ventilated space to allow the heat to dissipate, then turn it on and continue to use it as normal.
If you are unable to use the Mobile WiFi as normal, try the following:
Consult the online help on the web management page.
Restart the Mobile WiFi.
Restore the Mobile WiFi to the factory settings.
Consult your operator.
