Power up
2
Move the switch on the back of the Battery Backup Unit (BBU) to the "on"
position.
Your Wi-Fi Gateway is now powering up. Wait up to five minutes for the
Broadband and Service indicator lights to turn solid green.
During this time, do not unplug the bbU or green data cable, as this can
permanently damage the gateway and significantly delay your Service Activation.
If the Broadband and Service lights do not turn solid green or continue to
blink after 15 minutes, see the "Having Trouble?" section on the back of this
guide.
Note: The BBU must be charged for approximately 18 hours before it is fully
operational; however installation of your service may continue while the BBU
is charging. The BBU may emit a beeping sound while charging.
Important: You will have a dial tone after completing step 2, but will only be able
to make emergency and toll-free calls until you activate your service in step 3.
