Unable to connect hotspot to your service
provider’s mobile broadband network
If your Hotspot will not connect to you service provider’s network:
• Make sure your SIM account is active.
• If you use a pre-paid or pay-as-you-go SIM, make sure the account has a positive
balance.
• If your mobile hotspot still will not connect, you may need to create or update an
account profile. (Your service provider may not be in the list of pre-configured
account profiles included with the hotspot, or the service provider may have
changed some details.) Get your account profile details from your service provider,
and then see
