Insert The Sim Card; Position Your Router - NETGEAR MBR1515 User Manual

Insert the SIM Card

If your router did not come with a SIM already installed, then gently insert an active Verizon
SIM card into the SIM card slot on the back of the router. You should hear a "click" sound
when the SIM card has been inserted properly. The SIM card can be acquired from your
authorized Verizon wireless retailer.

Position Your Router

The router lets you access your network from anywhere within the operating range of your
wireless network. However, the operating distance or range of your wireless connection can
vary significantly depending on the physical placement of your router. For example, the
thickness and number of walls the wireless signal passes through can limit the range.
Use the Signal Quality LED on the front panel to position the router for best signal strength.
Also for best results, place your router:
• On an upper floor of a multifloor home or office.
• Close to a window but avoiding direct sunlight. A window location gives the best
conditions for receiving a strong 4G signal strength.
• Near the center of the area where your computers and other devices operate, and
preferably within line of sight to your wireless devices.
• So it is accessible to an AC power outlet and near Ethernet cables for wired computers.
• In an elevated location such as a high shelf, keeping the number of walls and ceilings
between the router and your other devices to a minimum.
