V) Common Issues

I can’t connect to the Internet.

Are there three blue LEDs lit on the R565? If not:

Re-set the device 

Power down the device by sliding the power switch located on the 
side of the device to the “OFF” position. Wait 10 seconds. Then, slide 
the power switch back to the “ON” position, and wait for the device to 

reboot.

Confirm the SIM card is inserted properly

 

Did you remember to insert the SIM card? Is it inserted properly? 
Power down the device, take the SIM card out, align the corner notch 
at the bottom as shown in the previous illustration, and insert the 
SIM. It should click in securely and not move if inserted properly.

If following the above steps does not resolve your connectivity 
issue, 

login to the R565 router as described on page 7. Look at the 

upper right hand corner of the settings page. If you see the words 

“LTE Signal” and an icon with at least one blue bar present, you are 
connected to the VTel Wireless network. Any connectivity issues are 
likely related to the device you’re attempting to use to access the In

-

ternet, or to the status of your account. If your bill is past due or you 

have used all your data, you will be unable to access the Internet, so 
please call Customer Service for assistance. If your account is current 
and your router shows an LTE signal is present, try connecting to 
the Internet using a different peripheral (a computer, a tablet, or a 
smartphone).
