configurator.
Figure 2 Zyxel Device’s Internet Access Application
Carrier Aggregation
Carrier Aggregation (CA) is a technology to deliver high downlink data rates by combining more than
one carrier in the same or different bands together.
LTE Series User’s Guide

Chapter 1 Introduction
Figure 3 Zyxel Device’s CA Application
Ethernet WAN
If you have another broadband modem or router available, you can use the Ethernet WAN port and
then connect it to the broadband modem or router. This way, you can access the Internet via an
Ethernet connection and still use the Firewall function on the Zyxel Device.
Figure 4 Zyxel Device’s Internet Access Application: Ethernet WAN
WAN Priority
The WAN connection priority is as follows:
1 Ethernet WAN
2 Cellular WAN (3G/4G)
1.3 Manage the Zyxel Device
Use any of the following methods to manage the Zyxel Device.
• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the Zyxel Device using a
(supported) web browser. See Chapter 3 on page 25.
LTE Series User’s Guide
19
Chapter 1 Introduction
• LTE Ally is available in Google Play and the App Store. Use the LTE Ally app on your mobile device to
do the following:
• Show how to adjust the Zyxel Device mounting angle to find the optimal LTE signal strength to/from
the LTE base station
• Check your LTE speed and LTE data usage
1.4 Good Habits for Managing the Zyxel Device
Do the following things regularly to make the Zyxel Device more secure and to manage the Zyxel
Device more effectively.
• Change the password. Use a password that is not easy to guess and that consists of different types of
characters, such as numbers and letters.
• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier working
configuration may be useful if the Zyxel Device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you forget your
password to access the Web Configurator, you will have to reset the Zyxel Device to its factory
default settings. If you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally reconfigure the Zyxel Device. You could simply restore your last configuration. Write down any
information your ISP provides you.
