  2. Set the wireless network name (SSID) to the desired name for your new network.
  3. Set the wireless channel to Auto or a specific channel to minimize interference.
  4. Set the wireless encryption method to WPA2-PSK (AES) or WPA3-PSK (AES-256) for maximum security.
  5. Set the wireless password (WEP/WPA/WPA2/WPA3) to a strong and unique password.

Step 3: Configure the LAN Settings

  1. Click on the "LAN" or "Local Network" tab in the mobile router's web interface.

Step 4: Configure the Internet Connection

  1. Click on the "Internet" or "WAN" tab in the mobile router's web interface.
  2. Select the internet connection type (e.g., 3G, 4G, LTE, or Wi-Fi).
  3. Enter the APN (Access Point Name) and login credentials provided by your mobile carrier.
  4. Set the internet connection speed and quality settings as desired.

Step 5: Save and Apply the Changes

  1. Click on the "Save" or "Apply" button to save the changes you've made to the mobile router's settings.
  2. Wait for the mobile router to restart and apply the new settings.

Step 6: Test the New Network

  1. Connect to the new network using a device (computer, mobile phone, etc.).
  2. Verify that you can access the internet and other network resources.
