Internet
Troubleshooting
Indicator Lights or
LCD Display
With your Modem now installed, and both the Modem and
computer power on, you should be able to surf the Internet! To
access the Internet, open the web browser that is installed on your
computer.
After installation, if you are experiencing difficulties with your
Internet connection, please review the Minimum Computing
Requirements and Addendum 1 to ensure your computer meets
those requirements. Next, go back over the installation procedures
and ensure those steps were completed properly.
Assuming the computer requirements are met and the installation
steps were completed as required, you will need to observe the
light indicators on the front of the LED Modem or the signal sync
and signal strength indicators on the LCD Modem. You also may
need to install the monitoring software. This software is provided
on a CD that came in your Modem package. Navini offers two
types of monitoring software. The first type, called the Navini
Ripwave Monitor, is available with Ripwave Modems that have a
software release prior to release 4.0. The second type, called the
Navini Diagnostics Tool, is available with Ripwave Modems that
have a software release of 4.0 or greater.
The Navini Monitor and Navini Diagnostics software assists in
solving connection problems as well as providing information
about the battery power in cases where batteries are used. Batteries
are optional with some Ripwave LED Modems.
The indicator lights on the front of the LED Modem provide
valuable information about its operation. They change appearance
to designate the state of the items that they represent. Used in
conjunction with the monitoring software, you can troubleshoot
signal issues, network connections, and power problems.
The LCD Display performs the same function as the indicator
lights. However, instead of using colored lights, it provides a text-
based display.

The next few sections will discuss how to install, troubleshoot
with, and uninstall your Navini Ripwave Monitor (NavMon)
software. If your Ripwave Modem has a software release of 4.0 or
greater, you do not have the NavMon. You have the Navini
Diagnostics software. You should refer to the sections that discuss
how to install, troubleshoot with, and uninstall your Navini
Diagnostics software.
Before you install your NavMon software, please note:
For Windows NT and Windows 2000 you must log into an
account having Administrative privileges in order to install the
Navini Monitor software.
For Windows 98, and 98SE Operating Systems (OS), the OS
CD may be required to complete this installation. If prompted,
insert the OS CD into the CD-ROM drive and accept the
defaults.
After the NavMon software is loaded, if you must upgrade your
PC OS, first uninstall NavMon prior to upgrading the OS.
Otherwise, NavMon will not work. See Uninstall instructions
in this Guide.
Note: The screenshots shown in these instructions were taken from
a laptop with Windows 2000. If you have a Windows 98, XP,
or ME operating system, the screens you see may vary from the

The Navini Ripwave Monitor icon will appear in the toolbox tray
of your computer. Double-click on this icon.
A window with icons and, provided your Modem is on, bar graphs,
will pop up. Notice the bottom right corner of the window shows
the Equipment Identification (EID) for your specific Ripwave
Modem. If you talk with a Service Technician while
troubleshooting, you may be asked for this number.

The icons represent the PC, the connection between the PC and the
Modem, the Modem, the connection between the Modem and the
Base Station, and the Base Station with which the Modem is
communicating.
The Signal Strength and Signal Quality are dynamic bar graphs
that indicate how well your Modem is receiving signals from the
Base Station. The Signal Strength is a negative number; therefore,
the stronger the signal, the lower (in absolute value) the number
displayed to the right of the bar. For example, -75 indicates a
stronger signal than –90. On the other hand, the Signal Quality is a
positive number; therefore, the higher the quality of the signal, the
higher the number displayed to the right of the second bar. For
example, 21 indicates a better signal than 15.
To increase the strength and quality of the signal, change the
location of the Ripwave Modem. Try moving it closer to a window,
to a higher location, away from other wireless devices (microwave
ovens, cordless phones), and away from metal objects (shelves, file
cabinets). As the Ripwave Modem is repositioned, observe the
Signal Strength and Signal Quality bar graphs. Position the Modem
for maximum signal strength and quality.

If you make a service call to your Service Provider, the Technician
may ask you to read the numbers to the right of the signal bar
graphs. These will help the Technician to evaluate the best position
for your Ripwave Modem. The Battery Strength bar graph and the
number to the right of it indicate how much charge is left in the
battery. Not all Modems have the battery option. Only some LED
Modems have a battery option. Without a battery in the Modem,
the Battery Strength bar graph and number will be disabled (grayed
out).
If the connection between the PC and the Modem or between the
Modem and the Base Station is interrupted, a, red circle with a
slash will be positioned over the corresponding icon.
In this example, the cable connecting the computer and Modem is
not operational; the wireless signal between Modem and Base
Station is down; and there is no battery being used.
To check connectivity to the Service Provider’s network, click the
Advanced button on the NavMon window. The Advanced section
of the window appears and displays several strings of characters
representing selected IP-addressable nodes in the network. These
strings of characters (displayed) and the associated IP addresses
(not displayed) are configurable by the Service Provider on a BTS-
per-BTS basis. Note that if the connection between the Ripwave
Modem and the Base Station is down, the Advanced button will be
disabled (grayed out).
The blue question marks on the right side of the Advanced section
indicate that all connections are untested. Now click on the Run
Tests button at the bottom of the window. The PC will attempt to
ping the IP address associated with each one of the character
strings. Each blue question mark will change to either a blue
checkmark or a red circle with a slash mark. A blue checkmark
indicates that the connection to the IP is good. A red circle with a
slash mark indicates there is a problem with that connection to that
IP (although the problem could be that an incorrect or unreachable
IP was configured).

The external batteries are not installed inside the Modem. Instead
they are connected to the Modem. Before we discuss how to
connect and charge the external battery packs, let’s discuss the
differences between the Standard External Battery Pack (S-EBP)
and the Heavy Duty External Battery Pack (HD-EBP).
The S-EBP can be used with any of the LED or LCD Modems.
The HD-EBP can be used with all LED and LCD Modems
except for the 2.4 GHz LED Modem. The 2.4 GHz Modem can
use only the S-EBP.
The HD-EBP provides 44 Watt-Hours of power while the S-
EBP provides 16 Watt-Hours of power.
The amount of time the S-EBP and HD-EBP can operate before
recharging varies. This time is dependent of the usage run on
the Ripwave Modem. The following table shows example
approximations for how long the batteries can run before a
recharge is required.
Usage Approximate hours of Usage Before
Recharge Required
S-EBP HD-EBP
Standard 2.2 5.9
Moderate 1.5 4.0
Heavy 1.2 3.4
To connect the S-EBP to any of the LED or LCD Modems, plug
the battery’s pig-tail cord into the input socket located on the back
of the Modem.

Charging the
Standard External
Battery Pack (S-
EBP)
The S-EBP has one indicator light that resides on top of the unit.
This light has four states associated with it. The states are
described below.
Light is off when any of the following apply:
• The battery is not connected to a Modem or to the battery
charger
• The battery is connected to a Modem but the Modem is off
• The battery is connected to a Modem and the Modem is on
but the battery is empty of power
Light is green when the battery is on and fully charged.
Light is amber when the battery has power but is no longer
fully charged. If the battery is connected to the battery charger,
an amber light means the battery is being charged.
Light is red when the battery is low on power. When the
battery is low, it has approximately 15% of its charge left.
The S-EBP will need to be recharged when the battery is connected
to a Modem and the Modem is turned on but the LED on top of the
battery remains off (indicating the battery has no power) or is red
(indicating the battery level is low).
To recharge the S-EBP, use only the 12V charger that came with
the S-EBP. Using any other charger may damage the battery. To
charge the S-EBP, plug the 12V adapter into the 12V input socket
on the S-EBP.
NOTE: The battery may charge while it is connected to a Modem.
NOTE: Do not attempt to plug the 12V adapter into the Modem as this may
harm the Modem.

Charging the
Heavy Duty
External Battery
Pack (HD-EBP)
The HD-EBP has one indicator light that resides on the back end of
the unit near the pig-tail cord. This light has four states associated
with it. The states are described below.
Light is off when any of the following apply:
• The battery is not connected to a Modem or to the battery
charger
• The battery is connected to a Modem but the Modem is off
• The battery is connected to a Modem and the Modem is on
but the battery is empty of power
Light is green when the battery is on and fully charged.
Light is amber when the battery has power but is no longer
fully charged. If the battery is connected to the battery charger,
an amber light means the battery is being charged.
Light is red when the battery is low on power. When the
battery is low, it has approximately 15% of its charge left.
The HD-EBP will need to be recharged when the battery is
connected to a Modem and the Modem is turned on but the LED on
the back of the battery remains off (indicating the battery has no
power) or is red (indicating the battery level is low).
To recharge the HD-EBP, use only the 12V charger that came with
the HD-EBP. Using any other charger may damage the battery.
To charge the HD-EBP:
Plug the 12V adapter into the 12V input socket on the HD-
EBP.
Plug the other end of the adapter into an electrical wall socket.
NOTE: Do not attempt to plug the 12V adapter into the Modem as this may
harm the Modem.
NOTE: The battery may charge while it is connected to a Modem.

Care &
Maintenance
The Ripwave Modem is designed to give years of trouble-free
service. To ensure operation, read the following care and
maintenance instructions.
Keep the Modem free of dust and moisture. If the Modem gets
wet, use a towel to dry it immediately.
Handle the Modem gently. Dropping it or mishandling it can
cause damage to the plastic shell or the electronic circuitry.
Keep the Modem away from high temperatures. Heat can cause
damage to the plastic shell or the electronic circuitry.
Use only a mild detergent and a soft, damp cloth to clean the
Modem. Do not use any chemicals or abrasives to clean the
plastic shell.
If there is a problem with the Modem, do not attempt to repair
it yourself. Report the problem to your Service Provider.
If you are going to upgrade your Operating System after
loading the Navini monitoring software (Navini Ripwave
Monitor or Navini Diagnostics), you must first uninstall the
monitoring software prior to upgrading the OS. Otherwise, the
monitoring software will not work. See Uninstall instructions
in this Guide.
The Ripwave Modem must be left powered ON whenever you
shut down or restart any Windows 98 or ME platforms. If the
Modem is off, a blue screen appears on the monitor. In the
event this happens you will mostly likely have to power cycle
the PC.

Upgrading the
Modem
There are three different ways to upgrade the software that makes
the Modem work.
Your Service Provider may perform an over-the-air (OTA)
upgrade, where the up-to-date software files are transferred
wirelessly from the Base Station to your Modem.
Your Service Provider may provide a downloadable web file or
CD-ROM with software to be installed on your PC and used to
upgrade the Modem. This method is used for systems that have
a software release prior to 4.0. You will need the CCU Tool to
load the software.
Your Service Provider may instruct you to use your Navini
Diagnostics Tool to upgrade your Modem software load. This
method is used for systems that have a software release of 4.0
or greater and have the NavDiag monitoring software installed.
The latter two methods are used only if the Modem was not
powered on during the OTA upgrade process. The OTA upgrade is
normally transparent to the user; in other words, there should be no
noticeable service interruption. The web or CD upgrade comes
with instructions and takes a minimal amount of time to complete.
Note: If you use the Navini Diagnostics Tool to upgrade your
Modem software load, the computer connected to your Modem
must already have an IP address. If your computer does not have an
IP address, contact your Service Provider. If you attempt to
upgrade your Modem software through the Navini Diagnostics
Tool and the computer does not have an assigned IP address, you
may see one of the following error messages:

ADDENDUM 1: Ripwave™ Modem - PC Troubleshooting
- For Use With All Ripwave Modems, Navini Ripwave Monitor Software, and Navini Diagnostics
Software -
PC Operating Systems
Prior to installing the Navini Ripwave Monitor or Navini Diagnostics software, please check to insure
that the PC Operating System meets the criteria given in the table below. If these criteria are not met,
unpredictable problems may occur as a result of installation. It is recommended that the user have the
latest Windowsc updates installed prior to installing the Navini Ripwave Monitor or Navini Diagnostics
software.
Operating System Ethernet interface USB interface Notes
Win95 Supported Not Supported 1, 2
Win98 Supported Supported 2
Win98, 2nd ed. Supported Supported 2
WinME Supported Supported 2
Win 2000 Supported Supported 2, 4
Win NT 3.0/4.0 Supported Not Supported 1, 2, 4
Win XP Supported Supported 3, 4
Note 1: USB was not supported in this software release
Note 2: Internet Explorer 3.0 or higher is required
Note 3: Requires Service Pack 1
Note 4: To load the Navini Ripwave Monitor or Navini Diagnostics software, the user MUST have Administrative
privileges.
USB Interface
The USB Modem allows for a single PC to be connected to the Ripwave Modem via a USB interface, or
multiple PC’s connected via a USB hub. The Modem conforms to USB 1.1 standards. The Ethernet
packets generated by the PC are encapsulated within the USB protocol and transferred to the Modem.
The packets are then sent over-the-air. The USB Modem is fully supported for PC’s using Windows 98,
Windows ME, Windows 2000, and Windows NT 5.0.
To install the Modem using a USB interface, you must connect the Modem to the PC first and insert the
CD that comes with the modem in the package to load the USB “Miniport” driver. After installing the
USB Miniport driver, the PC may or may not need to be restarted, depending upon the type of Operating
System and the particular installation. The system will prompt if a reboot is necessary.
Now install the Navini Ripwave Monitor or Navini Diagnostics software. You must ALWAYS reboot
the PC after installing or uninstalling this software. Failure to do may gravely affect PC operation.

Ethernet Interface
The Ethernet Modem may be connected to a PC via an Ethernet connection. Also, it is possible to
connect multiple PC devices to a single Modem. The multi-PC configuration is transparent to the PC
users and is analogous to a multi-PC configuration on a normal Ethernet LAN. Check with your Service
Provider if multiple IP addressing is required for your particular configuration. The distinct advantage of
the Ethernet Modem is that it connects to any device that has an Ethernet interface. This makes it ideal
for small businesses that have a mix of devices, such as Unix machines, Apple Computers, etc. IP
addresses can be assigned to the devices dynamically via a DHCP server, or as Fixed IP assignments, or
Point-to-Point Protocol Over Ethernet (PPPoE).
Multiple Interface Environments
When a PC has an internal interface (for example, a Wireless Ethernet interface) in addition to the
Ripwave Modem, you should do the following:
• If the wireless connection is not required, disable the internal wireless connection
• If the built-in wireless connection is required for local networking and wireline Ethernet is used via
the Ripwave Modem for Internet connection, change the interface metric configuration so that the
wireline interface’s default gateway is used. (See your Operating System’s User Guide.)
Routers
Neither the Navini Ripwave Monitor nor the Navini Diagnostics software will work if it goes through a
router.
Battery
Older Ripwave Modems gave the user the option of buying an 1800 mA Li-Ion battery. With the optional
battery, the user could be connected to the Internet anytime and anywhere there is RF coverage without
the need for a power outlet. The Modem battery was rated to provide 30 minutes to 90 minutes of use
without recharging (depending on activity).
