1) You may be in a location where there is no GSM/GPRS
/EDGE/WCDMA/HSDPA (HSUPA) network coverage, such as an
underground parking garages, tunnels or a remote rural area.
Change your location to nd a place where there is
GSM/GPRS/EDGE/WCDMA/HSDPA (HSUPA) network coverage.
2) The Adapter may not be properly connected. Close the
management software and carefully pull out the Adapter. Plug
it into your computer again to check the signal.

TP-LINK 3G client driver and then plug the Adapter into
another USB port to reinstall the driver.
