4 FCC Regulatory Statements FCC part 68 This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. On the bottom of this equipment is a label that contains the FCC Registration Number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. You must provide this information to the telephone company upon request. The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to the telephone line and still have those entire devices ring when your number is called. In most, but not all areas, the sum of the REN of all devices connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line, as determined by the REN, you should contact your local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area. If the modem causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may discontinue your service temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance. But if advance notice isn't practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC. The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect the proper operation of your equipment. If they do, you will be notified in advance to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted telephone service. If you experience trouble with this modem, please contact your dealer for repair/warranty information. The telephone company may ask you to disconnect this equipment from the network until the problem has been corrected or you are sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.

15 Security notes on wireless LAN products Wireless LAN has the advantage of a LAN connection without the use of LAN cables if the device is placed within the reach of radio waves. You can send and receive information between devices that use radio waves such as a computer and the wireless LAN access point (base unit). On the other hand, you may encounter the following problems if you do not complete the settings related to security because the radio waves reach beyond all obstacles such as walls if within a certain range. ●Interception of information: Some malicious computer users may intercept radio waves intentionally to discover your IDs, passwords, credit card numbers, e-mails, etc. ●Unauthorized intrusion: Some malicious computer users may access personal or office networks to gain personal or confidential information and send out false data. Also, they may intercept communication content, rewrite it, and then send it out. Furthermore, they may send out computer viruses to destroy data and systems. Wireless LAN products already have security systems so there is a low probability that any of the above problems will occur if you use the product with these settings. You should be fully aware of problems which may happen to you if you do not do your security configuration. We recommend that you use this product only after making the security setting you judge to be necessary based on a proper understanding of the problems which may occur if security settings are not configured. We, NEC AccessTechnica, Ltd., do not take responsibility for any damage caused by a security problem occurring because of a lack of a security measure or an unavoidable issue with the wireless LAN specifications. In addition, we recommend changing the encryption key and PIN code of the wireless LAN access point (base unit) on a regular basis to ensure safe use of the wireless LAN.
