WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire or shock hazard, do not expose
the TV to rain or moisture.
This symbol is intended to alert the user to
the presence of uninsulated “dangerous
voltage” within the product’s enclosure
that may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock to
persons.
This symbol is intended to alert the user to
the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.
This equipment must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:
The available scientific evidence does not show that any
health problems are associated with using low power
wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these
low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low
power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio
frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while
being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health
effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that
does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse
health effects. Many studies of low level RF exposures
have not found any biological effects. Some studies have
suggested that some biological effects might occur, but
such findings have not been confirmed by additional
research. The LF-X5 has been tested and found to comply
with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
guidelines on radio frequency energy (RF) exposures.
The maximum SAR levels tested for the LF-X5 has been
show to be 1.31 W/kg at Body.
* This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
* When using the unit with 802.11a (5GHz), use in doors.
CAUTION
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly
replaced.
Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1)This device may not cause harmful interference,
and
(2)this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation.

NOTIFICATION
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15
of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses,
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference with radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician
for help.
FCC WARNING
You are cautioned that any changes or modifications not
expressly approved in this manual could void your
authority to operate this equipment.

Connecting to the Internet
This section offers examples and explanations of several common methods for connecting to the
Internet. Because the best connection method for you will depend on the Internet service provider and
connection devices you use, check with your Internet service provider or network administrator for more
information.
Connecting by LAN cable
Using a LAN cable (not supplied), connect the LAN port on the unit to your cable modem, ADSL
modem, or dial-up router.
Connect to the Ethernet port in the wall if you live in an Internet-ready residential complex.
Caution
• LAN cables come in two kinds: straight-wired and
cross-wired. The type of cable you should use
depends on what kind of cable modem or ADSL
modem you have. See the user’s manual for your
modem for more information.
• For details on setting up the connection, cross-refer
to the user’s manual for your cable modem or ADSL
modem. If you are unclear on some point regarding
your modem, contact your cable television company,
ADSL network administrator, or Internet service
provider.

In addition to “ETHER,” the Internet port on some
cable and ADSL modems may also be marked
“10Base-T,” “LAN,” “ENET,” etc.

Connecting several devices to a modem with a router
Caution
• Depending on your Internet service contract, you
may not be able to connect multiple devices, such as
several computers and an Airboard. Check with your
cable television company, ADSL network
administrator, or Internet service provider.
• To determine what kind of LAN cable to use, see the
user’s manual for your router, cable modem, or
ADSL modem.
• For details on setting up the connection, cross-refer
to the user’s manual for your router, cable modem, or
ADSL modem.
Configuring router settings
• If the user’s manual for your router directs you to use a web browser (Internet Explorer or Netscape
Navigator) to access the router’s settings screen, input the router’s IP address in the Airboard’s Internet
address field to display the settings screen. See page 23 for more on how to input to the address field.
You must also configure network settings for the Airboard. See page 17 for more on how to configure
network settings.
• For more information on configuring router settings, refer to the user’s manual for your device.
• The settings for some routers cannot be configured from the Airboard’s Internet screen.
* What is a router?
A router is a piece of equipment that relays signals between networks.
Using a router allows several devices to share one Internet connection.

Configuring Network Settings
Configure your network settings according to the
documents provided by your Internet service
provider.
Before configuring network settings
Check that:
• The base station power is turned on.
• The base station and monitor have established a
wireless connection.
• The LAN cable is connected to the base station,
when connecting by LAN.
• The telephone cord is connected to the base
station, when connecting by analog phone line
(USB-PSTN modem adapter UNA-PSTN: not
supplied).
With this type of Internet connection a DHCP
server automatically assigns the “IP Address,”
“Subnet mask,” and “Default gateway.”
Depending on the DHCP server, “DNS” may also
be automatically assigned.

the Airboard web page, which is set as the
default homepage, appears.
If the default homepage is not displayed
and a connection error message appears
saying the Airboard is unable to connect
to the Internet server,
go on to step 3 and verify the automatic
connection (DHCP) settings.
3
Press [Settings] on the lower right of the
screen.
The [Settings] window appears.
