Introduction
Obstacles during Wireless Connection:
The radio wave range may decrease depending on the surrounding environment or
existence of obstacles. If obstacles such as the following are placed between the base unit
and the handset (or a wireless device), radio waves will weaken.
Therefore, even if the distance between the base unit and the handset (or the wireless
device) is short, noise may be heard.
L A metallic door or shutter
L A wall with an insulation material that contains aluminum foil
L A wall made of tin
L A wall made of concrete, stone or brick

If you install the base unit with your existing router or modem with a built-in router, the base
unit should be set to AP (Bridge) mode. Select [AP (Bridge)] for your connection mode in
Initialization Setup (page 39). In AP (Bridge) mode, the base unit connects wireless
devices to one another and to the LAN, and allows wireless devices to use a DHCP server
on the LAN. In most cases, routers are equipped with the function as the DHCP server.

Setting up the base unit for the first time (Initialization
Setup)
For security purpose and enabling the Internet connection, it is necessary to set up the
base unit at the very first time. You can log in the base unit and configure the unit’s settings
using the Web browser on the computer you connected to the base unit’s “LAN” port.
Important:
L Required Web browser:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later for Windows
Mozilla Firefox 1.5 or later for Windows
L You may need to change the appropriate settings of your computer (page 206).
When you access to the base unit for the first time or after resetting the base unit to factory
default (page 189 and 204), you must go through Initialization Setup.
First you must set the user name and the password. (Remember your user name and
password in order to access the base unit again.) After that you need to configure the
Internet connection settings.
The base unit has a Mode selector (page 203) to allow users to switch its Internet
connection settings between the HOME mode and the HOTEL mode simply.
The base unit can contain up to 4 Internet connection setting profiles and 2 among those
4 setting profiles can be assigned to the mode selector positions which are HOME mode
and HOTEL mode.
For example, a setting profile of AP (Bridge) connection mode for the HOME mode and an
another setting profile of DHCP connection type for the HOTEL mode.
You are going to set up those profiles for HOME and/or HOTEL mode settings through the
initialization setup shown in the following pages.
