2. CONFIGURING TW-3G Flash-OFDM

2.1. Installation Considerations

TW-3G Flash-OFDM Router allows you access your network using a wireless
connection, from virtually anywhere within its operating range. Keep in
mind however, that the number, thickness, and location of walls, ceilings,
or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit this
range.
Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials used, and
background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business.

To maximize your wireless range, please follow these guidelines:

1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the TW-3G Flash-OFDM
Router and other network devices to a minimum. Each wall or ceiling can
reduce the TW-3G Flash-OFDM Router’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30
meters).

Note: The same considerations apply to your broadband EVDO connection.

2. Keep your product aware from electrical devices (such as microwaves, air
conditioners, and televisions) that emit large quantities of RFI (Radio
Frequency Interference).

2.2 Installation Instructions

Connect the Wireless Router to Your Network
Note: DO NOT connect TW-3G Flash-OFDM Router to power before

performing the installation steps below.

1. Attach the antenna

Screw the antenna in a clockwise direction to the back panel of the
unit. Once secured, position the antenna upward at its connecting
joint. This will ensure optimal reception.

2. Connect a compatible Type II 3G cards or USB modem with service to
the TW-3G Flash-OFDM Router in one of the following ways:

- Insert your wireless Type II 3G card (either 16-bit or 32-bit ) into

the WAN PCMCIA Card Slot or you can plug your USB modem into
the USB interface.

3. Insert the Ethernet patch cable into LAN Port on the back panel of
the TW-3G Flash-OFDM Router, and an available Ethernet port on the
network adapter in the computer you will use to configure the unit.

4. Connect the power adapter to the receptor on the back panel of your
TW-3G Flash-OFDM Router. Then plug the other end of the power
adapter into a wall outlet or power strip.

The Power LED will turn ON to indicate power has been applied.
Other LEDs will flash ON and OFF as the TW-3G Flash-OFDM Router
performs initialization and Internet connection processes. This will
take a few minutes. When complete, the following LEDs will
illuminate green: M1, WAN, LAN, and WiFi
