1. Product Overview
1.1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the 3G WiFi Router (WIF
The WIFI-H200 is a new kind of wireless router that has built-in 3G modem, which lets you create your
own WiFi hotspot via 3G (HSDPA/HSUPA) network at families, small offices, home offices (SOHO),
vehicles, and anywhere.
You just need to insert an HSDPA SIM card into the socket on the router's rear side, and then each
WiFi-enabled device (such as a notebook, desktop PC, PDA, game console, cell phone, MP3 player)
can connect to the Internet when within the range of the router. The router can support 20 to 30
users.
It can also help you share your ADSL broadband connection quickly and easily.
