If the USB socket delivers too little power, the router may charge slowly or run unstably.<\/p>\n<p>The Hybrid Traveller also has a built-in battery, so it keeps working for a while when it is not connected to power.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wifi-faq-v4\" data-v4-expanded=\"1\">\n<h3>For the best battery life<\/h3>\n<p>Battery life depends on the signal strength, the number of connected devices and data usage. With a weak mobile signal the router often has to work harder, which can increase power consumption. For longer stationary use it therefore makes sense to connect the router to power.<\/p>\n<h3>Good to know about the Hybrid Traveller<\/h3>\n<p>The Hybrid Traveller receives the internet over 4G\/5G and then shares the connection as its own Wi-Fi network. So two different things can affect the result: the mobile reception at the router and the Wi-Fi signal between the router and your devices. When you have problems, it is worth checking both separately.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Useful links<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wifi.se\/en\/product\/hybrid-traveller-portable-5g-router\/\"><strong>\u2192 See the Hybrid Traveller 5G<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wifi-faq-related\"><strong>Read more:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/wifi.se\/en\/faq-5g-router-hybrid-traveller\/\">FAQ: Hybrid Traveller 5G<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"faq_category":[506],"class_list":["post-32979","faq","type-faq","status-publish","hentry","faq_category-hybrid-traveller-5g"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Can it be charged via USB? | Wifi.se<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Yes.
