Step 4: Power on

  • Plug in your Nokia FastMile 5G Gateway and push the ON/OFF button
  • LED lights will appear on top of your device once it's powered on. 
  • Wait 30–60 seconds so the Gateway can search for a 5G signal.

Step 5: Check light status for connectivity

Use the Nokia WiFi App to check signal strength. You can also check signal strength by viewing the LED lights on top of your device. 

  • All three (3) LED lights means there's a very good signal strength.
  • Two (2) LEDs means good signal strength. 
  • One (1) LED means weak signal strength. 

To improve your signal strength, you can do the following: 

  • Move the location of your device (higher is always recommended). 
  • Move your device close to a window or outer wall with few obstructions. 

Press the TEST button on the side of your Gateway to check the signal strength at any time.
