The Inseego Mobile App provides a simple, intuitive interface for installing and managing one or more Inseego devices. Installation The Mobile App helps users to install their Inseego fixed wireless access (FWA) device in the optimal location to maximize broadband speed in their home, business or enterprise. Installation features are not available on Inseego mobile devices as by nature they can be moved around and don’t require installation in a fixed location. Simply scan the QR code on your device to pair with your phone and get started. After pairing your smart phone or tablet with your Inseego FWA device, the mobile app automatically collects signal strength data from the device’s cellular connection. As you move the device to different locations and adjust the angle or orientation, the app provides easy-to-understand performance ratings. The app has customized installation flows for end-consumers doing self-installation, or for professional installers.
