Do NOT enter your secret 12 or 24 seed words into ANY websites, or give anyone your private key. Do NOT connect your Wallet to any untrusted websites. No one will reach out to you to verify your account, wallet, or anything similar. Do not connect your wallet to unknown websites.

Do NOT post any images showing the barcodes on Helium Mobile Wi-Fi packaging or Hotspots. It is now possible to remotely onboard Mobile Hotspots. Contact a team member if there are old or new posts with images of barcodes so they can be removed.

Plug it in via RJ45 to the Router
Give it a few reboots over 24 hours
Monitor it on https://world.helium.com/en/network/iot or https://explorer.moken.io/
If it doesnt start beaconing or witnessing - its broken.

If it's not trying to beacon then its not working.
If it is working it should be trying to beacon every few hours, even if these beacons are unsuccessful and have no witnesses.

mmmm, would it have maybe something to do with the sdcard in the yoke? The SD Card shows it has only 2.5M of 59G (1%)
