Connect to the Mobile Router Network
You can connect your computers and mobile devices to the mobile router WiFi network.
You can also connect a computer to the mobile router through a tethered connection
using the USB cable that came in the package with the mobile router.
Note:
If you set up your computer to use a static IP address, change the settings so
that it uses Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
