Configuring MiFi Settings

You can configure the Wi-Fi settings on your device using the easy-to-use MiFi Settings

web-based

User Interface (MiFi Settings). It allows you to manage, monitor, and customize your Wi-Fi and

4G LTE mobile broadband connection.

The following sections describe how to connect to MiFi Settings, as well as each screen and the

corresponding functionality.

Connect to MiFi Settings

To connect to MiFi settings, follow these steps:

➊

Turn on your computer and turn on the MiFi 4620L device.

MiFi 4620L's LED should be slow blinking green (4G) or violet (3G), indicating the device is in

service and ready to connect. MiFi 4620L broadcasts its own wireless network.

On your computer, use the Wi-Fi manager (Windows) or the AirPort menu bar icon

(Mac OS X) to connect wirelessly to the MiFi 4620L wireless network.

Tip!

The steps to connect to a Wi-Fi network vary depending on your operating system and whether

you use the native application or third-party software. Generally, you click an icon in the Windows

notification area where you can select

View Available Wireless Networks,

or click the Airport

icon in the menu bar on a Mac. If you are unfamiliar with wireless networking on your computer,

consult the computer help system.
