Power Line Adapters Power line adapters make it possible to set up your Portable Internet modem anywhere, wherever the wireless signal is strongest. Power line adapters use existing electrical wiring to connect the modem and your computer, so you don't have to run cables through your home or office. To get started, 2 power line adapters are required, one to connect the modem to the power line and the second to connect the computer to the power line. You can add as many computers to this type of network as you wish.

Wireless Routers The Portable Internet modem is compatible with standard wired and wireless routers, so you can easily share your Portable Internet connection across your own local network. For a wireless set up, simply connect the Portable Internet modem to the router. All computers with a wireless adapter will then be able to share the connection. For computers that do not have a built-in wireless adapter, simply install a wireless card (typically for laptops easily installs in a slot in the laptop) or a USB wireless adapter.

Wireless Adapters If the computer you wish to connect to a wireless network does not have built-in wireless capability, all you need is to purchase and install a wireless card or adapter. Simply choose a wireless card (typically for laptops) or a USB wireless adapter for a desktop computer.
