Use Your Mobile Hotspot
Rev 1 Oct.13 31
· Always — The mobile hotspot automatically attempts to connect to the mobile
broadband network when powered on. You may incur additional roaming charges
if you are outside of your network provider’s coverage area.
4. From the Network Mode drop-down menu, select the type of mobile broadband
network that the device can connect to (for example, Auto, WCDMA only,
LTE only, etc.)
Note: For most users, it’s best to leave the default setting (Auto). When this option is selected,
your mobile hotspot connects to the fastest service available. If you change this setting, the
mobile hotspot will not be able to connect if the option you choose is not available. For example, if
you select LTE only and you are in an area where there is no LTE network available, the mobile
hotspot will not be able to connect to a mobile broadband network until you change this setting.
5. If you want to select a mobile network other than your network service provider’s
when roaming, click
Scan , and then select the network from the list that appears.
6. Click Submit . (Submit button appears once you change any of the displayed
preferences.)
