You can pair your X700 with an Inseego router using Wi-Fi or Ethernet.

Pairing with Wi-Fi

To initiate Wi-Fi pairing, use the interactive device display on your router or the admin web UI.

  • Press and hold the display button.
  • When prompted, press the Mesh button on the back of the X700.

NOTE: You must push the Mesh button within 30 seconds.

  • Wait - pairing takes 2 - 3 minutes. The light on the X700 and the
    Wi-Fi status LED icon on the router blink blue while pairing.
  • When the display shows Wi-Fi Mesh: Paired! and the light on the mesh node is a solid color, pairing is complete.
