  • Q. What is the MAX Adapter and how do I use it?

     

    The MAX Adapter is a state-of-the-art cellular modem by Peplink, it is not a standalone router. It can be used in two ways to:

    • Add an additional cellular WAN to your existing Peplink device which has a USB WAN port. Check here to see how it works.
    • Provide 5G or LTE connectivity to your Windows or Linux devices on-the-go, acting as a cellular modem.

     

    Q. Is the MAX Adapter right for me?

     

    Are you in need of a solution that can add an additional 5G/LTE WAN to existing Peplink products via a USB WAN port, supports SpeedFusion VPN, offers external antenna support, has dual SIM slots, and is something small but not a full router? Then the MAX Adapter is for you!

     

    Q. Do antennas come included?

     

    Four LTE antennas are included but the GPS antenna must be purchased separately.

     

    Q. Can I pair my MAX Adapter with my Mac?

     

    Currently, our MAX Adapter is only compatible with Windows & Linux devices.

     

    Q. Does the MAX Adapter have a built-in battery?

     

    No, the MAX Adapter is powered via USB-C.

     

    Q. My MAX Transit has a USB port but it’s not compatible with the MAX Adapter. Why?  

     

    The MAX Transit’s USB port only provides power input, not data. For compatibility, the device must contain a USB WAN port.
