Quick Start Guide.

Pocket WiFiTM 2

Set-up your

Pocket WiFiTM 2.

Your Pocket WiFiTM 2 Router sends out a WiFi signal

so that you can connect to the Internet without the

need for wires. Your Pocket WiFiTM 2 links multiple

WiFi enabled devices at any one time, for example

your laptop, Apple®iPod touch, Apple®iPad or

Nintendo DSi.

In this Quick Start Guide we’ll tell you how to set

up your Pocket WiFiTM 2 and get it working.

First of all, you’ll need to ensure you have a data plan, then insert the SIM and

battery into your Pocket WiFiTM 2.

Getting started.

Whenever you take the

SIM or battery out of your

Pocket WiFiTM 2, make sure

you turn it off first and

unplug the charger.

Now connect your Pocket WiFiTM 2to the

charger and plug it into the mains or

the USB port on your PC. The first time

you do this it’ll take around 8 hours

to fully charge the battery. You’ll see

this icon when the battery is fully

charged and the Pocket WiFiTM 2 is on.

When the Pocket WiFiTM 2 is off, and fully

charged, this icon will appear. To get

an idea of how long the battery can last

when fully charged, go to ‘Frequently

asked questions’ at the back of this

guide. The battery will gradually lose

power, even when it’s not being used,

so if you haven’t used it for a while,

you’ll probably need to recharge it.

Press and hold down the Power on/off

key for 2 seconds. The Pocket WiFiTM 2

will switch on, automatically connect to

the network and turn on the WiFi signal.

Once connected, the digital display will

show the icons explained on the next

page (typically this takes 60-90 seconds).

You’re now ready to connect your

laptop or other WiFi enabled device to

your Pocket WiFiTM 2

WiFi Security.

Your Pocket WiFiTM 2 is password

protected with unique security codes

so that no-one else can use your

WiFi connection. The unique security

codes are called the SSID (Service Set

Identifier) the name of the Pocket WiFiTM

2 and the WiFi Key (unique password).

You’ll find them on a sticker on the

inside back cover of your Pocket

WiFiTM 2.

You can change either the SSID

or the WiFi Key (unique password)

via ‘Change your settings’ on the

online dashboard. If you do change

them, you must make a note of the

new details as the old ones won’t

work anymore unless you reset the

Pocket WiFiTM 2 (see page 11).
