Inseego X700 Mesh

Connecting the X700 Mesh Wi-Fi to your existing FX4100 Wi-Fi network expands Wi-Fi coverage by removing dead spots and areas with weak signal. The X700 Mesh Wi-Fi is only compatible with the FX4100. You can add up to three X700 Mesh Wi-Fi’s to each FX4100 to expand your Wi-Fi footprint to ~5000 sq. ft.

Set up

Before Starting Set Up

Both the router and mesh node must be powered on and ready to pair.
The router and mesh node should be close together to pair.
You must pair the router and mesh node within 30 seconds of one another when pairing via Wi-Fi.
The multicolor LED on the X700, and the device display and Wi-Fi status LED on the FX4100 help guide the pairing process.

Set up steps

Power on the FX4100.
- You can connect up to three mesh nodes to one FX4100, pairing one at a time.
- When the FX4100 Wi-Fi status LED is solid green, it is ready to pair.
Power on the X700. Plug it in using the provided AC adapter, a USB powered hub, or a USB-powered delivery device. When the Mesh LED is blinking green, it is ready to pair.
Pair the X700 with an FX4100 using Wi-Fi or Ethernet.

Find a location for the X700
- Adjust the location of the X700 using the LED color as a guide. Solid blue indicates a great signal. Solid green indicates a good signal.
- Location suggestions:
  - Use the FX4100 Admin web UI, navigate to the Wi-Fi Mesh tab to ensure X700 nodes are using 5GHz as the Connection Type.
  - With 5GHz coverage, mesh range is up to 50 feet.
  - Walls, floors, appliances, furniture, pets, and people between the X700 and FX4100 reduce range.
  - 1 wall = approximately 10 feet reduction in range.
