User Guide

You can use this section to turn Wi-Fi off and select bands and band settings.

Allow Wi-Fi Devices to Connect to this Device: Wi-Fi is on by default. If it is turned off, all Wi-Fi connected devices are disconnected from your MIFI and all other setting options on this page disappear. The only way to connect devices will be with an Ethernet cable or USB.

NOTE: This selection affects both the primary and guest network.

BAND SELECTION

Each network can be accessed over two bands: 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz:

• The 2.4 GHz band is supported by all devices with Wi-Fi and should be used by devices that are a few years old or older. This band passes through walls better and propagates over longer distances, so it may have a longer range.
• The 5 GHz band is best for newer devices. It offers better throughput, reduced interference, and faster data speeds, but does not pass through walls as well as the 2.4 GHz band.

NOTE: The guest network must be assigned at least one band before it can be turned on.

BAND SETTINGS

Wi-Fi Standard: Use the dropdown to select a Wi-Fi standard.

Bandwidth: Leave bandwidth at the default setting unless you experience interference with other Wi-Fi devices.

Channel: Leave the channel set to Automatic unless you need to choose a particular channel for your environment.
