techniques.

• 

My Power LED is not Illuminating.

Make sure that one end of the power cord is securely connected to an 
active outlet and that the other end is properly connected to the power 
supply.

Make sure the power connector is securely inserted into the rear DC 
12V port on the back of the base station.

• 

My GPS LED is not illuminating blue even after a few minutes.

Note: 

The first time the base station is used after installation or after 

relocation, it can take up to one hour to acquire a GPS connection. 

The GPS antenna cannot obtain a signal.

If possible, move the base station to a location with fewer surrounding 
obstructions. The new location should be in an open area and closer to 
a window, if possible.

If the preceding fails, remove the power cord from the wall outlet for at 
least 10 seconds.

Reconnect the power connector to the DC 12V port and plug the power 
cord into the wall outlet. This allows the base station to re-initiate its 
startup sequence where it detects the Ethernet connection, GPS signal, 
and communication with the Verizon Wireless network.

If relocation does not produce a GPS signal, uninstall the GPS antenna 
from the base station and relocate it to receive a stronger signal. 

• 

My WAN LED is blue but I cannot place a call via my Verizon 

Wireless Network Extender.

Check that the router is communicating properly with your ISP. The 
Internet activity LED on your router should be blinking. For further 
router troubleshooting tips, please review the router manufacturer's 
printed or online documentation.
