Setting Up Your FG2000

Step One: Install the SIM Card and Batteries

• Remove the cover from the SIM slot on the right side of the device.

• Use the provided SIM tool to insert a Nano 4FF SIM card into the appropriate SIM slot and reattach the cover.
  NOTE: If necessary, remove the SIM from its protective sleeve, being careful not to touch the gold-colored contact points. Insert the SIM card notch first, with the contact points facing the back of the device.
  This device supports only Nano-SIM cards.

• On the bottom of the device, slide the battery cover to the left and insert a fingernail at the edge to lift it out of place.

• Insert three AA batteries and replace the cover.

• Press the Power button to turn the FG2000 on for the next step.

Step Two: Identify a Location for your FG2000

• Scan the QR code to download the Inseego Mobile App from AppStore or Google Play, or visit https://inseego.com/inseego-connect-get-app to download the App.

• Follow instructions within the Inseego Mobile App to connect to the FG2000 and perform a location survey to identify the ideal location for your FG2000.
  NOTE: Make sure to place your FG2000 on a sturdy surface.

Step Three: Power on the FG2000

• Attach the power cord to the charger (the power cord comes in two pieces).
• Plug the power cord into the router power port and plug the power adapter into an AC wall outlet.
• Press the Power button on the device to turn it on. The indicator LED turns on while the FG2000 powers on. Once the unit is fully on, the LED turns solid blue, indicating a strong 5G connection.
  WARNING: Be sure to use the power adapter that came with your device to avoid damage that may void the warranty.

Connecting to a Wireless Device

To wirelessly connect a Wi-Fi-capable device (such as a PC, laptop, tablet, or phone) to your 5G Indoor Router for the first time:

1. Make sure the 5G Indoor Router is powered on and the indicator LED is blue, green, or white.
2. On the device, you want to connect to the Internet, open the Wi-Fi settings or application and in the displayed list of available networks, find the Primary Wi-Fi network name printed on the bottom of your 5G Indoor Router.
3. Click Connect or otherwise select the network name.
4. When prompted, enter the Primary Wi-Fi password printed on the bottom of the FG2000. You can change the default name or password to something easier to remember (see “Monitoring and Managing Your 5G Indoor Router”).

Your Wi-Fi–capable device is now connected to the Internet.
