Section 1 - Product Overview
Introduction
The D-Link Wireless AC750 4G LTE Router allows users to access worldwide mobile broadband networks. Once connected,
users can transfer data, stream media, and send SMS messages. Simply insert a 3G / 4G SIM card to share your 3G / 4G
Internet connection through a secure 802.11n wireless network, or by using any of the four 10/100 Ethernet ports.
Keep your wireless network safe with WPA/WPA2 wireless encryption. The DWR-953 utilizes dual-active firewalls (SPI and
NAT) to prevent potential attacks across the Internet, and includes MAC address filtering to control access to your network.
The Wireless AC750 4G LTE Router can be installed quickly and easily almost anywhere, making it great for when you need
an impromptu wireless network, or wherever conventional network access is unavailable.

Section 2 - Installation
Before You Begin
Installation
This section will guide you through the installation process. Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router in an enclosed area
such as a closet, cabinet, or in an attic or garage.
1.
Ensure that your DWR-953 Wireless AC750 4G LTE Router is disconnected and powered off.
2.
To use your 3G / 4G Internet connection, insert a 3G / 4G SIM card into the SIM card slot on the back of the device.
3.
Insert your Internet/WAN network cable into the WAN port on the back of the router.
Note:
The 3G/4G connection can also be used as a backup WAN. Once a backup is configured, the router will automatically use 3G / 4G for the
Internet connection if the Ethernet WAN is not available.
4.
Insert the Ethernet cable into any LAN Port 1 on the back panel of the DWR-953 Wireless AC750 4G LTE Router and an available Ethernet port
on the network adapter in the computer you will use to configure the router.
Note:
The DWR-953 Wireless AC750 4G LTE Router LAN Ports are Auto-MDI/MDIX, so both patch and crossover Ethernet cables can be used.
5.
Connect the power adapter to the socket on the back panel of your DWR-953 Wireless AC750 4G LTE Router. Plug the other end of the power
adapter into a wall outlet or power strip and turn the device on.

The LEDs on the front panel will flash on and off as the DWR-953 Wireless AC750 4G LTE Router performs initialization and Internet connection
processes.
