Router zte mf90: indicators and connectors
Due to its mobility, the router had to "sacrifice" the indicator part.
There are only three indicators on the front of the device:
- - "Battery charge". When the indicator is “on” or “blinking” in red, it is necessary to charge the battery. If the light "blinks" green - the battery is charging (the charge level is not lower than average or the battery is fully charged).
- - "Network signal strength". The indicator is constantly "on" red - there is no signal, or "USIM" is not installed. "On" green - registration in the 2G / 3G network, "blinking" green - the router is connected to the network and data transfer is in progress, if the indicator "is on" blue - this means that the device is connected to the 4G network.
- - « WiFi network". If the indicator "blinks" blue - the wireless network is enabled, if "is on" - then "WPS" is enabled.
Below the indicator panel there are “Power” and “WPS” buttons, which are also designed to enable or disable the wireless network (with a single press), but if you hold the button for 5 seconds, the “WPS” mode will be enabled.
On the side there are two connectors for connecting 2 additional antennas and a mini-USB connector for synchronizing with a computer or connecting a charger.
Inside the case under the battery there are two slots: one for "USIM", the second for "microSD". And on the opposite side of the router - relative to the side buttons - there is a recess with the "Reset" button (ie reset to factory settings).

Router. Its main task is to provide the user with the Internet on the road or in the absence of available connections. It is equipped with its own battery, which allows you to use the network for a long time without recharging. But about this and others technical characteristics devices just below.
Description
Capable of working in 4G networks. The Chinese company ZTE is engaged in its production. In Russia, this router is actively implemented by the Beeline company with locked firmware for use in their networks. The average cost of this device is within 3 thousand rubles in the offices or representative offices of the provider. The ZTE MF90 is equipped with a 2300mAh battery. This allows him to work away from power sources for 6-7 hours. In the ZTE MF90, you can install an additional microSD memory card with a capacity of up to 32 GB. To avoid interference at 2.4 GHz, the device is designed to operate in the 5 GHz band. Up to 10 different devices can be connected to the ZTE MF90 4G router at the same time.
Appearance
The size of the mobile router ZTE MF90 corresponds to its portability, it is slightly larger than an ordinary pack of cigarettes. It looks like a small white box, without any decorative or design delights. The body contains only the most necessary parts and elements. There is a small screen with indicators on the front panel. Below it there are two buttons - one of them is responsible for power supply, the other for connection using VPS technology.
On one of the sides of the device there are two antenna jacks protected by special plugs, as well as a microUSB connector for connecting to a computer.
What's inside?
The battery takes up most of the interior decoration of the device. Removing it reveals a regular-sized SIM card slot and a memory card slot.
By the way, to open the case of the device, you need to slightly move the lid a couple of millimeters. The pressed area prompts a small triangle located at the bottom.
Device management
Almost all settings are set via the web interface. However, some of them are shifted to the shoulders of external controls. In particular, in order to turn on the device, you need to hold down the power button for 5 seconds. A short press will wake up the router from sleep mode, which by default turns off after 10 minutes of inactivity.
The WPS button, in addition to creating a secure Wi-Fi connection, can function to disable the wireless network module.
Three indicators display the current state of the device. Each of them can identify different situations:
- The first indicator is the battery charge. If it does not light up at all, then the device is either turned off or in standby mode. A green signal will indicate that the battery is charged or has a charge volume slightly above average. If the green light starts flashing, then the battery is currently in charging mode. Accordingly, burning and flashing red indicate the need to connect to a charger.
- The next indicator is the signal strength of the network. It is indicated, as a rule, by several parallel lines, arranged in height. Blue is defined for 4G networks. Blinking means data transfer at the moment. The same works for 2G or 3G networks, only the color will be green. The red signal notifies about an error, no Network or an uninstalled SIM card.
- Well, the last of the indicators is Wi-Fi network... It has only 2 states. When blinking blue - Wi-Fi is on. When just lit - WPS mode is activated.
Actually, more advanced information can be obtained in the web interface. There you can also find out about the number of connected users, the frequencies used, the exact percentage of the battery charge, traffic volumes and other useful information.
Web interface

The title page displays many useful information... Here you can read the SMS messages received by the modem and determine the duration of the active session, including the number of received and sent bits. You can also go directly from here to Personal Area or check your balance. But in most cases, users are interested in the setup process, for this there is a separate menu item with the same name.
Typically, most routers have a connection already configured. That is, immediately after inserting the SIM card, the Internet will be available. Of greatest interest is Wi-Fi distribution... For this you need:
- After going to the settings, move to the Wi-Fi tab. Traditionally, there are several fields here that must be filled in. The very first is the name of the network. It will be displayed on other devices when the access point becomes active.
- Just below this field, you must remember to switch the switch to the "Enabled" mode.
- Next, you should specify the type of network encryption. Typically, you can leave WPA-PSK. Or set this mode if it is not specified by default.
- In the "Password" field, you need to select a brute-force phrase. It is she who will be used when connecting other devices to the router.
- Next, you can specify the number of maximum connections. If you intend to use the router at home, you can set the number to 10.
