Introduction
The PTE2700 JVA Wi-Fi Anywhere (WA20) provides an integrated Wireless Cellular
USB Dongle (Wingle) power supply with a solar battery charger and management
system.
This product provides a Wi-Fi network wherever a 3G/4G signal is available*.
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 paired with the Wingle 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 connect your WA20 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 [email protected]

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.
Mounting WA20
The WA20 includes a built-in star picket mount, utilise this to keep the solar
panel facing north to get full sun from morning to evening.
