Note:   
 The microSD card is an optional accessory. If it is not provided in the package, you can 
buy one yourself. 
 Ensure that the beveled edge of the SIM card is properly aligned with that of the SIM 
card slot and the microSD card is inserted according to the direction as labeled on the 
microSD card slot. 
 Do not remove the microSD or SIM card when the card is in use. Otherwise, the card as 
well as your LTE Wingle may get damaged and the data stored on the card may be 
corrupted. 
 Do not use any SIM card that is not standard or is incompatible with the LTE Wingle. 
Otherwise, the card as well as your LTE Wingle may get damaged and the data stored 
on the card may be corrupted. 
Using the Power Adapter 
Connect the LTE Wingle to the power adapter's USB port, and connect the power adapter 
to a power outlet. 
Note:   
 Only use power adapters compatible with the LTE Wingle and provided by a designated 
manufacturer (HW-050100xxW: The first x represents U, E, B, A, or J, depending on 
your region. The second x represents generation number.). For details about the specific 
adapter model, contact an authorized dealer. Use of an incompatible power adapter or 
one from an unknown manufacturer may cause the LTE Wingle to malfunction, fail, or 
could even cause a fire. Such use voids all warranties, whether expressed or implied, on 
the product. 
 The power adapter is an optional accessory. If it is not included in the product package, 
purchase one separately.

Using Your LTE Wingle 
The procedure for installing the management program depends on your computer's 
operating system. The following sections are based on Windows 7. 
Connecting to a Network 
1.  Connect the LTE Wingle to one of your computer's USB ports.   
The installation wizard runs automatically.   
2.  When the installation is complete, the LTE Wingle's web management page is displayed 
and the LTE Wi ngl e connects to the network automatically.   
Note: 
 If the installation wizard does not run automatically, find the AutoRun.exe file in the 
driver path, and double-click the file to run it.   
 The default user name and password of the web management page are admin. 
 If your SIM card's personal identification number (PIN) verification function is enabled, 
log in to the web management page, and enter and save the PIN.   
 If you are not using the default access point name (APN), log in to the web 
management page, and configure and save the APN settings on the dial-up settings 
tab. 
 When using the LTE Wingle to access a network, do not use other devices to access the 
network, because doing so may cause conflicts. 
 If you are not connected to the network, access http://192.168.8.1 to check the device 
status. 
 If you cannot access http://192.168.8.1, disconnect other network connections, such 
as an Ethernet or Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) connection, remove and then insert the LTE 
Wingle, or restart the computer. 
Disconnecting from a Network 
Remove the LTE Wingle from your computer.   
Note: 
 By default, the LTE Wingle automatically disconnects from the network if no data is 
transferred within 10 minutes.   
 If you do not need to connect to the network, it is recommended that you remove the 
LTE Wi ngle from your computer to reduce data traffic.   
 Disconnect the LTE Wingle's data connection through its web management page or the 
Mobile Wi-Fi application. Before you remove the LTE Wingle, make sure that the data 
connection has been disconnected. 
Setting Up a Wi-Fi Connection 
1.  Ensure that the LTE Wingle's Wi-Fi function is on. 
2.  Select Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center > 
Connect to a network. 
Note: 
Before establishing a Wi-Fi connection, ensure that the computer is equipped with a 
wireless network adapter. If the computer indicates a wireless network connection, the 
wireless network adapter can be used. Otherwise, verify that your wireless network 
adapter is working properly. 
3.  Select the wireless network connection with the LTE Wingle's SSID and click Connect. 
Note: 
 If a security mechanism is enabled for the wireless network connection, enter the 
correct network key.   
 The SSID and the network key are printed on the LTE Wingle, as shown in the following 
figure.

the computer screen. A wireless network connection is set up.   
Accessing the Internet 
You can access the Internet after a connection between your LTE Wingle and Wi-Fi device 
is set up.   
Note:   
By default, the LTE Wingle automatically disconnects from the Internet when you are 
roaming. 
Example 1: Connecting to a Game Console (for example, PSP) 
through Wi-Fi 
1.  On the PSP, turn on the WLAN. 
2.  Choose Settings > Network Settings. 
3.  Select Infrastructure Mode. 
4.  Select New Connection, and enter the 
connection name. 
5.  Select Scan to search for wireless 
networks. A list of access points will be 
displayed on the screen. 
6.  Select the access point with the LTE  
Wingle's SSID, and press the ► button 
on the PSP. Confirm the SSID, and 
enter the correct wireless network 
encryption key. 
7.  Press the ► button to proceed to the 
next step, and then press the X button 
to save settings. 
8.  Select Test Connection to test whether 
the network connection is successful. 
9.  You can now open the browser and 
access the network. 
Example 2: Connecting to a Tablet Computer (for example, iPad) 
through Wi-Fi 
1.  Touch Settings > WLAN to turn on 
WLAN. 
2.  The tablet computer automatically 
searches for wireless connections and 
displays a list of access points. 
3.  Select the access point with the LTE  
Wingle's SSID. 
4.  If required, enter the correct wireless 
network encryption key, and tap Join. 
(The lock icon indicates that the 
encryption key is required to connect 
to this wireless network.) 
Note: 
Wi-Fi devices, such as an iPhone, iPod touch, PS3 and NDSi, can all access the Internet 
through the LTE Wingle. For specific operations, refer to the Wi-Fi device's user manual.
