How to check your 4G signal
Signal strength is really important to 4G Assure. You’ll need a good 4G signal to stay connected if broadband isn’t working.
It’s quick and easy to check your 4G signal in your Hub Manager:
- Open a web browser and type http://btbusinesshub.home/resilience into the search bar.
- If prompted, enter your admin password (it’s on the back of your hub).
- You’ll instantly see a screen showing your 4G signal strength. We’ve given you an example of the BT Business Hub 5 screen below.
- Check the mobile signal level. If it’s weak (one bar or below), try moving the dongle and docking station to a new position to improve the signal strength. It’s best near a window. Your signal will automatically update on the Hub Manager.
Your mobile signal will be shown in bars. One bar is the weakest and five bars is the strongest. 4G Assure needs at least two bars to get the best experience.
