The SIM card should be inserted – notch-end first with the gold contacts down – into the SIM slot of the LTE modem (it will click into place). Will the device work even if Sprint doesn’t have LTE in the customer’s area yet? Yes. So long as there is Sprint 3G service available. It is recommended you set the modem to connect to 3G service only so it doesn’t spend time looking for LTE service. If you do this, make sure the customer understands they need to set the router back to LTE when Sprint LTE service is turned on in his/her area. Does the device fail back to 3G? Yes, if the device doesn’t see an LTE signal it will automatically fail back to 3G EVDO (eHRPD), even during an active session. When the session becomes idle (no data passing for roughly 10 seconds), the modem will transition back to LTE.
