Help After Activating Your 3G MicroCell
My range of coverage on the MicroCell is limited
or
I experience dropped calls on the MicroCell
• If your MicroCell is located next to or in close proximity
to another wireless broadcasting device, move the
MicroCell at least one foot away from that device.
• If your MicroCell is located:
> On the floor, then move it off the floor and onto a desk
or table;
> In a cabinet or closet, then move it out of the cabinet
or closet;
> Behind or next to any furniture or other insulated or
radiating devices (such as a couch, microwave, flat
panel TV, etc.) that may interfere with the MicroCell’s
broadcasting signal, then move it to a new location
where there is nothing blocking the MicroCell.
• If re-locating your MicroCell does not resolve the issue or
does not apply to you, then run a speed test at
att.com/speedtest to ensure your broadband
connection meets minimum requirements of 1.5 Mbps
download and 256 Kbps upload speeds. If necessary,
upgrade to a higher broadband speed.
• If your broadband meets minimum requirements, then
place your MicroCell in a central location of your
residence or in a location where your MicroCell is used
most frequently. If necessary, use a longer Ethernet
cable or a Powerline Ethernet adapter (as described on
page 14 “My Internet equipment isn’t near a window and
I am unable to get a GPS lock” in the second bullet).
