It’s divided into four sections: ● Getting Started page 2 ● Setting up Optional Components page 7 ● Using Your AIRAVE™ page12 ● Troubleshooting page 14 ● Safety Information page 23 Throughout this guide, you’ll find tips and techniques that help you make the most of your new device and service. The Table of Contents and Index also help you quickly locate specific information. It is important that you read each section and note any special requirements. However, if you’d like to get right to a specific feature, simply locate that section in the Table of Contents and go directly to that page. Follow the instructions in that section, and you’ll be ready to use your AIRAVE in no time. WARNING: Please read the safety information on page 23 to learn about how to safely use your device. Failure to read and follow the safety information in this user guide may result in serious bodily injury, death, or property damage. 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. The following table shows the LED startup sequence.

Tip: To ensure the best voice and data quality of service, always connect the LAN router to your AIRAVE. Do not connect it to the broadband connection device. Configuring AIRAVE™ Router Your AIRAVE contains a built-in router. Usually, you can plug your AIRAVE into your broadband connection device, such as a cable modem, DSL modem or FiOS (a high-speed, fiber optic broadband Internet service), without performing any additional steps. However, you may need to configure the built-in router to work with your ISP modem or connection device. The following table lists typical ISP setups and actions to take so that the built-in router works with your existing ISP setup. Broadband connection device Cable modem DSL modem DSL modem with built-in router Cable modem with built-in router FiOS LED display pattern Symptom Broadband and Mobile solid green Broadband LED blinking red Not applicable Not applicable (working properly) Cannot access Go to “Adding Your ISP Internet User name and Password” Cannot access See FAQ. Internet If the problem persists, contact Customer Support Cannot make a as described in “Getting mobile phone call Help” through the AIRAVE Broadband LED blinking red Mobile LED blinking red Action to take 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. 11 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 Recommended Download Speed Recommended Upload Speed Wireless Call 40 kbps per call 40 kbps per call 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.

The AIRAVE has a GPS antenna so that it can: ● Synchronize properly with the rest of Sprint’s network. ● Determine and select the correct radio frequencies available in your area so that the AIRAVE uses the correct ones. Why does the AIRAVE™ need an external GPS antenna? Your device needs the external antenna only when the internal GPS antenna cannot lock on to sufficient satellite signals. The external antenna lets the AIRAVE lock on to the greatest number of satellites. What happens to the AIRAVE™ if there is a power outage or if you lose Internet access? The AIRAVE needs both a broadband Internet connection and a constant power supply to work. During a power outage your wireless phone or device will immediately switch to the Sprint network. Can you move the AIRAVE™ to another location? Yes, you can move your device to another location within the Sprint network. However, to move your device to a different address, you must first update your service address by logging into your account on www.sprint.com. How do I know if my phone is connecting through the AIRAVE? By dialing *99 on your wireless phone, an audio message will confirm if you are in range of the AIRAVE. Also, you will hear three short beeps on your wireless phone before making and receiving calls.
