How do I connect a device to my 5G Home MINTernet gateway?

So you’ve set up your 5G Home MINTernet gateway and now you want to connect your wireless devices to the Wi-Fi. These steps should walk you through connecting any Wi-Fi device, like your phone, laptop, or smart TV, to your new Home MINTernet network: 

  1. Note your Wi-Fi network name and password
    • You can find your default Wi-Fi name (SSID) and password printed on a sticker on your Home MINTernet gateway. If you changed your network name or password, you’ll use the new ones you created instead
  2. Open Wi-Fi settings on your device
    • Your phone, laptop, TV, etc should have something labeled “Wi-Fi” or “Network” in its settings
  3. Find and select your network
    • Your device should scan for available networks automatically (or you may have to select Scan). When you see your Wi-Fi network name pop up, tap on it to connect
  4. Enter your Wi-Fi password
    • When your device asks for your password, type it in exactly as it’s printed on the gateway’s sticker—or exactly how you created it, if it’s been changed—because it is case sensitive
  5. Connect and enjoy
    • Once you’ve entered your Wi-Fi password, your device should give you confirmation that it is connected. Time to enjoy that 5G Home MINTernet
