Charging the Battery
If the Mobile WiFi has not been used for a long time or if the battery is fully depleted, the
Mobile WiFi may not power on immediately after the charger is plugged in. Please charge the
battery for a while before attempting to power on the Mobile WiFi.
Method 1: Use the charger to charge the device
Note:
Only use chargers compatible with
the Mobile WiFi and provided by a
designated manufacturer. Use of
an incompatible charger or one
from an unknown manufacturer
may cause the Mobile WiFi to
malfunction, fail, or could even
cause a fire. Such use voids all
warranties, whether expressed or implied, on the product.
The charger is an optional accessory. If it is not included in the package, you may
contact an authorized dealer to buy a charger compatible with the Mobile WiFi.

14
The Mobile WiFi's charger model is HW-050100XYW. X and Y represent letters or
numbers that vary by region. For details about the specific charger model, contact an
authorized dealer.

Turning on the Mobile WiFi
Press and hold the button until the screen lights up,
indicating that the Mobile WiFi is turned on.
You can use the menu screen or log in to the web
management page and turn the fast boot function on or
off. This function greatly reduces the Mobile WiFi's
boot-up time.
Note:
Press and hold the button to turn off the Mobile WiFi.
Verifying the PIN
If the Mobile WiFi's network parameters have been correctly configured but you cannot access
the Internet after powering it on, PIN verification may be enabled. Log in to the web
management page and enter the PIN when prompted. To avoid entering the PIN every time
you power on the Mobile WiFi, disable PIN verification from the web management page.
The PIN/PUK is delivered with your SIM card. For more details, contact your service provider.

16
Connecting to the Internet
Using an LTE, 3G, or 2G Network
By default, the Mobile WiFi's management parameters have been preset according to your
operator's requirements. The Mobile WiFi will be connected to the Internet after its startup.
If data is transmitted, the Mobile WiFi will automatically connect to the Internet. If data is not
transmitted for a period of time, the Mobile WiFi will automatically disconnect from the
network connection.
Note:
You can use the menu screen or log in to the web management page to enable or disable
the automatic dialing while roaming function. If this function is turned off, when the
Mobile WiFi enters a roaming network, it will automatically disconnect from the Internet
connection that has already been established. You will need to manually establish this
network connection again.

17
Using a Wi-Fi Network
1. Ensure that the Wi-Fi extender function is enabled.
2. The Mobile WiFi automatically connects to a Wi-Fi hotspot set by your service provider or
yourself. When the Mobile WiFi is connected to a Wi-Fi network, and the Wi-Fi
hotspot SSID are displayed on the screen.
Note:
After connecting to a Wi-Fi network, the Mobile WiFi automatically reconnects to the
network the next time you are under that network's coverage.
For details about adding Wi-Fi hotspots, see "Adding a Wi-Fi Hotspot".

18
Logging In to the Web Management Page
1. Make sure the connection between the Mobile WiFi and the Wi-Fi device or computer is
working normally.
2. Open the browser, and enter http://192.168.8.1 in the address box.
Note:
If the IP address conflicts with other IP addresses on the network, the IP address of the
Mobile WiFi automatically changes. Check the current IP address on the Mobile WiFi
screen.
3. Enter the user name and password to log in to the web management page.
Note:
The default user name is admin.
The default password is admin.

19
Battery Saving Mode
If the Mobile WiFi has been inactive for some time, the Mobile WiFi enters the standby mode,
in which the display screen turns off. Pressing any button causes the display screen to light up.
When the Mobile WiFi is being powered only by the battery, you can choose to enable or
disable the automatic Wi-Fi off function. If this function is enabled and if no Wi-Fi devices
access the Mobile WiFi for a period of time, the Wi-Fi turns off automatically. You can press any
button to turn the Wi-Fi on again.
