Battery Life
The mobile hotspot is configured (by default) 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)
Wi-Fi Range
• Long — Extends Wi-Fi range but decreases battery life.
• Medium — Balances Wi-Fi range and battery life.
• Short — Reduces Wi-Fi range but extends battery life.
28 Use Your Mobile Hotspot
There are several methods you can use to extend the
battery life:
• Adjust Wi-Fi settings:
• Shorten the Wi-Fi range — If the devices you are connecting
to your Wi-Fi network are always near the mobile hotspot
device, shorten the Wi-Fi range.
• Set the Wi-Fi Standby timer to a shorter period — Reduce
the amount of time to wait when no devices are connected
to either Wi-Fi network before going into sleep mode
(Wi-Fi radio powers off).
• Adjust display settings:
• Dim the screen — Reduce the LCD's brightness level.
• Set the Display Timeout to a shorter period — Reduce the
amount of time to wait without the LCD being used before
the screen goes dark.
Extend Battery Life
You can choose Wi-Fi and display settings on the mobile
hotspot or the AT&T Wi-Fi Manager home page to extend the
mobile hotspot's battery life.
