Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Axesstel MU430(3.75G Gateway). This user manual
will help you setup, configure and outline best practices for maximizing your
wireless home network performance with the Modem. Please be sure to read
through this User Manual completely, and pay special attention to the section
entitled “Placement of your Modem for Optimal Performance” on page 2.
Placement of your Modem for Optimal Performance
Your wireless connection will be stronger the closer your computer is to your
Modem. Typical indoor operating range for Wi-Fi wireless devices is between 100
and 200 feet. For HSUPA operation, a line-of-sight with the radio base station is
preferred and yields the strongest signal strength.
In the same way, your wireless connection and performance will degrade
somewhat as the distance between your Modem and connected devices
increases, as well as between the Modem and the radio base station. This may or
may not be noticeable to you. As you move farther from your Modem, connection
speed may decrease. Factors that can weaken signals simply by getting in the
way of your network’s radio waves are metal appliances or obstructions, and walls.
Note: While some of the items listed below can affect network performance, they
will not prohibit your wireless network from functioning; if you are concerned that
your network is not operating at its maximum effectiveness, this checklist may
help.
1. Modem Placement
Place your Modem, the central connection point of your network, as close as
possible to windows or in rooms at the outer side of your house. If you also use
the Wi-Fi feature of the Modem, it should be placed near the center of your
wireless network devices.
To achieve the best wireless network coverage:
• Ensure that your Modem’s networking antennas are parallel to each other,
and are positioned vertically (toward the ceiling). If your Modem itself is
positioned vertically, point the antennas as much as possible in an
upward direction.
5
• In multistory homes, place the Modem on an upper floor.
• Try not to place the Modem near a cordless phone (MU430 only).
2. Avoid Obstacles and Interference
Avoid placing your Modem near devices that may emit radio “noise,” such as
microwave ovens. Dense objects that can inhibit wireless communication include:
• Refrigerators
• Washers and/or dryers
• Metal cabinets
• Large aquariums
• Metallic-based, UV-tinted windows
If your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, try to move the Modem to
another location while observing the signal strength indicator. Since you may not
know the location of an WCDMA radio base station serving your Modem, try to
call your service provider and ask for the nearest base station of your home. Try
placing the Modem closest and unobstructed to that base station.

Product Overview
In minutes you will be able to connect your computers to the Internet, share your
Internet connection and network your computers. The following is a list of features
that make your new Axesstel HSUPA Modem an ideal solution for your home or
small office network. Implementation of these features depends on the particular
service provider and account features you have chosen.
Some features described in this manual may not be supported by your service
provider or may not be available with your network account. For details of the
services and accounts available, contact your service provider.
WCDMA 3G services
The Modem operates over the WCDMA 3G technology that provides a variety of
connectivity features, depending on your service provider and account:
¾ HSDPA Supports Internet connections with data rates up to 7.2 Mbps
(downlink from the network) and 384Kbps (Uplink to the network). Actual
speed depends on the network conditions.
¾ HSUPA Provides up-link performance of up to 5.76Mbit/s. Actual speed
depends on the network conditions.
Once the connection is established, you can open your browser and connect to
any web site that is accessible through the Internet, or access other Internet
services (such as email).
The connection is “active” when data transmission is occurring. If data
transmission stops for a period of time (determined by the network), the
connection becomes “dormant”; see page 26.
Plug-and-Play
Each Modem has been provisioned at the factory for use with a particular service
provider. This sets the Modem to use particular radio channels and enables
services specific for that provider. Although the Modem comes with drivers and
enabling software, you don’t have to install and use them if you simply want to
connect to the Internet, assuming that your Modem has been activated with the
network (The process of setting up your account is called activation. Activation
involves action by the service provider and configuration of the Modem.)
7
Once the Modem has been activated, simply connect your computer with the
Modem using the provided Ethernet (RJ-45) cable and you are ready to use the
Internet. If you choose to install the driver and its enabling software (the
AxessManager), you will have more controls of the Modem performances and
settings.
Works with Both PCs and Mac® Computers
The Modem supports a variety of networking environments including Mac OS®
9.x, X v10.x, AppleTalk®, Linux®, Windows® 98, Me, NT®, 2000, and XP, and
others. All that is needed is an Internet browser and a network adapter that
supports TCP/IP (the standard language of the Internet).
Top-View LED Display
Lighted LEDs on the top of the Modem indicate which functions are in operation.
You’ll know at-a-glance whether your Modem is in HSUPA or HSDPA mode,
connected to the Internet, and in Wi-Fi or Ethernet operation. This feature
eliminates the need for advanced software and status-monitoring procedures.
Web-Based Advanced User Interface
You can set up the Modem’s advanced functions easily through you’re
AxessManager web browser, without having to install additional software onto the
computer. There are no disks to install or keep track of and, best of all, you can
make changes and perform setup functions from any computer on the network
quickly and easily.
NAT IP Address Sharing
Your Modem employs Network Address Translation (NAT) to share the single IP
address assigned to you by your Internet Service Provider while saving the cost of
adding IP addresses to your Internet service account.
Integrated 10/100 4-Port Switch
The Modem has a built-in, 4-port network switch to allow your wired computers to
share printers, data and MP3 files, digital photos, and much more. The switch
features automatic detection so it will adjust to the speed of connected devices.
The switch will transfer data between computers and the Internet simultaneously
without interrupting or consuming resources.
Support for VPN Pass-Through
If you connect to your office network from home using a VPN connection, your
Modem will allow your VPN-equipped computer to pass through the Modem and
8
to your office network.
Built-In Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
Built-In Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) on-board makes for the
easiest possible connection of a network. The DHCP server will assign IP
addresses to each computer automatically so there is no need for a complicated
networking setup.
Integrated 802.11g Wireless Access Point
802.11g is an exciting new wireless technology that achieves data rates up to
54Mbps, nearly five times faster than 802.11b.
MAC Address Filtering
For added security, you can set up a list of MAC addresses (unique client
identifiers) that are allowed access to your network. Every computer has its own
MAC address. Simply enter these MAC addresses into a list using the Web-Based
Advanced User Interface and you can control access to your network.

System components
Your Modem is just one part of a system designed to provide you with a wide
range of communication features. Every component of the system is needed to
enable these capabilities.
Your host computing device
Your notebook or PC hosts the Modem and runs the communication software:
your web browser or email application and Connection Manager—the Modem
enabling software.
You may also have other software on your computer that can be used wirelessly
with the Modem, such as: file transfer applications (FTP), chat or instant
messaging, a VPN (Virtual Private Network) client, client software for a corporate
server application.
The Modem
The Modem provides your computer with a connection to the
GSM/GPRS/EGDE/WCDMA
wireless network. Every
GSM/GPRS/EGDE/WCDMA
network operates on one of five radio
frequency bands
(850MHz, 900MHz, 1800MHz, 1900MHz and 2100MHz)
The Modem drivers and enabling software
Required to control, monitor, and manage your wireless connections, this includes
the AxessManager application and USB device driver.
The Modem comes with a CD containing this software:
¾ AxessManager application that you use to manage the Modem and
13
monitor your connections
¾ The USB device driver software that enables the Modem to work with
your computer’s operating system.
The USB driver and application software must be installed before you insert the
Modem for the first time if you choose to connect the Modem with your PC USB
port. AxessManager application is optional: you can install it at anytime or not
installing it altogether. Detailed instructions are provided in the following chapters.
A GSM/GPRS/EGDE/WCDMA service provider account
Companies that operate
GSM/GPRS/EGDE/WCDMA
networks and provide access to these
networks are called service providers. To use the Modem, you must have an
account with the service provider.
Each service provider has its own pricing options. There may be flat rate accounts,
which provide you a maximum number of minutes of network usage for a fixed
monthly fee. There may be accounts for which you are charged for network usage
by the minute or by the amount of data transmitted.
Your account may include a variety of other services such as SMS messaging.
Each Modem has been provisioned at the factory for use with a particular service
provider. This sets the Modem to use particular radio channels and enables
services specific for that provider.
The process of setting up your account is called activation. Activation involves
action by the service provider and configuration of the Modem.
The WCDMA wireless network
This is the worldwide infrastructure providing the radio coverage that allows you to
stay connected. Made up of radio towers and a variety of network switches,
routers, and servers, the network is an interconnection of many service providers.
Note: More information about WCDMA networks is available on the GSM core
development group web site, www.3gpp.org.
Note: Some service providers have coverage maps on their web sites.

AxessManager Operational Guide
AxessManager is a SW utility that allows the administration of your Modem. One
computer at a time can log into the Modem via AxessManager for the purposes of
making changes to the settings of the Modem. Once a user has logged in to make
changes, all other computers connected to the Modem inherit the same settings.
For example, if the Modem is set to use only WCDMA data, all connections to the
network through the Modem RJ-45 ports or Wi-Fi will be WCDMA.
IMPORTANT: You must use AxessManager to authenticate your PIN (Personal
Identification Number) before connecting to the Modem.
MU430 PIN authentication
When you use MU430 for the first time, you need to go through AxessManager to
authenticate your PIN. Once your PIN is authenticated, and as long as you don’t
turn off the device, you don’t need to re-authenticate your PIN even if you get off
AxessManager (e.g. to connect via Wi-Fi or Ethernet ports). Also, you have an
option to de-activate PIN authentication in subsequent connection by selecting the
Unlock option in RUIM tab of Menu Window.
MU430 Validation
If you enter an invalid PIN for three consecutive times, your SIM card (and your
device) will lock up. To unlock the SIM, contact your service provider to obtain a
PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) code. With this code, you can set a new PIN for
your device.

for your computer USB and COM connections with the Modem. If
selected, a drop down menu with a list of available COM ports will
appear and you will need to specify the port number from that list.
31
3. Status Tab
This tab shows you various performance statuses of your Modem. There are no
further actions needed in this tab.
4. USB Connection Profile Tab
This tab lets you define and manage the USB connection of your Modem. You
only have to specify items in this tab if you choose to connect and operate your
computer with the Modem via the USB port. Note that there is only one USB
port on the Modem hence there is only one single user who can use the Modem
in this mode. In normal operation, there are two USB connection profiles
predefined: one for WCDMA connection and one for GSM connections. These
two profiles are included in the Install CD and downloaded to your PC during
the installation process.
32
A. Profile List
This window contains all the USB connection profiles previously defined
in the computer currently in use to connect with the Modem and
indicates which profile is active. Note that this list is stored in the
computer and not in the Modem, hence any changes you make in the
profiles are only stored locally. If you have more than one PC and intent
to use the USB connection with the Modem (not simultaneously) you
will need to make the same changes in each PC.
B. Add/Delete/Edit Profile
These buttons allows you to manage all USB connection profiles
previously defined in the computer.
To add a new profile, simply click the "Add" button. A secondary pop up
window will appear and ask you to enter all parameters associated with
the new connection. These parameters are:
• Profile Name
• User Id
• Password
• Dialed Number
• APN
Since these parameters are sent over the air to the network serving
your Modem, we advise you to contact your Service Provider before
attempting this step.
To delete an existing profile, first highlight it by clicking the profile name
in the list then hit the "Delete" button.
To modify some settings of an existing profile, highlight it in the profile
list then click the "Edit" button. A secondary pop up window similar to
the "Add" pop up window will appear. This window is populated with
existing parameter values. You simply change the appropriate
parameter as needed. Again, we advise you to contact your Service
Provider before attempting this step.
5. SIM Tab
This tab lets you modify the setting of your Modem RUIM validation. You can
33
choose to permanently unlock your device so that future access will not require
PIN entering (hence no need to go through AxessManager). You may want to
do this if your device is shared with other users.
Also this tab allows you to modify your current PIN.
34
Web Manager User Interface
The Web Manager User Interface is a web-based tool that you can use to set up
the Modem if you don’t want to use the default setting of Install CD. You can also
use it to manage advanced functions of the Modem. From the User Interface, you
can perform the following tasks:
• View the Modem’s current settings and status
• Configure the Modem's router function to connect to your Service
Provider with the settings that they provided you
• Change the current network settings such as the Internal IP address, the
IP address pool, DHCP settings, and more
• Set the Modem’s firewall to work with specific applications (port
forwarding)
• Set up security features such as client restrictions, MAC address filtering,
WEP, and WPA
• Enable the DMZ feature for a single computer on your network
• Change the Modem’s internal password
• Reboot the Modem
• Back up your configuration settings
• Reset the Modem’s default settings
• Update the Modem’s firmware
Before you use the Advanced User Interface, you will need to have a User Name
and Password of the Modem. Please contact your Service Provider to obtain
them.
Step 1 │ Access Network Setup
1.1. Connect the PC to your Modem using the CAT-5 Ethernet cable. Use ANY
one of the Ethernet ports on your Modem.
1.2 If you have installed AxessManager, start AxessManager utility if it is not
already active. From Main window, select Menu button. Refer to
AxessManager Operational Guide for instructions if needed. If you have not
installed AxessManager, refer to section “Configuring Ethernet Access” to
35
advance to step 2. Skip the rest of step 1.
1.3 From Menu window, select "Network" tab. A secondary pop up window will
appear and ask you to enter User Name and Password.
1.4 Enter the User Name and Password then click "OK". The pop up window
will change to a web-based window
Step 2 │Navigate web-based UI
2.1 The Basic Setting page is the first page you will see when you access the
web based Advanced User Interface (UI). The basic setting page shows you
a quick view of the Modem’s login setting. All advanced setup pages can be
reached from this page.
36
1. Quick Navigation Links
You can go directly to any of the Modem’s UI pages by clicking directly
on these links. The links are divided into logical categories and grouped
by tabs to make finding a particular setting easier to find.
2. Page Name
The page you are on can be identified by this name. This User Manual
will sometimes refer to pages by name. For instance “Advanced > LAN
IP Setup” refers to the “LAN IP Setup” page.
Basic Settings
Clicking on the header of the “Basic Settings” tab will take you to the “Basic
Settings” header page. From this page, the Modem’s basic settings can be
modified. These settings include:
¾ WAN Connection. A drop down menu allows users to change the
providers. The default value is HSPA
¾ MAC Address
¾ PPP Login ID and password (if applicable)
¾ Authentication Method. A drop down menu allows users to change the
authentication method. The default value is PAP
¾ Dial No
37
Configuring the Wireless Network Settings
Clicking on the header of the “Wireless Settings” tab will take you to the
“Wireless Settings” header page. From this page, the Modem’s Wi-Fi router
wireless radio can be enabled or disabled (the default setting is enabled). There
are options that allow you to make changes to the Wi-Fi wireless network
settings.
Changing the Wireless Network Name (SSID)
To identify your wireless network, a name called the SSID (Service Set
Identifier) is used. The default SSID of the Modem is “AxessMU430”. You can
change this to anything you want to or you can leave it unchanged. If there are
other wireless networks operating in your area, you will want to make sure that
your SSID is unique (does not match that of another wireless network in the
area). To change the SSID, type in the SSID that you want to use in the “SSID”
field and click “Apply Changes”. The change is immediate. If you make a
change to the SSID, your wireless-equipped computers may also need to be
reconfigured to connect to your new network name. Refer to the documentation
of your wireless network adapter for information on making this change.
Using the Wireless Mode Switch
Your Modem can operate in three different wireless modes: “g and b”, “g only”,
and “b only”.
38
g and b Mode
In this mode, the Modem is compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g wireless
clients simultaneously. This is the factory default mode and ensures
successful operation with all Wi-Fi compatible devices. If you have a mix of
802.11b and 802.11g clients in your network, we recommend setting the
Modem to g and b mode. This setting should only be changed if you have a
specific reason to do so.
g only Mode
g only mode works with 802.11g clients only. This mode is recommended only
if you want to prevent 802.11b clients from accessing your network. To switch
modes, select the desired mode from the “Wireless Mode” drop-down box.
Then, click “Apply Changes”.
b only Mode
We recommend you DO NOT use this mode unless you have a very specific
reason to do so. This mode exists only to solve unique problems that may
occur with some 802.11b client adapters and is NOT necessary for
interoperability of 802.11g and 802.11b standards.
When to use b only Mode
In some cases, older 802.11b clients may not be compatible with 802.11g
wireless. These adapters tend to be of inferior design and may use older
drivers or technology. Switching to this mode can solve problems that
sometimes occur with these clients. If you suspect that you are using a client
adapter that falls into this category of adapters, first check with the adapter
vendor to see if there is a driver update. If there is no driver update available,
switching to b only mode may fix your problem. Please note that switching to
b only mode will decrease 802.11g performance.
Changing the Wireless Channel
There are a number of operating channels you can choose from. (The
available channel is 1~11). Your Modem is configured to operate on the
proper channels for the country you reside in. The default channel is 11
(unless you are in a country that does not allow channel 11). The channel can
be changed if needed. If there are other wireless networks operating in your
area, your network should be set to operate on a channel that is different than
the other wireless networks. For best performance, use a channel that is at
least five channels away from the other wireless network. For instance, if
another network is operating on channel 11, then set your network to channel
39
6 or below. To change the channel, select the channel from the drop-down list.
Click “Apply Changes”. The change is immediate.
Securing your Wi-Fi® Network
Here are a few different ways you can maximize the security of your wireless
network and protect your data from prying eyes and ears. This section is
intended for the home, home office, and small office user. At the time of this
User Manual’s publication, there are two encryption methods available.
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a common protocol that adds security to
all Wi-Fi compliant wireless products. WEP was designed to give wireless
networks the equivalent level of privacy protection as a comparable wired
network.
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is a new Wi-Fi standard that was designed to
improve upon the security features of WEP. To use WPA security, the drivers
and software of your wireless equipment must be upgraded to support WPA.
These updates will be found on the wireless vendor’s website. There are two
types of WPA security, WPA-PSK (no server) and WPA (with radius server).
WPA-PSK (no server) uses what is known as a pre-shared key as the network
key. A network key is basically a password that is between eight and 63
characters long. It can be a combination of letters, numbers, or characters.
Each client uses the same network key to access the network. Typically, this
is the mode that will be used in a home environment.
Maintenance: Router Status
Clicking on the header of the “Router Status” tab will take you to the “Router
Status” header page. A quick description of the functions can be found here.
1. IP Address
The “IP address” is the internal IP address of the Modem. The default IP
address is “192.168.0.1”. To access the web based Advanced User Interface,
type this IP address into the address bar of your browser. This address can be
changed if needed.
2. Subnet Mask
This is a unique, advanced feature of your Axesstel Modem. It is possible to
40
change the subnet mask if necessary; however, do NOT make changes to the
subnet mask unless you have a specific reason to do so. The default setting
is “255.255.255.0”.
From this page, users can see all settings associated with the Modem’s router
network functions. These functions include:
¾ Account Name and Firmware Version
¾ WAN Port: MAC Address, IP Address, DHCP choice, IP Subnet Mask
and Domain Name Server Address
¾ LAN Port: MAC Address, IP Address, DHCP choice and IP Subnet
Mask
¾ Wi-Fi Port *: SSID, Region, Channel, Mode, Wireless AP status
(ON/OFF) and Broadcast Name status (ON/OFF)
Users can click the button “Show Statistic” to see a graphic display of the router
performance.
Configuring Port Forwarding
Clicking on the header of the “Port Forwarding” tab will take you to the “Port
Forwarding” header page. This function will allow you to route external (Internet)
41
calls for services such as a web server (port 80), FTP server (Port 21), or other
applications through your Router to your internal network. Since your internal
computers are protected by a firewall, computers outside your network (over the
Internet) cannot get to them because they cannot be “seen.” A list of common
applications has been provided in case you need to configure the “Port
Forwarding” function for a specific application. You will need to contact the
application vendor to find out which port settings you need.
Note: This advanced feature should be employed by advanced users only.
Disable Port Forwarding
To disable Port Forwarding, uncheck the box “Enable Port Forwarding”.
Entering Settings into the Port Forwarding
To enter settings, select the service from the dropdown box “Protocol”. You will
see a list of common applications (FTP, HTTP, Net-Meeting…). Select the
desired applications, enter the IP address and the port number in the space
provided for the internal (server) machine and click “Apply”. Opening ports in
your firewall can pose a security risk. You can enable and disable settings very
quickly. It is recommended that you disable the settings when you are not using
a specific application.
Block Services
The Modem can be configured to restrict access to the Internet, email, or other
42
network services at specific days and times. Restriction can be set for a single
computer, a range of computers, or multiple computers.
To restrict Internet access to a single computer, for example, enter the IP address
of the computer you wish to restrict access to in the IP fields. Next, enter “80” in
both the port fields. Select “Block”.
MAC Block Services
The MAC address filter is a powerful security feature that allows you to specify
which computers are allowed on the network. Any computer attempting to
access the network that is not specified in the filter list will be denied access.
When you enable this feature, you must enter the MAC address of each client
(computer) on your network to allow network access to each.
MAC Services Blocking can be set in three modes.
¾ Disable. In this mode, there is no restriction to any device connected to
the Modem whether it is through Wi-Fi or Ethernet ports.
¾ Deny. In this mode, the service table shows the client MAC address
being blocked by the Modem.
¾ Allow. In this mode, the service table shows the client MAC address
allowed by the Modem.
To modify the service table (i.e. to add, change address or remove clients)
43
simply enter the correct value and click “Apply”.
Note: You will not be able to delete the MAC address of the computer you are
using to access the Router’s administrative functions (the computer you are
using now).
WAN Setup
Clicking on the header of the “WAN Setup” tab will take you to the “WAN Setup”
header page. From this page, the Modem’s DMZ, Internet Ping and HTTP can
be enabled or disabled.
Enabling the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ)
The DMZ feature allows you to specify one computer on your network to be
placed outside of the firewall. This may be necessary if the firewall is causing
problems with an application such as a game or video conferencing
application. Use this feature on a temporary basis. The computer in the DMZ
is NOT protected from hacker attacks.
WAN Ping Blocking
Computer hackers use what is known as “pinging” to find potential victims on
the Internet. By pinging a specific IP address and receiving a response from
the IP address, a hacker can determine that something of interest might be
there. The Modem can be set up so it will not respond to an ICMP ping from
the outside. This heightens the level of security of your Modem.
To turn OFF the ping response, select “Not Respond to Ping on Internet Port”
and click “Apply”. The Modem will not respond to an ICMP ping.
44
HTTP Ping Blocking
To turn OFF the HTTP response, select “Not Respond to HTTP on Internet
Port” and click “Apply”. The Modem will not respond to an HTTP ping.
LAN IP Setup
Clicking on the header of the “LAN IP Setup” tab will take you to its header page.
LAN TCP/IP Setup
All settings for the internal LAN setup of the Router can be viewed and
changed here.
1. IP Address: The “IP address” is the internal IP address of the Modem. The
default IP address is “192.168.0.1”. To access the Web Manager User
Interface, type this IP address into the address bar of your browser. This
address can be changed if needed. To change the IP address, type in the
new IP address and click “Apply”. The IP address you choose should be a
non-routable IP.
Examples of a non-routable IP are:
192.168.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255), and
10.x.x.x (where x is anything between 0 and 255).
2. Subnet Mask: There is no need to change the subnet mask. This is a
unique, advanced feature of your Modem. It is possible to change the
subnet mask if necessary; however, do NOT make changes to the subnet
45
mask unless you have a specific reason to do so. The default setting is
“255.255.255.0”.
Use Router as DHCP Server
The DHCP server function makes setting up a network very easy by
assigning IP addresses to each computer on the network automatically. The
DHCP server can be turned OFF if necessary; however, in order to do so
you must manually set a static IP address for each computer on your
network. To turn off the DHCP server, de-select “Use Router As DHCP
Server” and click “Apply”.
Static Route
A static IP address connection type is less common than other connection types.
If your ISP uses static IP addressing, you will need your IP address, subnet
mask, and ISP gateway address. This information is available from your ISP or
on the paperwork that your ISP left with you. Type in your information, and click
“Apply”.
1. IP Address: Provided by your ISP. Enter your IP address here.
2. Subnet Mask: Provided by your ISP. Enter your subnet mask here.
3. ISP Gateway Address: Provided by your ISP. Enter the ISP gateway
address here.
46
Troubleshooting
Problem:
Installation CD does not automatically start.
Solution:
If the CD-ROM does not start the Install software automatically, it could be
that the computer is running other applications that are interfering with the
CD drive.
1. If the Install screen does not appear within 15—20 seconds, open up
your CD-ROM drive by double-clicking on the “My Computer” icon that
is located on your desktop.
2. Next, double-click on the CD-ROM drive that the Install Software CD
has been placed in to start the installation.
3. The Install should start within a few seconds. If, instead, a window
appears showing the files on the CD, double-click on the icon labeled
“EasyInstall.exe”.
Problem:
• The Install software completed installation, but my web browser
doesn’t work.
• I am unable to connect to the Internet. The Modem’s “Signal” light is
on and the “Connect” light is off.
Solution:
If you cannot connect to the Internet, the “Signal” light is on, and the
“Connect” light is off, the problem may be your connection type may not
match the ISP’s connection.
• If you have a “static IP address” connection, your ISP must assign
you the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address. Please
refer to the section entitled “Alternate Setup Method” for details on
changing this setting.
47
• If you are still unable to access the Internet after verifying these
settings, please contact your Service Provider Technical Support.
Problem:
• The Install software completed installation, but my web browser
doesn’t work.
• I am unable to connect to the Internet. The Modem’s “Signal” light is
on and the “Connect” light is on.
Solution:
If the “Signal” light is on, and the “Connect” light is on, but you are unable to
access the Internet, there may be third-party firewall software installed on
the computer attempting to access the Internet. Examples of third-party
firewall software are ZoneAlarm, BlackICE PC Protection, McAfee Personal
Firewall, and Norton Personal Firewall.
If you do have firewall software installed on your computer, please make
sure that you properly configure it. You can determine if the firewall software
is preventing Internet access by temporarily turning it off. If, while the
firewall is disabled and Internet access works properly, you will need to
change the firewall settings to function properly when it is turned on.
Please refer to the instructions provided by the publisher of your firewall
software for instructions on configuring the firewall to allow Internet access.
If you are still unable to access the Internet after disabling any firewall
software, please contact your Service Provider Technical Support.
Problem:
I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly from my computer but it works if I
use the Ethernet cable.
Solution:
If you are unable to connect to the Internet from a wireless computer,
please do the following:
1. Look at the lights on your Modem. Your Modem’s lights should be as
follows:
• The “Power” light should be on.
48
• The “Connected” light should be on and not blinking.
• The “WAN” light should be either on or blinking.
2. Open your wireless utility software by clicking on the icon in the
system tray at the bottom, right-hand corner of the screen.
3. The exact window that opens will vary depending on the model of
wireless card you have; however, any of the utilities should have a list
of “Available Networks”—those wireless networks it can connect to.
Problem:
My wireless network performance is inconsistent.
Data transfer is sometimes slow.
Signal strength is poor.
I am having difficulty establishing and/or maintaining a Virtual Private
Network (VPN) connection.
Solution:
Wireless technology is radio-based, which means connectivity and the
throughput performance between devices decreases when the distance
between devices increases. Other factors that will cause signal degradation
(metal is generally the worst culprit) are obstructions such as walls and
metal appliances. As a result, the typical indoor range of your wireless
devices will be between 100 to 200 feet. Note also that connection speed
may decrease as you move farther away from the Modem or access point.
In order to determine if wireless issues are related to range, we suggest
temporarily moving the computer, if possible, five to 10 feet away from the
Modem.
Changing the Wireless Channel - Depending on local wireless traffic and
interference, switching the wireless channel of your network can improve
performance and reliability. The default channel the Modem is shipped with
is channel 11. You may choose from several other channels depending on
your region (see the section titled “Changing the Wireless Channel” on page
41 for instructions on how to choose other channels).
Limiting the Wireless Transmit Rate - Limiting the wireless transmit rate can
help improve the maximum wireless range and connection stability. Most
wireless cards have the ability to limit the transmission rate. To change this
property, go to the Windows Control Panel, open “Network Connections”
49
and double-click on your wireless card’s connection. In the “Properties”
dialog, select the “Configure” button on the “General” tab (Windows 98
users will have to select the wireless card in the list box and then click
“Properties”), then choose the “Advanced” tab and select the rate property.
Wireless client cards are usually set to automatically adjust the wireless
transmit rate for you, but doing so can cause periodic disconnects when the
wireless signal is too weak; as a rule, slower transmission rates are more
stable.
Experiment with different connection rates until you find the best one for
your environment; note that all available transmission rates should be
acceptable for browsing the Internet. For more assistance, see your
wireless card’s user manual.
Note) Please press reset button on the main set. After pressing the reset
button, the main set will powered off (it will not powered on automatically,
please switch off/on the power switch to get started)
