Getting Started
Check What’s in the Box
Ensure that the following items are in the box:
Tip:
See the Read Me First for detailed illustrations on setting up your AIRAVE.
Set up at a glance
Setting up Your AIRAVE™
1. Disconnect the power from all devices on your network.
Note:
This includes your cable or DSL modem and router.
2. Place your AIRAVE close to a window and in a central location. For best results, place the
AIRAVE in an elevated location, such as the top of a bookshelf or tall cabinet.
Note:
In large homes, the external GPS antenna can be used to allow the AIRAVE to be
placed in a more central location. This allows the AIRAVE to provide even coverage
throughout the home.
3. Connect one end of the yellow Ethernet cable to an available LAN port on your broadband
modem.
4. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to your AIRAVE’s yellow WAN port.
5. Turn on your cable or DSL modem.
Important
Wait a couple of minutes for the cable or DSL modem to fully initialize before
continuing.
6. Plug the power supply connector into the black power port on your AIRAVE.
7. Plug the other end into an available electrical outlet.
External GPS Antenna Setup
Use the external GPS antenna if your AIRAVE’s internal antenna does not gain a signal for GPS
lock (indicated by a solid red GPS LED for more than 40 minutes, solid green indicates GPS
lock). Connect the external GPS antenna to your device’s GPS connection port.
Note: After initial installation GPS may take 30-40 minutes to get a GPS fix.
1. Remove the GPS antenna module from the back of the AIRAVE. Connect the GPS cord to
the antenna module and the AIRAVE. (See inset in drawing.)
2. Place the external GPS antenna horizontally on a flat surface as close to a window as
possible. The antenna works best in an open area where it can easily pick up signals.
Note: Be sure to place the GPS antenna module tape-side down on a horizontal surface.
When is Your AIRAVE Ready for Use?
After installing and turning on your AIRAVE for the first time, AIRAVE goes through an
automated setup sequence. See the table below.
During this time, the device’s green LEDs will be solid for a few seconds, and then all LEDs,
except the Broadband LED, will turn off until the software loads. This process may take up to 2
hours.
When the Broadband, GPS, Network, and Mobile LEDs are solid green, your AIRAVE is ready
for use.
Note:
For a summary of LED status indicators, see LED Quick Reference. For complete
descriptions of LED states, see Using LEDs.
Tip:
You will hear three short beeps when placing or answering calls on your wireless phone
if you are within range of the AIRAVE.

Adding Your ISP User Name and Password
If you are using a DSL modem and your device cannot connect to the Internet, you may need to
enter your Internet service provider (ISP) account user name and password so that the AIRAVE
can connect to the Internet.
Tip:
Before you begin, obtain your ISP user name and password. Contact your ISP if you do
not have this information.
1. Ensure that your PC is networked with the AIRAVE.
2. Enter the following IP address in your Web browser:
192.168.17.1:80
The login dialog box appears.
3. Enter “admin” in both the User name and Password boxes and click OK.
4. Click the Setup tab on the Router status page menu bar. Click WAN Settings.
5. Ensure that Yes (PPPoE) is selected.
6. Enter your ISP user name in the Login box (overwrite “Guest”) and your password in the
Password box. Click OK.
10
7. Accept the defaults in other fields on the screen and click Apply.
When the Broadband LED is solid green your Internet connection is available. If setting up PPPoE takes
more than 15 minutes at startup, the Broadband LED will turn solid red. Once the PPPoE connection is
set up, the LED turns solid green. If the LED remains solid red, contact your ISP.

Using Your AIRAVE™
How AIRAVE Works
The AIRAVE™ is a femtocell, a personal base station with a radio unit that is similar to a cell
tower radio. The base station uses a low-power antenna to transmit voice and data cellular
signals in your home or small office.
Base stations give you better cellular coverage, which means a stronger signal and improved
voice quality. A strong signal can extend battery life. Also, data applications on smartphones,
such as mobile email devices, work faster.
The AIRAVE connects to Sprint’s network through your broadband Internet connection.
Outgoing calls go from the AIRAVE over a secure connection to Sprint’s network; incoming calls
reverse this route.
Your Broadband Connection Speed
The AIRAVE’s actual transmission speed is only as fast as your maximum broadband
connection speed. Internet congestion, the number of users on your provider’s network, and
other factors can decrease your actual broadband connection speed. Individual bandwidth
needs vary per customer. Sprint recommends a minimum of 300 kbps (both upstream and
downstream) for voice services and 3 Mbps downstream and 1.8 Mbps upstream for data
services.
The following table shows recommended bandwidth by usage type:
Usage Type

Wireless Data
Up to 3 Mbps per session
Up to 1.8 Mbps per session
12
How Calls and Data Go Over the Internet
Maintenance
With normal use, your AIRAVE is maintenance-free. Follow the recommendations below to
ensure that it runs optimally.
Ventilation
Your AIRAVE has ventilation slots that work best if you don’t block the flow of air to them. Keep
your device at least 2 inches (5 cm) from walls and other surfaces to ensure proper air flow.
Cleaning
Dust your AIRAVE occasionally to keep air vents clear of debris. Do not use liquid cleaners.
13
Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Installation Problems
If your Broadband turns solid red after 15 minutes, reversing the order of turning on the AIRAVE
and your cable or DSL modem can often resolve this problem. To reverse the order, follow
these procedures:
1. Unplug all cables and power cords from all devices. You can unplug devices in any order.
2. Connect all Ethernet and GPS cables as described in “Setting up Your AIRAVE™” (page 4).
Important: Do not connect any power cords at this point in the procedure.
3. Plug the AIRAVE into an electrical outlet.
4. Wait 4 minutes.
5. Plug your cable or DSL modem into an electrical outlet.
Tip:
You may want to consult your cable or DSL modem documentation for any special
procedures for connecting a device directly to your cable or DSL modem.
If the Broadband LED turns solid red after 15 minutes, call Customer Support as described in
Getting Help.
14
Resetting the AIRAVE
If your AIRAVE was operating properly for an extended period and the Mobile LED suddenly
starts blinking red, the AIRAVE may have a problem requiring a reset. To reset the AIRAVE,
push the Reset button for at least 10 seconds (as shown in the drawing below).
After resetting, your AIRAVE goes through an automated setup sequence. During this time, the
device’s green LEDs will be solid for a few seconds, and then all LEDs will turn off until the
software loads. The reset process may take 30-45 minutes.
After resetting the AIRAVE, if the failure persists, contact Customer Care. See Getting Help on
page 21.
