System Requirements

Compatible with Mini PCI-e Module or USB 3G/4G modem card with activated

service. NOTE: Subject to terms available from your carrier.

Computer with Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7, Macintosh, or Linux-based

operating system with an integrated Ethernet adapter or Wireless Wi-Fi 802.11 G

interface. Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, and Google Chrome (for accessing

web-based conﬁguration settings).

Wi-Fi Requirements

IEEE 802.11 b/g/n adapter. NOTE: Mini PCI-e Modules, and USB modems need to

be activated through your cellular service provider prior to insertion into the

BC2400M High Availability Router.

Hardware Setup

The BC2400M High Availability Router allows you to access your network using a

wireless connection from virtually anywhere within its operating range. Please

note that location placement of the router could aﬀect the wireless signal and

range limits.

Typical ranges also vary depending on the types of materials and background RF

(Radio Frequency) noise present in your networking environment.

To maximize your wireless range, please follow these guidelines:

Choose the right location in your environment for the BC2400M High Availability

Router. The WLAN transmitters are radios; their signals radiate out from the

antenna, and degrade as they go through walls, ﬂoors, and obstacles like tubs full

of water (almost impenetrable), stone, or concrete. So for best reception, place

your router centrally to the rooms in which you expect to use WLAN the most.

Each wall or ceiling can reduce the BC2400M’s range by as much as 90 feet (27

meters). NOTE: The same considerations apply to your carrier’s 3G/4G broadband

carrier’s connection.

Keep your product away from electrical devices (such as microwaves, air

conditioners, cordless phones, refrigerators and televisions) that emit large

quantities of RFI (Radio Frequency Interference).

BC2400M High Availability Router Setup NOTE: DO NOT connect the BC2400M

to power before following the installation steps below!

Mini PCI-e Module or USB connection:

Insert an activated Mini PCI-e Module into the card slot and connect the two Ipex

Coax Cables per the diagram below.

Alternatively, insert an activated USB modem into the USB slot.

Ethernet connection:

Insert one end of an Ethernet cable into the LAN Port on the back panel of the

router. Insert the other end into an available Ethernet port of the network adapter

in the computer that will be used to conﬁgure the unit. LAN LED should be on

when connected. If not, check the connection between the router and computer.

LAN LED should be on when connected. If not, check the connection between the

router and computer.

NOTE: The BC2400M LAN Port is “Auto-MDI/MDIX”, so any standard

Ethernet cable will work.

Connect the power adapter to the receptor on the back panel of the router. Plug

the other end of the power adapter into a wall outlet or power strip. The LAN &

Wi-Fi LED will turn ON and occasionally ﬂash, indicating that the unit is powered

on. The 3G/4G LED will ﬂash and stabilize once a 3G/4G connection is established.

Upon completion of the boot-up cycle, the 3G light, LAN and Wi-Fi lights will be

on. Occational ﬂashing may occur indicating normal activity.

NOTE: An Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is recommended for power surges

and/or outages. At a minimum, a surge protector should always be used to

protect the equipment from being damaged by electrical spikes and transients.

Wi-Fi Connection:

If you are connecting wirelessly to the BC2400M High Availability Router, you

must ensure that the security settings on the connecting PC are the same as those

on the router.

By default, the router broadcasts a secure Wi-Fi signal with WPA-PSK encryption:

SSID / Wi-Fi Signal Name is set to NEXWARE###

(where ### equal the last three characters of the router’s MAC address).

Channel is set to channel 5(2.4GHz).

Security is set to WPA-PSK.

Key (password) is set to password

NOTE: It is recommended, for security reasons, that the security

settings on the router be changed during initial setup.

Please refer to your computer’s Wi-Fi adapter documentation for

additional information.

Initial 3G/4G Setup

Connecting to the Router Main Page for Installation and Conﬁguration Settings

Follow the steps below to access the Router and perform installation and

conﬁgure settings:

Open a web-browser on your computer connected to the router’s LAN port by an

Ethernet cable.

Enter the IP address of the BC2400M in the URL line of your web browser:

http://192.168.1.1

NOTE: If you have changed the router’s default IP address, enter that

address instead of the one above.

Type “admin” in the Password ﬁeld. If you have changed the password, enter the

new one in this ﬁeld. NOTE: Default Username is “root“.

Click “Login” button.

You will be greeted by the iconic home page.

Basic Settings

Setup Wizard

Select the Setup Wizard Icon. Select the Next button to proceed with the

indicated steps of the automated setup process.

1. Change your administration password.

It is recommended that the default password "admin" be replaced for security

reasons. Enter your new password and then re-enter to conﬁrm.

Select next to retain any changes and move to the next step

2. Set up your Wired Internet connection.

During the boot up process of the router if your wide area network (WAN)

Ethernet cable is plugged into the WAN port of the router, the router will

automatically be connected to your ISP.

If your ISP requires you to setup the WAN as a PPPoE or PPTP, you will need to

enter your ISP’s required information into the proper ﬁelds.

PPPoE Typical entries include the Username and Password

PPTP Typical entries include the Username, Password, and the PPTP Server Name.

3. 3G/4G Internet Connection Setup.

During the boot up process of the router all compatible data cards or modules are

recognized and are setup automatically. No additional information is typically

required to complete the setup of your compatible 3G/4G data card or module. If

your ISP requires additional information to connect to their network, please refer

to their documentation for APN, PIN Code, Username, and Password. All data

entry ﬁelds may not be required to connect to your ISP’s network.

4. Conﬁgure your wireless settings.

This step allows you to change whether the Wi-Fi is enabled, the

channel on which the Wi-Fi is broadcast on, the name that is broadcast,

the mode, the encryption type, and the key (password) to access the

broadcasted Wi-Fi signal.

Disable only if you do not want anyone accessing the router wirelessly.

Change channel if other wireless devices are interfering with the router.

Change the Network Name (ESSID) to whatever name you wish to be

broadcasted.

Hiding the ESSID does not disable the Wi-Fi signal and should not be thought of

as security setting. Hiding the ESSID only eliminates the name from being

broadcasted.

Select the router's wireless operation mode. Provide, Independent, or Join. The

default setting is Provide (Access Point).

Change encryption type as necessary. Some wireless devices cannot connect to all

encryption modes. The default setting is WPA-PSK. Other typical choices include

WEP (ASCII or Hex), WPA=PSK, or WPA2-PSK. Additional available settings require

additional software or hardware not included with this router.

Change Key (password). We suggest that this setting be changed. This setting

controls the require Key or password to access your wireless signal.

Select Next to retain any changes and move to the Completion page and select

Finish.

Admin Password

You can change the router's administrative password. (default = admin).

Wi-Fi Settings

Here you can change whether the Wi-Fi is enabled, the channel on which the Wi-Fi

is broadcast on, the name that is broadcast, the wireless mode, the encryption

type, the key (password) to access the broadcasted Wi-Fi signal, and enable

Wireless Distribution System (WDS).

Disable only if you do not want anyone accessing the router wirelessly.

Change channel if other wireless devices are interfering with the router.

Change the router’s Wireless Mode. Choose from six settings, b, g, or n and mixes.

Routing mode is factory set to Provide (Access Point).

Choose to hide the ESSID.

Change the Network Name (ESSID) to whatever name you wish to be

broadcasted.

Change security and encryption type as necessary. Some wireless devices cannot

connect to all security modes.

Change Key (password). We suggest that this setting be changed.

Choose to enable MAC Address ﬁltering, then select ﬁlter policy and create the

address list.

You can change the router's administrative password. (default = admin).

NOTE: After any changes, select ”Save” to retain. System will refresh following,

“Save”.

WDS: Wireless Distribution System (WDS) is a feature that allows multiple access

points of the same physical radio type to be bridged together as one common

Wi-Fi network. Because the same physical radio type must be used, this feature

only operates with other Nexaira routers. The following conﬁguration options are

available:

BSSID: Your router supports up to four WDS clients. Enter the BSSID (MAC address

listed on the bottom label of the router, also listed under LAN on the Wired

Interfaces page) of the other devices to be connected to via WDS.

NOTE: External WiFi antennas selection is on System Setting page. Router

conﬁguration must use internal WiFi antennas if using a Mini PCI-e Module, as the

Module requires use of the two RP-SMA Female connectors on Rear of Router.

Default conﬁguration is for Internal WiFi Antennas.

Interfaces

Here you can review WAN, and LAN status as well as change Local Network, and

WAN Ethernet settings.

The IP address is the address of the router. It is also your local network’s gateway

address which is used by all LAN hosts to access the Internet through the WAN

connection.

The Netmask is used to determine the number of sub networks that can be

connected to the router.

The IP Gateway (optional) ﬁeld is and advanced and optional setting that available

if your local network has a gateway that is diﬀerent than the router's LAN IP

address.

DNS Server (optional) allows you to specify a DNS server for LAN hosts to use if

your WAN connection does not supply a valid server address, or if not-peer DNS

Server information is required or chosen under Cellular Datacard settings.

Change WAN port into a second LAN port.

Enable IP Pass-through mode to have one client have the WAN IP. All router

functions are disabled.

Enable or disable the router’s ability to connect to the internet through a WAN

Ethernet connection.

NOTE: After any changes, select ”Save” to retain. System will refresh following,

“Save”

Network Traﬃc

The Network Traﬃc status screen shows current traﬃc status of active interfaces,

such as the LAN, the connected Datacard, and the WAN.

Exhibit A (Open Source Codes)

The Software includes third party codes that are licensed to you pursuant to the

license agreements listed below:

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

Version 2, June 1991

Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute

verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share

and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to

guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the

software is free for all its users. This General Public License applies to most of the

Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors

commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by

the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your programs,

too.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our

General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to

distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you

receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software

or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these

things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny

you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate

to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you

modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee,

you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that

they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these

terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) oﬀer you

this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the

software.

Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that

everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the

software is modiﬁed by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to

know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced by

others will not reﬂect on the original authors' reputations.

Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to

avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain

patent licenses, in eﬀect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have

made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not

licensed at all.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modiﬁcation

follow.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING,

DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice

placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of

this General Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such program or

work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any

derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program

or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modiﬁcations and/or translated into

another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the

term "modiﬁcation".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".

Activities other than copying, distribution and modiﬁcation are not covered by

this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not

restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents

constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by

running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as

you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately

publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty;

keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any

warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License

along with the Program.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at

your option oﬀer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus

forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such

modiﬁcations or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also

meet all of these conditions:

a) You must cause the modiﬁed ﬁles to carry prominent notices stating that you

changed the ﬁles and the date of any change.

b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part

contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a

whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.

c) If the modiﬁed program normally reads commands interactively when run, you

must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary

way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright

notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a

warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions,

and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program

itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work

based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modiﬁed work as a whole. If identiﬁable sections

of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered

independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms,

do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But

when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based

on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this

License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and

thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to

work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control

the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the

Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or

distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this

License.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section

2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above

provided that you also do one of the following:

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code,

which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a

medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

b) Accompany it with a written oﬀer, valid for at least three years, to give any third

party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source

distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source

code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium

customarily used for software interchange; or,

c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the oﬀer to distribute

corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial

distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable

form with such an oﬀer, in accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making

modiﬁcations to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the

source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface deﬁnition

ﬁles, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the

executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not

include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with

the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on

which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the

executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by oﬀering access to copy

from a designated place, then oﬀering equivalent access to copy the source code

from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third

parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as

expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,

sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your

rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights,

from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such

parties remain in full compliance.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it.

However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program

or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept

this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work

based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and

all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or

works based on it.

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program),

the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy,

distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may

not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights

granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties

to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or

for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you

(whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions

of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you

cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this

License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not

distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit

royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly

or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this

License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular

circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a

whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other

property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the

sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system,

which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made

generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that

system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the

author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any

other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a

consequence of the rest of this License.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries

either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who

places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical

distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted

only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License

incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the

General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in

spirit to the present version, but may diﬀer in detail to address new problems or

concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program speciﬁes a

version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have

the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any

later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not

specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever

published by the Free Software Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs

whose distribution conditions are diﬀerent, write to the author to ask for

permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation,

write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.

Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all

derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of

software generally.

NO WARRANTY

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO

WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS

AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF

ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE

IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR

PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE

PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME

THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN

WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY

MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE

TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR

CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE

PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING

RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A

FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF

SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF

SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs

If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use

to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software which

everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.

To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach them to

the start of each source ﬁle to most eﬀectively convey the exclusion of warranty;

and each ﬁle should have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the

full notice is found.

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the

terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software

Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.

This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY

WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS

FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more

details.

You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with

this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street,

Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA.

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.

If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it starts

in an interactive mode:

Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author Gnomovision comes

with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. This is free software,

and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions; type `show c' for

details.

The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate

parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may be

called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be mouse-

clicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if

any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. Here is a

sample; alter the names:

Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into

proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may consider it

more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is

what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General Public License instead of this

License.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version 2.1, February 1999

Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute

verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

[This is the ﬁrst released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts as the successor

of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the version number 2.1.]

Preamble

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share

and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are intended to

guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the

software is free for all its users.

This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially

designated software packages--typically libraries--of the Free Software

Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we

suggest you ﬁrst think carefully about whether this license or the ordinary General

Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular case, based on the

explanations below.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, not price. Our

General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to

distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish); that you

receive source code or can get it if you want it; that you can change the software

and use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can

do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors to

deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these rights. These restrictions

translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the library or

if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a fee, you

must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must make sure that

they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other code with the

library, you must provide complete object ﬁles to the recipients, so that they can

relink them with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling it.

And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library, and

(2) we oﬀer you this license, which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute

and/or modify the library.

To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no warranty

for the free library. Also, if the library is modiﬁed by someone else and passed on,

the recipients should know that what they have is not the original version, so that

the original author's reputation will not be aﬀected by problems that might be

introduced by others.

Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free

program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot eﬀectively restrict the

users of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent holder.

Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained for a version of the library

must be consistent with the full freedom of use speciﬁed in this license.

Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary GNU

General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General Public License,

applies to certain designated libraries, and is quite diﬀerent from the ordinary

General Public License. We use this license for certain libraries in order to permit

linking those libraries into non-free programs.

When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a shared

library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a combined work, a

derivative of the original library. The ordinary General Public License therefore

permits such linking only if the entire combination ﬁts its criteria of freedom. The

Lesser General Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with

the library.

We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it does Less to

protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General Public License. It also

provides other free software developers Less of an advantage over competing

non-free programs. These disadvantages are the reason we use the ordinary

General Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser license provides

advantages in certain special circumstances.

For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage the

widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. To

achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library. A more

frequent case is that a free library does the same job as widely used non-free

libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free

software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.

In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs enables

a greater number of people to use a large body of free software. For example,

permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many more

people to use the whole GNU operating system, as well as its variant, the

GNU/Linux operating system.

Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the users'

freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked with the Library

has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a modiﬁed

version of the Library.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modiﬁcation

follow. Pay close attention to the diﬀerence between a "work based on the library"

and a "work that uses the library". The former contains code derived from the

library, whereas the latter must be combined with the library in order to run.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING,

DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which

contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized party saying

it may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also

called "this License"). Each licensee is addressed as "you".

A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so as to

be conveniently linked with application programs (which use some of those

functions and data) to form executables.

The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work which has been

distributed under these terms. A "work based on the Library" means either the

Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work

containing the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modiﬁcations

and/or translated straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter,

translation is included without limitation in the term "modiﬁcation".)

"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for making

modiﬁcations to it. For a library, complete source code means all the source code

for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface deﬁnition ﬁles, plus the

scripts used to control compilation and installation of the library.

Activities other than copying, distribution and modiﬁcation are not covered by

this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running a program using the

Library is not restricted, and output from such a program is covered only if its

contents constitute a work based on the Library (independent of the use of the

Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library

does and what the program that uses the Library does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's complete source

code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and

appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and

disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to

the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the

Library.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at

your option oﬀer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus

forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute such modiﬁcations

or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of

these conditions:

a) The modiﬁed work must itself be a software library.

b) You must cause the ﬁles modiﬁed to carry prominent notices stating that you

changed the ﬁles and the date of any change.

c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third

parties under the terms of this License.

d) If a facility in the modiﬁed Library refers to a function or a table of data to be

supplied by an application program that uses the facility, other than as an

argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith

eﬀort to ensure that, in the event an application does not supply such function or

table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of its purpose remains

meaningful.

(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a purpose that is

entirely well-deﬁned independent of the application. Therefore, Subsection 2d

requires that any application-supplied function or table used by this function

must be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square root function

must still compute square roots.)

These requirements apply to the modiﬁed work as a whole. If identiﬁable sections

of that work are not derived from the Library, and can be reasonably considered

independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms,

do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But

when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based

on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License,

whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to

each and every part regardless of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to

work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control

the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Library.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with the

Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of a storage or

distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this

License.

3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License

instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you must alter all

the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU

General Public License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If a newer version

than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you

can specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in

these notices.

Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, so the

ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all subsequent copies and

derivative works made from that copy.

This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library into a

program that is not a library.

4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it, under

Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2

above provided that you accompany it with the complete corresponding

machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of

Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange.

If distribution of object code is made by oﬀering access to copy from a designated

place, then oﬀering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same

place satisﬁes the requirement to distribute the source code, even though third

parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is

designed to work with the Library by being compiled or linked with it, is called a

"work that uses the Library". Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of

the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this License.

However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library creates an

executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it contains portions of the

Library), rather than a "work that uses the library". The executable is therefore

covered by this License. Section 6 states terms for distribution of such

executables.

When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header ﬁle that is part of

the Library, the object code for the work may be a derivative work of the Library

even though the source code is not. Whether this is true is especially signiﬁcant if

the work can be linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The

threshold for this to be true is not precisely deﬁned by law.

If such an object ﬁle uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts and

accessors, and small macros and small inline functions (ten lines or less in length),

then the use of the object ﬁle is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a

derivative work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the

Library will still fall under Section 6.)

Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute the object

code for the work under the terms of Section 6. Any executables containing that

work also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly with the

Library itself.

6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a "work

that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a work containing portions of

the Library, and distribute that work under terms of your choice, provided that the

terms permit modiﬁcation of the work for the customer's own use and reverse

engineering for debugging such modiﬁcations.

You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is

used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by this License. You must

supply a copy of this License. If the work during execution displays copyright

notices, you must include the copyright notice for the Library among them, as

well as a reference directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do

one of these things:

a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-readable

source code for the Library including whatever changes were used in the work

(which must be distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an

executable linked with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work

that uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the user can

modify the Library and then relink to produce a modiﬁed executable containing

the modiﬁed Library. (It is understood that the user who changes the contents of

deﬁnitions ﬁles in the Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the

application to use the modiﬁed deﬁnitions.)

b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable

mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a copy of the library already present on

the user's computer system, rather than copying library functions into the

executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modiﬁed version of the library, if

the user installs one, as long as the modiﬁed version is interface-compatible with

the version that the work was made with.

c) Accompany the work with a written oﬀer, valid for at least three years, to give

the same user the materials speciﬁed in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no

more than the cost of performing this distribution.

d) If distribution of the work is made by oﬀering access to copy from a designated

place, oﬀer equivalent access to copy the above speciﬁed materials from the same

place.

e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or that you

have already sent this user a copy.

For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the Library" must

include any data and utility programs needed for reproducing the executable

from it. However, as a special exception, the materials to be distributed need not

include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with

the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on

which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the

executable.

It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of other

proprietary libraries that do not normally accompany the operating system. Such

a contradiction means you cannot use both them and the Library together in an

executable that you distribute.

7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-side

in a single library together with other library facilities not covered by this License,

and distribute such a combined library, provided that the separate distribution of

the work based on the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise

permitted, and provided that you do these two things:

a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the

Library, uncombined with any other library facilities. This must be distributed

under the terms of the Sections above.

b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part of it is a

work based on the Library, and explaining where to ﬁnd the accompanying

uncombined form of the same work.

8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library except

as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,

sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and will automatically

terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received

copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses

terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it.

However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Library or

its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this

License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on

the Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms

and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Library or works based

on it.

10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the Library), the

recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy,

distribute, link with or modify the Library subject to these terms and conditions.

You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the

rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third

parties with this License.

11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement

or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on

you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the

conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this

License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations

under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence

you may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent license would not

permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those who receive copies

directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and

this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular

circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, and the section as a

whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other

property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the

sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system

which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made

generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that

system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the

author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any

other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a

consequence of the rest of this License.

12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain countries

either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who

places the Library under this License may add an explicit geographical

distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted

only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License

incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.

13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the

Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar

in spirit to the present version, but may diﬀer in detail to address new problems or

concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library speciﬁes a

version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have

the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any

later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not

specify a license version number, you may choose any version ever published by

the Free Software Foundation.

14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs whose

distribution conditions are incompatible with these, write to the author to ask for

permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation,

write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.

Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all

derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of

software generally.

NO WARRANTY

15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY

FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN

OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER

PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER

EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED

WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE LIBRARY IS

WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF

ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN

WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY

MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO

YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR

CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE

LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING

RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A

FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF

SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF

SUCH DAMAGES.

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries

If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to

the public, we recommend making it free software that everyone can redistribute

alternatively, under the terms of the ordinary General Public License).

To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is safest to

attach them to the start of each source ﬁle to most eﬀectively convey the

GPS

BC2400M and RB2400M provided a rich GPS (Global Positioning System) function

when used with a compatible and certiﬁed GPS modem. The GPS is a receiver

which calculates its position by precisely timing the signals sent by GPS satellites

high above the Earth. Each satellite continually transmits messages that include:

The time the message was transmitted

Precise orbital information (the ephemeris)

The general system health and rough orbits of all GPS satellites (the almanac).

The receiver uses the messages it receives to determine the transit time of each

message and computes the distance to each satellite. These distances along with

the satellites' locations are used to compute the position of the receiver. The

BC2400M provides this position data in the KLM/KMZ format which is compatible

with Google.

Setup: controlling the GPS function and conﬁguration on BC2400M and RB2400M

may be done via both the Web based i3GUI or CLI commands. Please reference

the BC2400M / RB2400M CLI manual for all CLI commands. Following are the Web

based GUI instruction for conﬁguring the GPS.

The BC2400M and RB2400M support GPS on certiﬁed compatible modems only.

Please see the BC2400M and RB2400M compatibility chart at http://nexaira.com

/wireless-routers for the GPS certiﬁed compatible modems. Additionally, if a

modem is certiﬁed for GPS on the BC2400M and RB2400M, the GPS icon on the

GUI in the advanced section is displayed indicating GPS feature is available as

shown below.

Conﬁguraion Step 1: Select the GPS ICON and Selct Enable.

Conﬁguration Step 2: Select to access GPS data locally by checking Host KMZ on

Router GUI

This will allow the KMZ ﬁle to be stored on the router and accessed at the

http://ROUTER_IP/FILENAME.kmz where FILENAME is deﬁned as one of three

options:

WiFi MAC Address (which is the Default)

Router Host Name (Note; create a unique Router Hostname: located on the

Systems Page accessed from the Main GUI)

Custom Name

Conﬁguration Step 3: Allows selection of using a remote GPS sever to store and

utilize the location information. The GPS data will always be sent in a KMZ

compressed ﬁle format. To enable check send KMZ to Remote FTP Server.

Upon selecting Remote FTP GPS Sever three additional entry ﬁelds appear the

remote server information:

FTP Server IP Address

FTP Sever Username

FTP Password

Conﬁguration Step 4: allow for setting the sample interval and quantity which will

be stored and shipped in each KMZ ﬁle of information. This allows for longer time

buﬀering the GPS data for situations where the device may be out cellular service

yet still powered on and receiving GPS data.

Frequency is drop down box allows for sample storage every 10 seconds to once

an hour.

Accuracy setting 10 to 1000 meters will drive the GPS chipset to improve location

accuracy at the expense of delay and fewer samples.

KML Samples in a drop down box sets the maximum number of sample stored

and sent in each ﬁle.

Please note: the KMZ ﬁle storage is limited to 720 samples so as to not burden

the network when the GPS data sent to the FTP GPS server. However, at a

sample an hour that would provide about 30 days of GPS location data storage

given power remained on the device. This would maintain GPS data during

normal or extended cellular outages.

Conﬁguration Step 5: Provides KML identities to the GPS Data

KML Name well be used to identify the Name TAG of the ﬁle

KML Description will be used to identify the Description Tag of the KML ﬁle

Conﬁguration of the GPS modem is complete.
