Vodafone Mobile Broadband Hotspot
Vodafone MiFi 2352 October 2009
Version 1.3
13
The Vodafone Mobile Broadband Hotspot comes pre-configured with the information
required to connect to the Vodafone mobile network. It will not normally require any
additional configuration to the basic settings unless you are using the device behind a
corporate firewall, and this may require the appropriate proxy server settings to be
modified (see following sections for how to do this).
WARNING ! It is highly recommended that you set up security for your Vodafone Mobile
Broadband Hotspot at this time. The device has WEP security enabled, but you may want to
change the WEP network key and your device logon password with personalised settings.
Note: if you are connected to the device over WLAN and find the hotspot redirects to the WEB UI
(i.e. configuration page) instead of the page you expected when using browser, this will be due to
the fact that the device cannot connect the user to a mobile broadband network.
If you have trouble connecting to the device ensure your WEP security key has been entered
correctly. Note: The WEP key is case sensitive - please ensure you input it with the correct upper
and lower case characters. An additional common cause of PC connection problems could be that
your computers WLAN adapter has become confused by working with multiple WLAN devices. The
normal way to fix this on a PC is to right click on the Wireless Network Connection icon in the
Windows toolbar, then select on
Repair.
Please check the LED state and also the connected state in the web UI to confirm the device is
showing “Connected”, and if not refer to the Troubleshooting section later in this guide.
