Radio Frequency Energy Your wireless router is a low‐power radio transmitter and receiver. When switched on it intermittently transmits radio frequency (RF) energy (radio waves). The transmit power level is optimized for best performance and automatically reduces when there is good quality reception. Maximum power is only used at the edge of network coverage so under most circumstances the power output is very low.

4 Troubleshooting Symptoms Possible Problems/ Solutions I cannot access the internet at all. Check the LCD display which shows the number of active connections. If this is 0 or x then Wi‐Fi is not connected. Verify your password is correct. Make sure your SIM card is inserted correctly. Check you have network coverage in your area. Check that your SIM card is active and enabled with data services. Please wait 1 ‐ 2 minutes for the router to initialize. The download or upload speeds are very slow.
