5. Scroll down to Current Signal.
The Signal Strength should be between -30 and -90 dBm.
If the Signal Strength is 0, check that the 4G LTE antenna is plugged in correctly on the control box (see pictures above).
If the Signal Strength is between -91 and -100 dBm, reposition the 4G LTE antenna. If this doesn't work, try a third-party antenna with a longer cable and/or a different location (e.g high on a pole).
