Yes, you may share your WiMAX 4G connection with other PCs and devices in your home but depending on the model of your WiMAX 4G CPE (modem) and your specific needs, you may have to add either a network switch or a wireless Access Point (AP) to the Ethernet port at the rear of your WiMAX 4G CPE.
Both models of our indoor-based, WiMAX 4G CPEs have a single Ethernet port at the rear but one model has a built-in WIFI router while the other does not.

- The standard WiMAX 4G CPE can only share the WiMAX 4G connection to other PCs and devices if a network switch or Access Point (AP) is connected to the device via an Ethernet cable.
- The advanced WiMAX 4G CPE has a built-in WIFI router that can share the WiMAX 4G connection to other PCs and devices wirelessly via WIFI. A network switch is a device with multiple Ethernet ports that allows you to connect multiple PCs or other devices together, via Ethernet cables, to form a Local Area Network (LAN). One of the ports on a network switch can be connected to the WiMAX 4G CPE to allow all devices on the LAN to share the WiMAX 4G connection to the Internet.
An Access Point (AP) offers the same basic functionality as switch, but in this case there is an Ethernet cable going from the AP to the WiMAX 4G CPE and the remaining connections between the AP and the devices are established via WIFI.
