Battery Settings
The mobile hotspot, by default, is configured to optimize battery life. Battery life is
affected by:
•
Standby time
•
Data throughput
•
Mobile Broadband signal strength (the better the signal, the longer the battery
life)
Recharge the Battery
The battery comes partially charged. You can recharge the battery from a wall
socket or from the USB port on your computer.
To recharge the battery from a wall socket (Fastest option):
1. Attach one end of the micro USB cable to the mobile hotspot and attach the
other end to the AC adapter (included).
2. Plug the AC adapter into a wall socket. The battery icon includes a lightning
bolt to indicate that the battery is charging. (
