AC1900 LTE Router Quick Start Model ML2410
Let’s get started If you want to provide cellular backup to your existing Internet connection we recommend setting up and testing the cellular connection as described below than changing the configuration to enable cellular backup. To use your ML2410 modem you need an activated micro SIM (3FF format), which you normally get from your mobile broadband service provider. If instead you use a nano SIM card (used by most phones today), you must use a SIM Card Adapter.
Using the ML2410 for Cellular Backup Connect the ML2410’s yellow Ethernet cable between the ML2410’s WAN port and the Ethernet port of a cable modem, DSL modem, or fiber optic modem used for Internet access. Switch the power of the modem off now. (For some modem/routers, this requires you to remove a power backup battery.) After the modem is off for at least 10 seconds, switch it back on. (If you removed a backup battery, plug the battery back in first.
Next check the box next to Enable Cellular Backup. This will turn on cellular backup in case your Internet connections goes down. The ML2410 should automatically detect your SIM card and should be configured correctly.
Connect Your Devices The ML2410 lets many devices share your Internet connection. Devices can connect by using WiFi or by plugging into one of the ML2410 Ethernet ports. WiFi Wireless You can connect any of your WiFi devices by first going into the WiFi setup section for the device (not the router). Then use the ML2410 router’s WiFi Network Name (SSID) and WiFi Password/Key. The unique factory-set default settings are printed on a label on the bottom of the ML2410.
MotoManage™ We strongly suggest that you download the MotoManage™ App from the Apple App Store or from Google Play to access basic and advanced network control features. The app lets you manage your network quickly and easily, and it makes it easy to keep your network’s original wireless settings The app includes basic and advanced features, which are all available free of charge for the first month.
Improving WiFi Performance As noted before, the ML2410 has a unique WiFi SSID/Network Name and WiFi Password/Security Key printed on the ML2410’s bottom label. Use these unless you want to change them for some reason. If you do change them, we suggest that you tape a label with the new SSID and Password onto the ML2410. (Changing them will not affect WiFi quality.) Note that WiFi performance depends on a number of factors.

Battery Purchase and Replacement The ML2410 has battery back-up circuitry which will power the ML2410 in the event of a power failure. The ML2410 typically does not ship with a battery included. A battery is not required for normal operation with AC power. If you want a back-up battery, you can purchase one online. The type of back-up battery that must be used with this product is Model 98250 from MTRLC LLC, and is labeled BP-15033-22/2150 S.
