TRODUCTION

With the explosive growth of the Internet, accessing information and services at any time,

ht, has become a standard requirement for the modern family. The era of the standalone

ing. Networking technology is now commonplace and is often included in new computers.

Unicom’s Wireless Broadband Router combines Internet gateway functions with Wireless

LAN) and a Fast Ethernet switch. Designed for the small business and home, it eliminates th

a separate modem and ISP line for each computer while providing a ready connection for all

ed or wireless.

Broadband network access, such as DSL and Cable, is also gaining ground. Since multip

s would be impractical and expensive, there is a need to share one legal IP address over a

rnet connection to link the home with the Internet.

Using a shared Internet connection through Unicom’s Wireless Broadband Router can solv

work access costs. All linked computers can make full use of broadband capabilities over this d

Unicom’s Wireless Broadband Router not only comes equipped with a wide range of featur

also be installed and configured quickly and easily right out of the box. It supports a simple

a Network and Internet access sharing.

The Local Area Network (LAN) connects home computers while allowing any of the com ccess the Internet, share resources such as printers, or play online games—the basis of the ily computing lifestyle.

ny item is missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for replacement.

tup

setup of the Wireless Router can be properly performed using the following methods:

The power outlet should be within 1.82 meters (6 feet) of the Broadband Router. Visually inspect the DC power jack and make sure that it is fully secured to the power adapter. Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate ventilation around the Broa

Router. Do not place heavy objects on the Broadband Router. Fix the direction of the antennas. Try to place the Wireless Router in a position that can best

your wireless network. Normally, the higher you place the antenna, the better the performanc be. The antenna’s position enhances the receiving sensitivity.
