Recharge The Battery From A Computer Usb Port; Use The Usb Type-C Cable To Charge Only - NETGEAR Nighthawk MR5100C User Manual

Recharge the Battery From a Computer USB Port

To recharge the battery from the USB port on your computer:
Attach one end of the micro USB cable to the mobile router and plug the other end
into the USB port on your computer.
The Battery icon on the LCD indicates that the battery is charging.
Note: The LCD goes into sleep mode after a set time to extend battery life. To wake
up the LCD, tap the Power button.

Use the USB Type-C Cable to Charge Only

You can log in to the mobile router and specify a setting so that the USB Type-C cable
is used only for charging and not to access the mobile router using a web browser. You
might want to do this if you are using the Ethernet port and a wall socket is not available
to charge the mobile router.
To specify a USB Type-C cable charge-only setting:
1. From a computer that is connected to your network, launch a web browser.
2. Enter http://mywebui.net or http://192.168.1.1.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the administrator login password.
Note: The default admin password is unique to your device and is printed on the
product label located in the battery compartment During initial device setup, you
are asked to change the admin password. If you change the admin password during
initial device setup, you must use that password to log in. If you forget your new
password, you need to reset your router to restore the default admin password.
4. Select Setup > Mobile Router Setup.
The Router Setup page displays.
