Features
Voicemail:
Your home phone's voicemail works like your T-Mobile wireless phone's voicemail.
To access voicemail, dial 123 on your home phone that is connected to your T-Mobile Router.
The voicemail system will prompt you to type a password, which will be the last four digits
of your new home phone number.
After you are in the voicemail box, follow the tutorial to setup your voicemail and change
your password to any 4-7 digit code.
Accessing your voicemail from another phone:
1. Type your T-Mobile home phone number and then
press the (*) star key to interrupt the greeting.
2. At the prompt, type your password.
Notes: You will know you have a new voicemail when the blue LED on your router is
blinking or you hear a stuttered dial tone on your home phone.
You can also use a compatible answering machine with your home phone while
plugged into your T-Mobile Router. Simply make sure to set your answering machine
to pick up by the third ring so that the call does not route to your T-Mobile Voicemail.
Directory Assistance:
Get the phone number you need anytime. An operator is ready to assist you 24/7 by
dialing 411 (charges apply). You can also get weather updates, the latest sports scores,
and more.

Caller ID:
This feature displays the incoming caller's phone number right on your phone (requires a phone

calling.
Why can't I wirelessly connect to my HiPort?
Make sure that the Wireless Network Name (SSID) and security settings are the same on your
HiPort, computer, and the device you are trying to connect wirelessly.
Change the channel on your HiPort to reduce interference. Channels 1, 6, and 11 usually give
the best results. Move your HiPort so it is at least three feet away from other electrical devices
that create radio frequency noise; such as cordless phones, microwave ovens, computer
monitors, and electric motors.
Place your HiPort in the most central location of the house and not in a closet, cabinet, or
garage.
Does it matter which Phone slot (Line 1 or 2) is used for inserting the SIM card?
® . The Wizard is not No, it does not matter which slot you use, but you need to use the corresponding phone port.
So if you use Line 1, you need to use the Phone1 port on the back of your HiPort for the
connection.
Why can't I connect to the Internet?
Check that the Power LED is solid green, the Internet LED is flashing green, and one of the
numbered Ethernet LEDs is green. Check that the modem is connected to your HiPort's Internet
port, that the computer is connected to one of the numbered Ethernet ports, and that your
HiPort's power adapter is connected to your router and to an electrical outlet. Power off all
devices, then power on each device in this order: modem, HiPort, and then computer.
Click Save Settings to activate your HiPort's
security settings. Any device, including your
Wi-Fi enabled mobile phone, will need to use
this passkey to access the Internet through
your HiPort.

Note: The security key can be sent to your HotSpot-
enabled mobile phone using the "Get Security Key"
option on your mobile phone's Wi-Fi menu.
Congratulations!
Your HiPort is now ready to use.
Note: If you want other wireless devices
to connect to your new HiPort, make sure
they are updated with the new information
you have just entered. (SSID and Security
Key).
If you want to avoid reconfiguring the
wireless devices that connected to your
previous router, you should use the same
settings (SSID and Security Key) in your
new HiPort as your previous router.

Troubleshooting
If you cannot make a call from your landline phone, there are 3 things you need to verify:
1
You must have Internet access through your HiPort(skip this step if you see a blue
light on your HiPort).
• Do a Internet search on your computer's browser (i.e. using www.google.com).
• If you get results, you have Internet access and can move to Step 2.
• If you don't get results (e.g., Error 404: Page Not Found), verify that you have plugged
your HiPort in and your setup looks exactly like screen 4 of Step 4 (Option A or Option B)
of the cabling section on the front of the poster.
• Next, unplug your HiPort and modem and then plug them back into the electrical
outlet (modem first). If you now have Internet access, it should take less than 15
minutes for the blue light to come on the router indicating you now have phone service.
• If you are unable to get Internet service, contact your Internet service provider.
2
You must see a blue light lit on your T-Mobile router (skip this step if it is lit).
• Disconnect your HiPort from the electrical outlet.
• Verify the SIM card is correctly seated in the SIM card holder (read SIM card insertion
on the front of this poster)
• After reseating the SIM card, make sure to unplug the HiPort and modem from
electrical outlet and then plug them back in (modem first).
• You may have to wait up to 15 minutes for the blue light to appear.
If the blue light still does not come on, you may have problems related to the
activation of your SIM card.
• Go to: www.mytmobile.com and login to your account.
• If nothing appears, your SIM card may not yet be active. If you are porting a number
in from another wireless or landline carrier, that process can sometimes take up to 10
days.
• If you are able to login, check the 911 tab and verify that you have registered your
address for 911 emergency services.
• If you are able to login to your account and see that you are registered for 911
services and yet do not have a blue light, we recommend you call Customer Care (611
from your mobile phone).
• If you cannot login and want to verify that your account is active, call sales at
1-800-TMOBILE.
3
You must have your landline phone connected to the correct phone port on the
HiPort.
If you placed your SIM card into the "Line 1" SIM card holder, then you should plug
your landline phone into the "Phone 1" phone port on the back of your router ("Line 2"
corresponds to "Phone 2").

on the HiPort. You will also receive a dial tone on the connected phone.
Can I have two home phone lines?
Yes. You must activate a second line of service through Customer Care by calling
1-800-937-8997. You will receive a second SIM card to be installed in your HiPort.

How do I know if security is enabled on my HiPort?
