How to set up Wireless Router mode and 3G/4G Backup on MERCUSYS Wireless 4G LTE Router

This Article Applies to:

The router supports two operation modes: 3G/4G Router Mode and Wireless Router mode. If you already have a modem or your internet comes via an Ethernet outlet, you can set up the router as a regular wireless router to share the internet.

In Wireless Router mode, you can use a 3G/4G network as a backup solution for internet access. When 3G/4G Backup is enabled, your router will connect to the 3G/4G network when the original network service is not available.
