JVA WA100 100W Solar Panel WiFi Anywhere
Introduction
The PTE2703 JVA Wi-Fi Anywhere (WA100) provides an integrated Wire-less
Cellular USB Dongle (Wingle) power supply with a solar battery char-ger and
management system.
This product provides a Wi-Fi network wherever a 3G/4G signal is avail-able*.
The Wi-Fi can then be used to connect an IP device or Internet of Things (IoT)
device to the Cloud (Internet).
The JVA Solar Wi-Fi Anywhere is installed with an ALDI SIM card at the
factory, all you need to do is:
- Register the SIM card
- Connect any Wi-Fi-enabled device to the network provided
This quick-start guide explains how to deploy your WA100 and connect a battery
ready for Wi-Fi connections.
An external cellular antenna (included) may be connected to increase
reception. An upgraded YAGI style antenna is available from sales@jva-

Before you start
Activate the SIM card
Activate your SIM card and test it in a mobile phone. The Wi-Fi network allows
a data-only connection, the number of devices connected to the module will
determine how much data will be used.
As a guide, a single IP Energiser or IP Monitor will use less than 1MB per
day, so for connecting a single IP Energiser, an upper limit of 500MB per year
is an option with a lot of headroom.
