Checking 4G Signal Strength

Checking 4G Signal Strength

From the unit's control panel page, you will see a box for the signal strength of your 4g card. the response can be slow as the box will run a strength test then upload it, allow 3-5 minutes for a response. This can be seen in the Site Overview page once a 4G Connection has been chosen.

​
Note: If there is no Signal, the SimpleWAN unit may not be seeing the 4G Device as Active or connected. Another way to know if the SimpleWAN unit sees it as Active/Connected is by checking the Speed Test.
