Step 1. Insert SIM Card and Power on the Camera

1. Choose and insert the SIM Card

If you don't use the Reolink SIM card, refer to this link to choose a compatible SIM card: How to Choose SIM Card for Reolink 4G Cameras. (Skip this step if you are using the Reolink SIM card.)

After choosing the compatible SIM card, find the SIM slot on the camera and insert the SIM card correctly.

For model-specific instructions, refer to How to Install the SIM Card for Reolink 4G Cameras
TrackMix Wired LTE: Alternately, it can connect directly to router as a wired camera.

2. Power On the Camera

Go, Go Plus, Go Ultra, Go Series G330/G340: Install the battery.
Other 4G cameras: Switch on the camera using the power button.

Wait for the LED: red → blue. When you hear “Network connection succeeded,” the camera is online.
If not, see Introduction to the Voice Prompt of Reolink 4G Cameras.

3. For customers using a Reolink SIM card only
Note: If you are using a non-Reolink SIM card, you may skip the activation procedure. However, please ensure that the SIM card is activated with available data.

Some Reolink 4G cameras come with a Reolink SIM card, which needs to be activated before use. The App can detect via the camera’s UID whether a SIM card is included. If a Reolink SIM card is detected, scanning the UID will first prompt you to activate the SIM card before continuing with the setup.
