QUICK START

BASIC SETUP

1. Insert an activated SIM
A wireless broadband data plan must be added to your Cradlepoint AER3100. Wireless broadband data plans are
available from wireless carriers such as Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, EE, and Vodafone. The SIM must be provisioned
with the carrier. Contact your carrier for details about selecting a data plan and about the process for
provisioning your SIM.
Once you have an activated SIM, insert it into the integrated modem. Insert the SIM card into the slot marked
SIM 1 (use the other slot, SIM 2, for a secondary/backup SIM).
Insert the card with the notch-end first and the gold contacts facing down – it will click into place.
2. Insert the removable modem

1. On front of router, press two tabs on modem cover together and pull cover straight out. Remove Main, Aux,

2. Slide modem(s) into USB port(s).
3. Reattach the modem cover. If desired, use a Phillips screwdriver to secure modem door screws to bottom
