INTRODUCTION
Introduction
Your 3G15Wn – ADSL2+/3G Wireless N300 4-Port Modem Router
Congratulations on your purchase of a NetComm 3G15Wn – ADSL2+/3G Wireless N300 4-Port Modem Router. This product is a high-
performance ADSL2+ Modem Router combined with a 3G router that provides high-speed wireless N networking and Internet connectivity for your home, ofce or public space. The NetComm 3G15Wn gives you the option to plug directly into an ADSL service to deliver Internet to users or connect via 3G with its support for an external 3G USB Modem. The choice is yours. Both methods will allow you to share your
Internet connection amongst multiple users with either the 4 LAN ports for wired connections or via high-speed Wireless N.
The 3G15Wn also allows for a 3G Mobile Broadband connection provided by a 3G USB modem to act as a backup Internet connection to your xed line service, providing automatic Internet failover to 3G in the event that the ADSL service fails. Should you have access to both connection methods, the 3G15Wn will ensure you are “always on” which is vital to some individuals and business that perform Internet critical operations.
The USB port not only has the capability to support an external 3G USB Modem, but it is also able to be used for the purpose of print and
mass storage server. By simply plugging in a USB printer or a USB hard drive to the router, the functionality of these products will be able to be shared with everyone connected to the 3G15Wn.
The 3G15Wn features the latest standards of wireless security, with wireless security enabled by default on each router. An advanced
rewall and VPN pass-through functionality allows for maximum security and caters for the encrypted Point-to-Point communications from connected computers through the 3G15Wn to a VPN Server.
The Port Forwarding and UPnP functionality provided by the 3G15Wn make it easier for today’s Internet users to setup and congure the various Network Port Rules needed by Internet applications such as On-Line Gaming, Peer-To-Peer le sharing and Instant Messaging services

PLACEMENT
Placement
Placement of your 3G15Wn
When Connecting With 3G
Just like your mobile phone, a 3G USB Modem’s location will affect its signal strength to the 3G Mobile Base Station (Cell Tower). The data speed achievable from a 3G USB modem is relative to this signal strength, which is affected by many environmental factors. Please keep in mind that the 3G USB Modem will need adequate signal strength in order to provide Internet connectivity whilst choosing a location to
place your 3G15Wn – ADSL2+/3G Wireless N300 4-Port Modem Router.
Similarly to the 3G USB Modem, the wireless connection between the Router and your Wi-Fi devices will be stronger the closer your connected devices are to your Router. Your wireless connection and performance will degrade as the distance between your Router and connected devices increases. This may or may not be directly noticeable, and is greatly affected by the individual installation environment.
If you have concerns about your network’s performance that might be related to range or obstruction factors, try moving the computer to a position between three to ve meters from the Router in order to see if distance is the problem. If difculties persist even at close range,
please contact NetComm Technical Support.
Note: While some of the items listed below can affect network performance, they will not prohibit your wireless network from functioning; if you are concerned that your network is not operating at its maximum effectiveness, this checklist may help.
Router placement
Place your Router as close as possible to the centre of your wireless network devices. To achieve the best wireless network coverage for your “wireless clients” (i.e., computers with built in or USB Wireless Adapters, Laptops with Built-in Wireless, Wireless PDA / iPhone, etc):
Ensure that your Router’s antennas are parallel to each other, and are positioned vertically (toward the ceiling). If your Router itself
is positioned vertically, point the antennas in an upward direction as much as possible.
In multi-storey homes, place the Router on a oor that is as close to the centre of the home as possible. This may mean placing
the Router on an upper oor.
Try not to place the Router near a cordless telephone that operates at the same radio frequency as the 3G15Wn (2.4GHz).
Avoid obstacles and interference
Avoid placing your Router near devices that may emit radio “noise,” such as microwave ovens. Dense objects that can inhibit wireless
communication include:
Refrigerators
Washers and/or dryers
Metal cabinets
Large aquariums
Metallic-based, UV-tinted windows
If your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, make sure that objects such as these are not blocking the signal’s path (between your devices and Router).
Cordless phones
If the performance of your wireless network is impaired after considering the above issues, and you have a cordless phone:
Try moving cordless phones away from your Router and your wireless-enabled computers.
Unplug and remove the battery from any cordless phone that operates on the 2.4GHz band (check manufacturer’s information). If
this xes the problem, your phone may be interfering with the Wi-Fi Router.
If your phone supports channel selection, change the channel on the phone to the farthest channel from your wireless network.
For example, change the phone to channel 1 and move your Router to channel 11. See your phones user manual for detailed
instructions.
If necessary, consider switching to a 900MHz or 5GHz cordless phone.
ADSL2+/3G Wireless N300 4-Port Modem Router YML15WN 8 www.netcomm.com.au
NetComm Gateway Series - ADSL2+/3G Wireless N300 4-Port Modem Router
Choose the “quietest” channel for your wireless network
In locations where homes or ofces are close together, such as apartment buildings or ofce complexes, there may be wireless networks nearby that can conict with your wireless network.
Use the Site Survey capabilities found in the Wireless Utility of your wireless adapter to locate any other wireless networks that are available (see your wireless adapter’s user manual), and switch your Router and computers to a channel as far away from other networks as
possible.
Experiment with more than one of the available channels, in order to nd the clearest connection and avoid interference from
neighbouring cordless phones or other wireless devices.
For NetComm wireless networking products, use the detailed Site Survey and wireless channel information included with your
wireless network card. See your network card’s user guide for more information.
These guidelines should allow you to cover the maximum possible area with your Router. Should you need to cover an even wider area, you should consider looking at building a hybrid network by combining your wireless network with a HomePlug Network. See the NetComm
website for more details on HomePlug products

Minimum system requirements
Different aspects of the 3G15Wn have different requirements, so let’s look at them in turn. We’ll start with your computer, which ought to match the following requirements if you are to enjoy the benets of a high-speed ADSL connection and use of 3G and Wireless Networking.
PC Requirements:
Any computer running Windows 98/2000/Me/XP/Vista/7 or Macintosh OSX
Ethernet or Wireless Network card
CD-ROM drive
Web browser e.g.
• Internet Explorer 5.1 (or better)
• Netscape Navigator
• Mozilla FireFox 1.0.4 (or better)
ADSL Requirement:
ADSL broadband connection to an ISP (Internet Service Provider)
ADSL In-line Splitter/Filter (Please refer to “Do I need a micro lter?” for more information)
Note: Connection at ADSL2 or 2+ rates depends on the service offered by your ISP; the device will operate at standard ADSL rates in the absence of the 2 or 2+ service.
3G Requirement:
Note: Subject to terms and conditions from your 3G Mobile Broadband Service Provider.
Wireless Computer/Device Requirements
Consult your ISP for details.
Compatible 3G USB Modem with Active SIM/Data Service if you want to use 3G Broadband service.
Computer/device with a working 802.11b, 802.11g or 802.11n wireless adapter.
Do I need a micro lter?
Micro lters are used to prevent interference between phones and fax machines, and your ADSL service. If your ADSL-enabled phone line is being used with any equipment other than your ADSL Modem then you will need to use one Micro lter for each phone device in use. Telephones and/or facsimiles in other rooms that are using the same line will also require Microlters. A suitable Microlter can be purchased from NetComm or your Service Provider, if required.
