Peplink MAX BR1 Mini annotated features

SIM card required (important—please read)

To use the Peplink MAX BR1 Mini as a cellular–WiFi router, you must have an activated nano-SIM card with a data plan. You can obtain a SIM card from your cellular carrier (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.) and add it as an additional line on your existing plan. You can also purchase SIM cards from many retailers, including Amazon, Walmart, Target, and Best Buy; the data plan will either have a recurring monthly payment or will be a prepaid “pay-as-you-go” plan.

Nano-SIM card with dimensions A nano-SIM cardexternal link icon is about the size of a fingernail.

Who is the Peplink MAX BR1 Mini with Poynting 2×2 MIMO panel antenna for?

  • Homes and small offices in remote locations where cellular signal is the only available high-speed internet service.
  • Improvised WiFi networks at events with up to 60 users (school, community, church, etc.)
  • Wired offices and data centers that use WiFi as a backup or failover option.
  • Users of T-Mobile band 71 for their internet service.

  • InControl²external link icon cloud-based management system lets you see your router’s performance and manage it from anywhere via a web browser (watchexternal link icon).
  • WiFi WAN allows the router to connect to another WiFi network—like one in an office or RV park—and use its internet data instead of your cellular data plan.*
  • Ethernet WAN allows the router to connect via an Ethernet cable to a wired network—like cable, DSL, fiber, or satellite internet—and use its internet data instead of your cellular data plan.*
  • 24/7 email support from the manufacturer (in addition to lifetime phone support from Powerful Signal during business hours).

Administer your router with the SpeedFusion Connect app

The Peplink SpeedFusion Connect app for smartphones lets you monitor and configure your router, switch between WANs, prioritize traffic by application, activate features like SpeedFusion Connect and hot failover, view reports, and share access with others to manage your router.

Using the SpeedFusion Connect app to check your router’s states and make changes is often faster and easier than logging into the router’s web-based dashboard or using InControl².
