- The number of bars shown represents the strength of the gateway's current connection to the cellular network.
- An 'X' indicates the gateway is not connected to the cellular network.
- ### Devices
- The number displayed indicates the number of devices currently connected to the gateway (including wireless and wired devices).
- Use the [T-Life app](https://www.t-mobile.com/support/home-internet/app "Learn more about the T-Mobile Internet app") to see and manage each connected device.
- ### Language Settings
The gateway supports both English and Spanish on the LCD screen. To adjust this setting:
1. From the __Languages__ screen, select __Change__.
2. Select __English__ or __Espanol__.
3. Press __O__ (OK) button to set the language.
- ### Messages
The Messages screen allows you to view the message contents by pressing < and > to scroll between messages.
To delete a message:

## Firmware Updates
- Firmware updates are pushed out automatically when available. They can't be manually requested.
- They're sent out in phases over a few weeks, so not all users get the update at the same time.

- Do not restart the gateway when it’s updating. The gateway will automatically restart once the update is complete.
