1. INTRODUCTION
3G networks
New research in the field of telecommunications has led to the extension of the range of services provided to the users, especially in the mobile communications networks. Today, 3G mobile networks dominate the world market.
The WMOCEAN Group is promoting the advanced facilities provided by the CDMA or UMTS wireless network, by manufacturing several ranges of products that including SPEEDY+ HSDPA.
These 3G wireless devices are new electronic equipments, of compact size, which use an updated design and are easy to mount and install. The economic benefits of WMOCEAN user network interfaces are considerable. By using these services you can perform several activities at the same time, such as data transmission, Internet connection, voice call, checking of geographical coordinates by GPS.
The high data transfer speed specific to the third generation communications network leads to an increased efficiency of information transmission, while the real time access to data and information means important savings of time and money.
UMTS, Universal Mobile Telecommunications Service, part of the IMT-2000 initiative, is a 3G standard supporting a theoretical data throughput of up to 2 Mbps. The UMTS system maintains compatibility with widely used GSM/GPRS networks, but assures higher quality and faster data transfer, thereby enabling the development and better use of services and contents, both already developed and new ones. UMTS is based upon wideband CDMA (WCDMA) technology. CDMA digitally encoded technology ensures connections with exceptional security. CDMA virtually eliminates cloning and other types of fraud because of the 4.4 trillion codes used, while the spread spectrum signal provides the greatest coverage in the wireless industry. CDMA networks are built with standard IP packet data protocols.
The UMTS definition of 3G is 384 Kbps fully mobile and 2 Mbps low mobility/fixed wireless. Also, unlike competitive mobile broadband technologies, it supports simultaneous voice and data transfer.
HSDPA
HSDPA is the first step of WCDMA Evolved. In turn, WCDMA Evolved represents a natural and fully standardized evolution of WCDMA, with the introduction of High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA). This first step significance improve the available downlink peak data rate up to 14 Mbit/s and more than doubled a system’s data capacity within the current radio spectrum. It enables operators to create more advanced mobile broadband services such as Internet and corporate access combined with unprecedented data rates where audio, video and large files or attachments can be downloaded significantly faster than with classic UMTS technology. The second step of WCDMA Evolved will include features to enhance the uplink (HUSPA) together with improved coverage, higher data rates and even reduced uplink latency.
HSDPA is a packet based data service feature of the in WCDMA standard which provides a downlink with data transmission up to 8-10 Mbps (and 20 Mbps for MIMO systems) over a 5MHz bandwidth in WCDMA downlink. The high speeds of HSDPA is achieved through techniques including 16 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation, variable error coding, and incremental redundancy.
The initial deployments is limited to 1.8 Mbit/s, it must be followed by network upgrades and new devices capable of 3.6 Mbit/s. HSDPA is standardized by the 3GPP in UMTS Release 5.
Page 6
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 5
HSDPA ensures advantages such as:
-
Full backward compatibility with previous networks: UMTS/GPRS/GSM
-
Enhanced, improved wireless data services for the clients: shorter download times owing to higher bit rates together with faster response time
-
Increases the overall capacity of the system without needing supplementary frequency spectrum, so the costs for high speed mobile data services is reduced
-
Easy to implement, requires just a software upgrade of the existing WCDMA base stations.
The embedded modem of SPEEDY+ is a HSDPA/UMTS/GPRS/GSM multi-mode device. It measures in real-time the RF signal level strength of the mobile network and lets the user to freely choose the 2G/3G network. Thus it provides access rates up to the maximum possible for each network: 1.8Mbps on HSDPA, 384kbps on UMTS, and respectively 85.6kbps on the GPRS network.
This way you may talk, download files or surf the Web without cabled connections almost anywhere, at any time. When you are out of the coverage of high speed networks such as HSDPA/UMTS, you can still get services on the wireless Internet with alternative access via GPRS/GSM network in your area. The embedded multiband modem covers almost all of the frequency bands of the world!
WiFi
Wireless LANs are complementary extensions to existing wired LANs, offering complete mobility while maintaining continuous network connectivity to both corporate and home Intranets. PC users stay connected to the network anywhere throughout a building without being bound by Ethernet cables or other LAN wires. This is accomplished through the use of Access Point functionality of SPEEDY+ HSDPA. The WMOCEAN equipment with built-in Internet gateway capability allows your house or company to share an UMTS account or other broadband connection, working simultaneously from different rooms, without need for cables or wires. The embedded Access Point of the WMOCEAN Gateway complies with wireless standards IEEE 802.11g and 802.11b. The 802.11g is as extension to 802.11b (used in majority of wireless LANs today) that broadens 802.11b’s data rates to 54 Mbps within the 2.4 GHz frequency band using OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) technology.
In order to ensure a correct installation / configuration and a good operation of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment, the manufacturer strongly recommends you to study this manual before attempting operation.

3. What is SPEEDY+ HSDPA?
For wireless WAN connection, it uses an embedded radio modem for the HSDPA mobile network. Its 3G capabilities assure high speed Internet access up to 1,8 Mbps. This is fully broadband mobile Internet, at data rates many times greater than a dial-up connection or other networks. Still, if you are in an area where you have only UMTS or GPRS or even GSM coverage, you may use SPEEDY+ in conjunction with the respective networks.
The SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment is versatile advanced router for wireless broadband Internet access using 3G technology. At the same time, it is a voice and data interface between a single phone or a PBX exchange and GSM/GPRS/HSDPA mobile network.
As data router, SPEEDY+ achieves a direct connection, transparent for the user, between the local network (Ethernet and/or WiFi) and the HSDPA/GSM/GPRS/UMTS mobile communications network.
The parameters of the FXO and FXS interfaces are software programmable, by means of the web interface. This facility is very helpful when your phone exchange has only ISDN interfaces or there are no available analog trunks (all of them are used).You can make calls while browsing, performing uploads, streaming video, etc. Unlike other devices, SPEEDY+ has full simultaneous voice and data capabilities – you may perform at the same time high speed data transfer and voice calls.
As a voice interface, it allows wireless connection of the local subscribers and decreases the cost of fixed–to-mobile and mobile–to-fixed calls. SPEEDY+ achieves a direct contact between a trunk or a local subscriber extension of a PBX over the mobile network. This way the fixed-to-mobile calls are converted into mobile-to-mobile calls. Thus you will pay only the mobile-to-mobile cost. Since SPEEDY+ HSDPA features both FXO and FXS interfaces, it is highly versatile: you may connect it either to a trunk of the phone exchange or to a local extension of the same phone exchange.

WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 8
By using SPEEDY+ HSDPA, you are no longer dependent of a fixed connection, so you may connect your LAN network to the Internet even in remote areas where there are no fixed connections (phone line, cable, optical fiber, etc). Still, If you want, you can also use the WAN connection to interface with other Internet providers than the HSDPA network, such as DSL cable modems, other wireless broadband modems.
Our product is fully wireless, since it uses radio connections not only for LAN and WAN, but also for configuration via Web page.
With SPEEDY+ no cables at all are required, except for power!
All computers on the wired or wireless local network can access the Internet through the WMOCEAN HSDPA Router, using only a single external IP address.
SPEEDY+ HSDPA operates as a local server (router), since it provides access to an outside network and routes the packets in the local network. The structure of messages is transmitted using standard communications protocols (TCP/IP, PPP, etc). These messages are fully controlled and traceable.
You may easily change the operating parameters of SPEEDY+ to fit your needs by remote secure (https) access using a web browser. The configuration process is user – friendly. The changes you make can be stored in the non-volatile memory (Flash) of the device or saved as files on the hard disk drive.

4. INSTALLATION
In order to ensure the proper operation of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment you must
follow the set-up steps shown below:
• Establish the best location
• Mounting (Hardware installation)
• Identification of connectors
• Connecting the data cables
• Connecting the phone cables
• Configuring and installing the SIM card
• Connecting the external antennas for HSDPA and WiFi
• Setting the PIN or PUK code, if required
• Power up
4.1 Establishing the best location
In order to determine the best location for the WMOCEAN router please have in mind
these considerations:
• If you use wired connections, the length of the Ethernet cables that connects the
SPEEDY+ routers the network must not exceed 100 meters.
• SPEEDY+ HSDPA should be placed on a flat, sturdy surface located as far from the
ground as possible. A high location, on the wall or on top of a desk or a shelf is best
both for the HSDPA connection and for the Access Point. Also, SPEEDY+ should be
kept clear of obstructions and away from heat sources, direct sunlight and heavy-duty
electrical equipment.
• To ensure good coverage to all of the wireless mobile devices in your area SPEEDY+
HSDPA should be installed in a central place in the building. Normally the antennas
should be in vertical position, but if reflections occur, you may get better results by
changing their orientation.
• For power supply, use only the adapter shipped with SPEEDY+. The jacks of different power supplies may fit but the polarity, current, voltage or regulation factor may not be compatible.
• While the device is in operation, the antennas of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA unit should
be at least 30 centimeters away from any human being.

WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 11
4.2 Mounting (hardware installation)
The WMOCEAN SPEEDY+ HSDPA router may be mounted either horizontally, by
means simply placing it on a flat surface, or vertically on a wall (using the mounting kit).
Horizontal mounting
The surface must be level and strong enough to hold the weight of SPEEDY+ HSDPA together with its cables (power supply, wired LAN connections, telephone, USB etc). A desk, table or shelf is good place for the installation of SPEEDY+ .
Wall mounting
The equipment may also be mounted on a wall, by means of the kit included in the package.
It is recommended you use a pattern to secure the device to the wall. Also, you should use professional installation to reduce the risk of injury and damage.
For mounting SPEEDY+ HSDPA on a wall you should use the mounting kit (plastic dowels, woodscrews, etc) provided by WMOCEAN.
On the back there are two pairs of mounting holes, 160 mm apart. The two pairs are located 100 mm one from another, allowing you to fasten SPEEDY+ to the wall either connectors up or indicators up.
Perform the following steps:
- mark on the wall the position of a pair of holes, spaced at 160 mm apart
- drill the holes in the wall
- forcibly insert into the holes the plastic dowels
- thread the metallic woodscrews into the plastic dowels leaving the end to protrude outside for some 5 mm
- hang the case of SPEEDY+ HSDPA in the two metallic woodscrews and push it down a little to get it fixed
Figure 1 Mounting SPEEDY+ HSDPA on a wall
No matter if it is installed horizontally or vertically, the best location for SPEEDY+
HSDPA is in the middle of the place where you want to have wireless coverage. Installing SPEEDY+ on a shelf higher up, with no obstructions around, ensures the best performance, both for WiFi and for the HSDPA modem.
Take care to ensure adequate cooling of the SPEEDY+ terminal.

Page 14
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 13
4.4. Connecting the cables
To ensure a proper functioning of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA unit, you must make the
right cable connections, as described below.
Figure 3: Connecting the cables
For local network connection:
Use standard UTP network cables (CAT 5) fitted with RJ45 connectors at both ends. The cables can be either straight-through or crossover, since the switch of SPEEDY+ HSDPA is auto-crossover. One short length of RJ-45 cable is supplied with the WMOCEAN
SPEEDY+ Router. You may use either 10Base-T or 100Base-T connection, and both types of Ethernet connections maybe used on the same time.
The network cables are to be inserted with one end into the RJ-45 sockets of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment labeled LAN1 to LAN4. The opposite end of the UTP cable can be inserted directly into PCs or in switches or hubs. The corresponding LED indicators of the front panel should light up, showing physical connection and data traffic on the respective Ethernet interface.
Page 15
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 14
For WAN connection:
Plug one end of the cable into the RJ45 port labeled “ WAN” on the rear of the WMOCEAN SPEEDY+ HSDPA and the other end into the Ethernet port of the ADSL or Cable modem.
For Wireless connection:
When a wireless device enters in the coverage area of SPEEDY+ , it will be automatically connected. For settings, refer to the User manual of your wireless adapter for
associating with the SPEEDY+ HSDPA router. The default SSID of the WMOCEAN UMTS router is “SPEEDY+ HSDPA”, encryption is disabled and open system authentication is used. You can modify these default settings as you wish.
For USB connection:
Plug the USB cable of the device into one of the USB­A slots of the SPEEDY+ equipment. Currently it supports USB webcams that are compatible with PWC Linux drivers. For details see http://www.saillard.org/linux/pwc/. Further development will allow also connection of various USB devices or peripherals, such as printers, scanners, HDD or Flash card readers for extended storage.
Page 16
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 15
4.5. Connecting the phone cables:
You may use one of the phone interfaces, either FXS or FXO. For connection, SPEEDY+ HSDPA is shipped with a flat telephone cable, wired on both side with male RJ11 connectors.
Connecting the telephone cable for FxS interface
Connect the telephone cable with one of the end to the FXS connector of SPEEDY+ and the other end to an analog trunk of PBX.
Should the phone exchange have terminal trunks not equipped with RJ11 connectors, you must connect the two middle wires of telephone cable directly to internal connector of the PBX exchange.
Alternately, you may connect the telephone cable with one of the end to the FXS interface of SPEEDY+ HSDPA and the opposite end directly to a standard (fixed) phone. In this case you won’t have the routing facilities of the phone exchange, but you still be able to make voice calls while transferring files or browsing the Internet.
Note: SPEEDY+ HSDPA features analog phone interfaces, so it must not be connected to an ISDN interface (digital trunk) of PBX exchange. For connection to an ISDN
exchange you should use wireless equipment specially designed for ISDN phones. Improper installation of SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment might lead to damage of SPEEDY+ or PBX. (If you join a local subscriber line of PBX exchange to the FXS connector of SPEEDY+ then both equipment will generate current into the connection cable, so the SPEEDY+ router and PBX the exchange may be damaged).
Page 17
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 16
Connecting the telephone cable for FXO interface
If you use the FXO interface of SPEEDY+ HSDPA, connect the phone cable with one of the end to the FxO connector of the equipment, and the other end to a line interface (local extension) of your PBX. Take care NOT to connect the FXO interface to a trunk (outgoing line) of the PBX. Also, the FXO interface of SPEEDY+ must be properly configured (use the Web interface to change the settings).
Figure 4: Connecting the telephone cable for FXO interface
Note: In this case, if no restrictions exist for subscriber access rights assigned for extension where SPEEDY+ HSDPA was installed, any caller from fixed network who rings to the SPEEDY+ number can obtain the access to outgoing trunks. So his calls will be billed to the owner of the PBX.
For avoiding this you have the following solutions.
- either configure the phone exchange to reject the outgoing calls on the extension where SPEEDY+ HSDPA interface is connected
- or set the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment so that when it receives a call from mobile network, it will automatically direct the call to a specified extension (generally the operator’s desk)
Page 18
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 17
For power supply:
To power the SPEEDY+ HSDPA unit, just insert the jack of the power supply adapter
into the supply connector. Do not yet plug the adapter into the 230V
A.C.
mains outlet on the wall. The special adapter from WMOCEAN, which is part of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA package, supplies the voltage required to power the equipment (12V
D.C
.) It is an external power supply
adapter. Note: The adapter is the disconnection device, the socket-outlet shall be installed near the
equipment and shall be easily accessible”.
Figure 5: Connecting the power supply
Warning !
Use only the power supply adapter shipped in the equipment package. Using of
other kinds of power supplies may cause damage to the equipment.
To avoid accidents or damage to the equipment, follow the steps described
earlier. First, connect the antennas, and then the power supply adapter.
You should avoid connecting or removing the antennas while the SPEEDY+
HSDPA equipment is powered.
4.6. Configuring and installing the SIM card
In order for the SPEEDY+ HSDPA router to work, it must have a valid SIM card with subscription to the GSM/GPRS/UMTS/HSDPA operator where you want to connect to.
Configuring the SIM card
The SIM card that is used must be active. The SIM card must be configured before it is inserted into the SPEEDY+ HSDPA slot. For configuring the SIM card you may use an ordinary GSM cellphone.
The required configurations are:
PIN CODE REQUEST – if you disable (from the menu of the mobile phone) PIN CODE REQUEST security option, then you will not be asked to enter it. Alternatively, the PIN code can be enabled and you may enter it form the Web page used for configuration. In this case, take care to enter the correct PIN code before inserting the SIM card, to avoid PUK locking!
Disable GSM services – GSM operators offers you different supplementary services for calls. When you use the SPEEDY+ HSDPA interface is recommended that these options to be disable, because they are available only with additional costs.

Inserting the SIM card
The SIM card must be inserted into the special slot of the WMOCEAN SPEEDY+ equipment.
The slot for SIM cards is located on the rear panel (the one with the connectors), in the middle, as shown in the next image.
For inserting or extracting the SIM card use the mobile holder (removable tray) for the SIM card.
Push the little yellow button to activate the holder.
Handle with care when inserting or extracting SIM card.
! When inserting or changing the SIM card, the equipment must be powered off.
For inserting the SIM card follow the next steps:
1. Push the little yellow button to eject the SIM carrier.
Note: Because its small dimensions, you can push the yellow button using an object that has hard edge, such as a screwdriver or a key.
2. Pull out the holder (tray)
3. Insert the SIM card into the holder, with the cut (notched) corner orientated upwards and the side with contacts toward you
4. Insert the holder with the SIM card back into the slot and push to close. Be careful not to drop the SIM out of the tray, since the holder must be inserted face downwards.
Note: The operation described here must be performed also when you want to replace the existing SIM card with a new SIM.

4.7. Connecting the external antennas
To ensure a good quality of transmission and reduce radio interference use the antennas shipped in the SPEEDY+ package. These antennas are for the respective frequency bands (multiband for GSM/GPRS/UMTS/HSDPA network and 2,4 GHz for WiFi). The antennas must be connected to SPEEDY+ HSDPA via the respective RF circular connectors on the back panel of the case. The cable for HSDPA antenna must be threaded into the circular connector of SPEEDY+ HSDPA labeled “Mobile”, while the stick antenna for WiFi into the other RF connector (to the right) as shown in the following drawing. Note that the connector for the Mobile network is female, while the one for WiFi is male (with protruding pin) so there is no risk of inserting the incorrect antenna.
Figure 6: Antenna attachment
If your site has low level of 3G signal, it may not be possible to use the full HSDPA technology without a special, high gain antenna. You should get such an antenna and install it in a higher position (the roof of the building), directed towards the base station of the mobile network carrier, in order to get best results.
Warning! Don’t use excessive force. Make sure the antennas are securely screwed into the RF connectors, but do NOT use a spanner or screw key, which could damage the antenna connectors! Tighten the flange lightly, by hand.
The antennas have vertical polarization, they should be placed in vertical or horizontal position, depending of the local field condition. SPEEDY+ HSDPA package comprises a multiband antenna for GSM/GPRS/UMTS/HSDPA mobile network.
The antenna has a cable of 2,50 m length and a magnetic base, so it can be installed on any ferromagnetic surface.
! You should fasten the antenna on a safe (with great stability) and flat area, even one that is not magnetic.
The following table shows the main characteristics of the multi-band stick antennas with magnetic base (currently supplied with the SPEEDY+ HSDPA package).
Frequency bands GSM 890-960 MHz
PCN 1710-1880 MHz PCS 1850-1990 MHz
UMTS 1920-2170 MHz Dimensions 2 dBi Gain 2 dBi Polarization Vertical Height Total 73 mm
Active stick 43 mm

Base Magnetic, diameter 2,8cm Cable Type RG174, length 2,5 m End Connector Nipple, male
Warning! The antennas of the SPEEDY+ interface sends out RF energy so they should NOT be placed very close to people. Since the equipment transmits for longer periods of time, being used for data transmissions the radiation will be accordingly higher than for an ordinary UMTS mobile phone that used only infrequently, by a single person.
Notice:
The SPEEDY+ HSDPA unit and its antennas should be placed such as to be as far
as possible from appliances or office equipment that is sensitive to radio interference (microwave ovens, copiers, TV sets, PC displays, and multimedia systems). For best results, try to find for the HSDPA antenna a place of maximum signal reception.
In addition, the antenna must NOT be located near heavy-duty equipment that may
generate electromagnetic interferences, such as electric motors or heaters.
4.8. Power up
Power up SPEEDY+ HSDPA by inserting the adapter into the wall outlet.
4.7 Status indicators
SPEEDY+ HSDPA several optical indicator (green or red LED) that shows the status of the device. This indicator light up continuously or flash to show data traffic. In normal operation the LAN, WAN, WiFi or respectively NET indicators must be blinking. The LINE indicator shows the active status of the phone line.
Figure 7: LEDs location
NET – Green LED. Off indicates no mobile network connection, On = data connection active.
LINE – Red LED. Lights up to show the phone interface is in use. When it is ON, it indicates the phone line (FXS) or the junction (FXO) is engaged.
PWR – Green LED. Off = no power, On indicates that SPEEDY+ HSDPA is powered
WiFi – Green LED. Off = not in operation, On = wireless system ready, blinking indicates activity of the embedded 802.11 b/g Access Point
WAN – Green LED. Indicator for the WAN Ethernet connection. Off = no cable connected, On = physical connection to Ethernet network (an UTP cable was connected to the respective input), flashing = shows data traffic (send or receive) through that connector
LAN 1 … 4 – Green LED. Off = no cable connected, On = physical connection to
Ethernet network (an UTP cable was connected to the respective input), blinking = shows
data traffic (send
or receive) through that connector. Note that the four LAN indicators are
numbered in direct order, as to correspond to the LAN connectors on the opposite side.

5. CONFIGURATION
SPEEDY+ HSDPA can properly perform its functions of wireless high-speed router with the default settings. However, it can be easily configured to meet various usage
scenarios. “Configuring” or programming the equipment means adequate setting of all the
parameters. The embedded Linux firmware allows you to configure SPEEDY+ HSDPA without the need of additional software on the computer used for programming. You just need a web browser as configuration terminal. This means that SPEEDY+ HSDPA may be used on any computer platform and is not restricted to a certain operating system!
Using the web browser, the configuration can be performed remotely: the desktop PC
or notebook may be connected to the WMOCEAN Router either directly or through a hub and the connection can be wired (Ethernet) or wireless (WiFi). In this last case, no cables at
all are required to program SPEEDY+ HSDPA, except for power!
For this wireless connection your PC or notebook must have an IEEE 802.11g/b compatible device installed. This can be an Ethernet adapter, a PCMCIA card, an USB device, etc. Recent notebooks already come with embedded the 802.11g/b capability. You should also disable WEP (encryption) and set the SSID for your wireless LAN device to “default” or to the name used by SPEEDY+ .
Prior to using this HDSPA Gateway you should check the basic settings to guarantee it will work in your environment. When the IP Plug and play feature of SPEEDY+ is, you don’t need to bother with TCP/IP settings enabled, you may connect directly to configure the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment or to access the Internet through the wireless network.
5.1 Using the web interface
The default address of the webpage of SPEEDY+ device is 192.168.1.1. First, you should go to “Network Connections” on your computer and define a connection to be used for the SPEEDY+ HSDPA router.
You may name it “SPEEDY+ HSDPA”
.
Page 23
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 22
From the network adapters (network cards) of your computer, select the one which is connected to the SPEEDY+ equipment.
In this example, it is the network board type ”3Com OfficeConnect”.
Check the box “Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click the button “Properties” to configure your PC.
In “Internet Protocol Properties” you should check the boxes:
- “Obtain an IP address
automatically”
- and respectively “Obtain
DNS server address automatically”.
This way, you won’t have to worry anymore about your settings, SPEEDY+ will take care of providing you with IP addresss and DNS,
In the status bar at the bottom of the screen you should see the link icon blinking, and a message will show up: “SPEEDY+ HSDPA is now connected”
To configure the SPEEDY+ product using the web interface, just open your favorite web browser and type the default IP address as the URL: https://192.168.1.1/admin .
Note that SPEEDY+ uses a secure connection (https) so you may get several warning messages like this one:
Page 24
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 23
or similar warnings mentioning “Website Certified by an Unknown Authority”. You should click „Yes”, „OK” or „Accept” to go on.
Type “OK” to accept the certificate for the SPEEDY+ website. Other “Security Error” messages may warn you about “Domain Name Mismatch”, referring to the security certificate. Again click “OK” to continue. You may receive the warning “You have requested an encrypted page” or “You are about to view pages over a secure connection”.
This is normal, it shows that you are connected to SPEEDY+ over a secure, encrypted link.
The secure connections is confirmed by the “padlock” symbol that shows up in the status bar at the bottom of the screen, indicating a secure (encrypted) connection. SPEEDY+ uses 128-bit SSL encryption to prevent hackers from capturing passwords and sensitive data. The same security is used by banks and the military.
or
Internet Explorer shows the padlock icon only when everything on the entire webpage is encrypted. But even when the browser doesn't show a padlock, the "https://" address means your data is still encrypted If you entered the address 192.168.1.1 page and it asks you for authorization, type in the URL bar “admin” or click “Administration Pages” to go to the configuration page of SPEEDY+ HSDPA.
Page 25
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 24
Now you will be asked to enter a user name and a password to access the configuration page of WMOCEAN SPEEDY+ .
The default user name is admin and the password is 99admin11. Later, you may change this password using the web configuration page, as described in the paragraph about Password.
For security reasons, it is strongly recommended to change as soon as possible the default password with one of your own choice. Also, you should NOT mark the checkbox “Remember my password”.
If you type a different user name, or if enter an incorrect password more than three times in a row, you will get the error message:
“401 Unauthorized” ! Connect again and be careful to enter the correct
name and password.
Now the administration page for the WMOCEAN SPEEDY+ router should be shown on screen.
After the configuration page is loaded, you can change any setting and then click the Save button to save it in the current page and Commit button to make these changes permanent. The “committed” configuration changes are valid after the restarting of the equipment.
There are several sections (Menu items) on the configuration page of SPEEDY+ HSDPA, allowing you to modify the settings for:
- HOME: this home page for configurating the equipment.
Page 26
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 25
- LAN: settings for the wireless LAN (WiFi - embedded Access Point) and for the local wired (Ethernet) network
- WAN: parameters for Ethernet, PPP including AT commands, etc and Dynamic DNS
- ROUTING: routing, NAT (network address translation), firewall, etc.
- SYSTEM: Shows current status and performs operating system functions (update,
change of password, logs)
- SERVICES: Allows you to configure additional services (such as DDNS, NTP or webcam
- SIM: Shows info and change settings for the SIM card and HSDPA module, allows viewing, sending out and receiving SMS messages
- VOICE: configuration of the telephony interfaces (FXO or FXS)
The Menu bar is located to the left, and features the button Commit at its bottom. Above, after the WMOCEAN logo, you will see a “Location” indication, that reminds you where you are on the Web interface (in which of the configuration pages).
Page 27
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 26
5.2 LAN
This group features three pages of settings related to the local wireless or wired network (for IP, for the embedded WiFi access point and respectively for the DHCP server):
5.2.1. IP Settings
Settings for the LAN IP of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA router are the standard ones: IP Address and Netmask. These settings control how the WMOCEAN equipment connects into your local wired (Ethernet) computer network. The default value of the address is 192.168.1.1 and the netmask is the standard one,
255.255.255.0. The network mask allows limiting the accessibility domain for the address above. You may change these default settings, if the configuration of your network requires this. Use the “Save” button to save the settings, then “Commit” (down on the column to the left of the screen) to make permanent the IP settings.
Usually the IP address allocated for SPEEDY+ HSDPA on the LAN side is a non-routable (internal) address. If you change this IP address, you will need to reload the configuration page by typing the new IP address in your browser, if not redirected automatically.
Page 28
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 27
5.2.2. WiFi Settings
The settings for the wireless access point These control the 802.11b/g embedded Access Point (base station) of SPEEDY+ HSDPA.
There are several zones (groups of WiFi related settings) which are described further on:
Wireless access: you may enable or disable the wireless access to SPEEDY+ HSDPA. ESSID: name of the Wireless LAN.
ESSID is a unique name, of length up to 32 keyboard characters, which identifies the embedded wireless Access Point of SPEEDY+ in the wireless LAN. All devices in the wireless network must have the same ESSID. You should type in a descriptive name such as “HomeNetwokA” or “InternetCaffeDoris” to replace the default one (which is “SPEEDY+ HSDPA”). This name allows one wireless network to be clearly distinguishable from another.
Page 29
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 28
It ensures that your SPEEDY+ wireless router can be accessed only by those access points and wireless devices that have configured the same ESSID as you.
ESSID Visibility: Shows or hides the ID, so makes your wireless LAN router invisible to others. Since the access point of SPEEDY+ is no longer visible, this will hinder potential hackers from finding out that a WLAN network is active. Only people who know the ESSID will be able to access the wireless LAN of SPEEDY+ HSDPA. By default, the ESSID is visible, meaning is it is broadcast to all WiFi devices that operate in the near of SPEEDY+ . This way the mobile wireless users around SPEEDY+ HSDPA will see your access point and will be able to join (the WMOCEAN wireless router will show up in site surveys performed by wireless mobile clients).
Warning: the hiding of the ESSID is not a foolproof solution for wireless security, hackers may actively scan for wireless data packets and unauthorized persons can join the network even if the ID is not broadcasted. Thus you must rely on stronger protection measures, such as WEP and WPA.
Operating Mode:
Defines the mode of operation of the embedded 802.11b/g wireless AP. You may select Access Point (default), Station or Bridge. In a wireless data network, an Access Point sends and receives signals to any number of other, local wireless devices (client stations). In general Bridging means the connection between two parts of a network where it isn't necessary or desirable for every computer on the network to send its traffic to every other computer. An AP may act as a bridge between two segments of the wireless network.
Access Point – standard mode of operation, SPEEDY+ acts as a base station for several WiFi clients. Station – SPEEDY+ acts as a WiFi client, it connects to an existing Access Point. For instance, you have a company that uses 2-3 floors in a building. You have several SPEEDY+ devices, each with its own wired local network, for a room or a whole floor. But you don’t want to run cables between offices or different floors! Then you install an AP in a central location, and all the SPEEDY+ devices in the building wirelessly connect to that AP. Bridge – performs as a transparent bridge between two remote Access Points. The most obvious application is acting as a WiFi repeater located midway between two APs that are more than 300 m distant and can’t connect directly. Of course, the “bridge” SPEEDY+ doesn’t have any more wireless clients, but it may interconnect the remote wired or WiFi clients at the opposing ends. Also, the centrally located SPEEDY+ can provide Internet access (via GPRS/UMTS/HSDPA) to the two remote APs.
Connection Mode: It has two options, Infrastructure and Ad-Hoc. Infrastructure: the standard mode of operation, which you’ll most likely use. In this mode one or several WiFi clients connect to an AP (respectively that of SPEEDY+ HSDPA) which acts as server. Ad-Hoc: two wireless clients interconnect directly, without the need for an AP. In this mode of connection, SPEEDY+ links directly to a computer with WiFi or an AP that is set to work in Ad-Hoc mode. This setting is related to the previous one - usually, the “Ad-Hoc” connection is used when Operating Mode is set to “Station”.
Characteristics of the modes:
Page 30
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 29
The “Ad Hoc” Mode is easier to set up, thus recommended for a very small or temporary network. The mode “Infrastructure” may be a little more difficult to configure, but takes full advantage of the high power of a WiFi access point to cover wide areas.
The “Ad Hoc” Mode has other disadvantages:
- the network topology in Ad Hoc Mode changes all the time because the mobile users move around, thus some system resources are taken just to maintain connectivity;
- when Ad Hoc network layout changes, data rates and coverage (useful range) will change also, sometimes in unanticipated ways;
- if you have a wireless network with many computers working in Ad Hoc mode, the amount of interference for all computers will go up, since each adapter is trying to use the same radio channel;
- in Ad Hoc mode, if your computer is not directly in range, then chains of computers will connect to transfer your data. The routines for automatic network configuration may send your data through several computers, thus causing significant network delays. On the other hand, you do not have control over the path your data takes.
The embedded AP of SPEEDY+ HSDPA is fully configurable, you may select to operate it as Access Point, bridge or station, and to work in Ad Hoc or infrastructure mode, depending upon the actual requirements of your wireless network.
Radio Channel: Selects the WiFi channel in the 2400 MHz band.
In this band there are several channels, spaced 5 MHz apart. You may leave it on “Auto” (default setting) and the AP will automatically select the radio channel with the strongest signal, or you can specify a certain channel, for instance no 9, which uses the frequency of 2552 MHz. In order to be able to communicate, all devices in your WiFi network must broadcast on the same channel. It is recommended that you don’t change this setting, unless you experience interference with other devices operating in the same frequency band. If several Access Points are operating at the same location and they overlap, you must use different channels in order to reduce interference. Of course, the WiFi devices connected to the AP must be set on the same channel that you selected for SPEEDY+ HSDPA.
WEP Security: Enables or disables WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encryption. WEP encryption is used to protect data transmitted from one end point to another. WEP is a basic encryption method and it was designed to provide a level of privacy equivalent to an unsecured wired LAN, so you should not rely only on WEP for protection. The encryption level (64-bit or 128-bit) is given by the length of the WEP Key you enter. If you enable WEP, these fields become active as shown here: WEP Key 1 … 4: The data keys used for encryption/decryption. There are up to four keys, the values for the keys must be set the same on the Access Point of SPEEDY+ and on the wireless stations connected to it. Enter the password in the “Key1” space. When you want to use 64-bit WEP, the password must have 5 characters. If you use 128-bit WEP encryption the password must contain 10 characters.
WEP Key Index: shows which of the keys is active. You may have a list of pre-defined keys, and the system administrator periodically changes the active key (the first week Key 3, the
Page 31
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 30
next week Key 4, and so on). The selected WEP key is automatically published to the clients of the Access Point.
WPA sec: WPA security Wi-Fi Protected Access, a Wi-Fi standard designed to improve the security features of WEP. It features improved data encryption through the temporal key integrity protocol (TKIP) and user authentication, which is generally missing in WEP, through the extensible authentication protocol (EAP). This EAP is built on a secure public-key encryption system to ensure that only authorized network users can access the WiFi network. You can select to Disable the WPA security, or to use PSK or PSK2 keys. PSK means "pre-shared keys": the keys are public, every user is given the same passphrase.
The pre-shared key version is called WPA-Personal or WPA2-Personal, while the more secure version using 802.1X server authentication is WPA-Enterprise or WPA2-Enterprise.
In this case you must enter the respective key in the “WPA Key” field, the select the type of cryptography to be used for WPA: You can select for cryptography TKIP, AES or both.
TKIP - Temporal Key Integrity Protocol is an enhanced data encryption technology that provides important data encryption enhancements, including a per-packet key­mixing function, a message integrity check (MIC), an extended initialization vector (IV) with sequencing rules, and a re-keying mechanism.
AES - Advanced Encryption Standard, which is an encryption algorithm highly recommended to ensure privacy of commercial transactions in the private sector. It was initially used by U.S for securing sensitive but unclassified material. AES cryptography is based on the Rijndael algorithm created by Belgian cryptographers Rijmen Vincent and Daemen Joan.
MAC Security
Controls access to the WiFi network based upon MACs (physical addresses, 12-digit code assigned to a unique hardwvare device) of the client devices. By default it is Disabled, if you enable it, you may select Allow or Deny. You can enter up to five MAC addresses to be filtered by this kind of physical ID security.
Allow: only the WiFi adapters (computers) with the respective MAC addresses will be allowed to join the local wireless network. You should enter the physical addresses of the wireless adapters of the authorized users, and they will be the only ones that are allowed to access the radio network. Other users, with different MACs, will not be permitted to join the network.
Deny: the adapters with the MAC addresses you have enter will be denied access to the WiFi network. This option is useful when you suspect that one or several of the local computers are
Page 32
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 31
infected by a virus or worm: until solving the problem, the respective computer(s) will be quarantined, they will not be allowed access to the WiFi network of SPEEDY+ .
Warning: the filtering of MAC ID’s is not a foolproof security solution, you should not rely only on it to ensure security for the WiFi network. MAC addresses over a network could be faked, unauthorized persons can use Identity Theft (MAC Spoofing) to simulate MAC ID’s that are allowed to join the network.
Page 33
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 32
5.2.3. Commit
The “Commit” option described here is not specific to LAN, but rather it is a general option for the SPEEDY+ equipment. If you performed configuration changes, using the “Save” button is not enough.
You should always press the “Commit” button if you want to make these changes permanent.
This button is located at the bottom of the Menu list, to the left side of the screen.
You will see a “Commit Settings” message and, underneath it, a ed progress bar which says: “Saving changes, please wait …”
The message is necessary, saving will take some times, because the changed settings are saved into permanent (Flash) memory of the equipment.
When you use “Save” the change is instant, since it uses only the temporary (RAM) memory, which is faster.
SPEEDY+ resets, and when it starts again, the new set of parameters will be active.
Warning! While committing changes, when restting SPEEDY+ or while loading a new
program image, the equipment will cease operation for a few seconds. This means all connections: data link, voice, LAN and WiFi will be interrupted, then will resume when SPEEDY+ starts again. For instance, the status bar at the bottom of the screen will temporary indicate that the LAN connection with SPEEDY+ is not available:
Then SPEEDY+ HDSPA restarts with the new parameter, and the LAN connection is immediately restored.
Page 34
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 33
5.2.4. DHCP
Settings related to Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (assigning dynamic IP addresses to the clients in the network) and DNS servers. SPEEDY+ can be used as a DHCP server for your local network.
DHCP Server: Enabled or Disabled. Check this to enable the DHCP server. This will allow you to use SPEEDY+ HSDPA as an IP address provider for automatic IP configuration of your computers. It will assign automatically temporary IP addresses for the local network, without the need for an administrator. The SPEEDY+ HSDPA Wireless Router supports up to 254 IP addresses for your wireless network. If the DHCP server is enabled the IP address of a local PC can be obtained automatically from the SPEEDY+ HSDPA Router, else it must be manually assigned by the network administrator.
Warning: If you enable the DHCP feature of SPEEDY+ , make sure that there is no other DHCP servr in your local network!
Start IP: Starting IP Address. The DHCP server allocates IP addresses in a user specified range (a pool of addresses). The Start option sets the starting IP address from which the range begins. End IP: DHCP Server End IP Address. The End option sets the end IP address, the last
address in the pool to be assigned by the DHCP server in your local network. Note: In a local network, the first address numbers (such as 1 …9) are usually reserved for
special equipment: gateway, name servers, file server, server for e-mail, etc. Remember that the default IP address of SPEEDY+ router is 192.168.1.1, so the Start IP must be
192.168.1.2 or greater, but smaller than 192.168.1.254. You should set for DHCP an adequate IP range, for instance form 10 to 20 for a small network , or from 20 to 50 in case of a larger network, with may local stations.
To check the correct assignment of IP address, double click the icon corresponding to the SPEEDY+ network connection on the desktop of your computer.
Page 35
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 34
The Status window for the network connection will appear, as shown. Click on the tab “Support” to see details about the network connection named “SPEEDY+ HSDPA”:
The “Support” window tells you that the IP address has been “Assigned by DHCP” and is in this example 192.168.1.12 (inside the range 10-20 that you have specified). You can also verify that the default gateway is 192.168.1.1 (the SPEEDY+ device) and the Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0.
DNS Servers:
Select which primary and secondary servers for DNS (Domain Name Service) will be used. Options are Automatic (default) and Manual.
If you leave the setting to the default Automatic, the equipment will look for DNS servers in the local or remote networks. Should you select the option “Manual”, then you must complete the one or two IP addresses of the Nameservers (primary and alternate).
5.3 WAN
Here are the pages for configuring the WAN (remote network) side of the SPEEDY+ router
In the WAN page you must:
- First select the type of the connection you use for WAN (Ethernet, PPPoE or PPP)
- then configure the settings for the respective section
- finally set up the GRE tunneling, if there is need.
5.3.1. Settings
Here you select the type of the interface you use for WAN connection:
Page 36
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 35
Interface Type: Select either:
- PPP modem for dial-up connection
- PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)
- Ethernet Port
Masquerade: Enable or Disable masquerading. Performs IP Masquerading or NAT (translation of source and destination IP addresses and port numbers upon data packets). Usually, when you use either the PPP modem or an ETH port for WAN connection, masquerading must be enabled. If the Internet provider that you connect to performs the masquerading at its location, you may leave this option Disabled.
5.3.2. Ethernet
If you use an Ethernet interface for WAN, you must fill in these settings.
Address Type: options are Static or DHCP Assigned. If you select ”Static”, then you must also fill in the other parameters for an Ethernet address:
IP Address value on the WAN side, Netmask such as 255.255.0.0, the address of Gateway used for routing.
To properly access the WAN via Ethernet, you must also complete adequately the values for DNS, which are found in the “Services>DHCP” configuration page (“DHCP Assigned” or manual, the primary and secondary servers for the domain names (Nameserver 1 and 2).
Page 37
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 36
5.3.3. PPPoE
Settings for the connection using Point-to Point Protocol over the Ethernet. This may be used for instance if you connect to the Internet via an external DSL modem instead of the embedded HDSPA module.
Settings are the same as for “normal” PPP, except that the modem-related command strings are missing here.
Username: The user name used for log-in to the Internet account provided by the ISP. Password: The password used for authentication to your Internet account. Redial Period: time in seconds until redialing a connection, if it was broken Idle Time: SPEEDY+ can disable the connection when there is no more data traffic. If no
data packet is sent through the interface for a specified period of time, the Internet connection will be broken. This is useful in case of connections where you pay per connected time. You can specify this time interval, in seconds. If the interval is too short, even a momentary lack of activity (no data traffic) will cause the Internet connection to be interrupted. If you set the time interval to 0 (zero), the connection will remain always on, even if there is no data traffic on the remote interface. MTU: value for the Maximum Transmission Unit. MTU is the largest physical packet size, measured in bytes, which a network can transmit. Messages larger than this will be fragmented into several packets. Different networks have different values for MTU, which is set by the network administrator. The default MTU size is 576 for many PPP connections, 1500 for Ethernet networks, etc. The same applies for MRU (maximum receive unit).

5.3.4. PPP
Settings for the PPP connections. To ensure high versatility, this page has several of configuration: for modem, for connection and for routing:
Modem settings:
This section controls the parameters of the Point-to-Point Protocol for the serial connection, in this case the embedded HSDPA modem. You need to change these settings when you go to a region with different settings, if you use a different network operator or when you replace the embedded HSDPA modem with another, external 3G modem that requires special parameters. AT Init Command #1, 2, 3: Enter the character strings for the AT commands used to initialize the modem. Depending on the specifications of your 3G provider, you may need only one AT command or several. AT Dial Command: Dial String, the AT command used to dial to the ISP, which includes the mobile phone number to be dialed. There are five “At Dial Command” fields, if there is no need to use all of them, fill the remaining with “AT”. You should not leave empty fields in this section!
Page 39
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 38
Connection settings
Parameters for the connection to the mobile Internet provider.
Username: The user name used for log-in to the 3G (UMTS) wireless network Password: The password used for authentication. Some network operators do not need
username and password, log-in is allowed or not based upon Caller ID. MTU: value for the Maximum Transmission Unit. MTU is the largest physical packet size, measured in bytes that a network can transmit. Messages larger than this will be fragmented into several packets. Different networks have different values for MTU, which is set by the network administrator. The default MTU size is 576 for many PPP connections, 1500 for Ethernet networks, etc. Idle Time: SPEEDY+ can disable the dial-up connection when there is no more data traffic. If no data packet is sent through thee UMTS link, the Internet connection will be broken. You can specify this time interval, in seconds. If you set the time interval to 0 (zero), the dial-up connection will remain always on, even if there is no data traffic on the remote interface. When it detects outgoing data traffic, SPEEDY+ automatically performs dial-up, in order to connect to the Internet.
Route: Default route: Disabled or Enabled. This is a new feature, allows you to ask the Internet
provider for a static address. Usually, the ISP assigns you the first available address each time you connect. Now you have the options either to accept the dynamic address assigned by DHCP or to ask for a specific static address. In this case you must fill the other parameters too:
IP Address, Gateway, and the Name servers (primary and secondary) to be used.
5.3.5. GRE
Settings for the GRE IP Tunnel, which is used when you need to perform IP tunneling in order to achieve a Virtual Private Network using several SPEEDY+ HSDPA devices interconnected over the 3G mobile communications network.
GRE IP Tunnel0: select Enable or Disable. The default is Disabled, meaning that IP tunneling is not used.
If the GRE IP tunneling is turned on (Enabled), the fields will be displayed normally, so you can enter or edit the corresponding values. Remote Endpoint IP Address: the address of the opposed (remote) end of the IP tunnel Local Endpoint IP Address: the address of the starting (local) end of the IP tunnel Local IP Address: static local address (in the LAN) and the respective Netmask Key: the “key” code required for establishing a GRE IP tunnel.
Page 40
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 39
This is a security feature, using a proprietary application: the remote endpoint won’t accept tunneling connections unless it “know” their respective keys. This way, if unauthorized persons know your GRE settings but do not have the code for the key, they won’t be able to establish an IP tunnel. By default the Key field has the value “off”, meaning no tunnel key is used.
Note that SPEEDY+ HDSPA features two GRE IP tunnels, GRE0 and GRE1 respectively. Depending upon the requirements of your application, you may use a single GRE tunnel, both of them or none.
5.4 ROUTING
The section about “ROUTING” includes thee sub-sections: Firewall, Routes (static) and Dynamic.
5.4.1. Firewall
The “Firewall” section includes both NAT (redirecting addresses and ports) and Firewall (accepts or rejects data packets).
SPEEDY+ HSDPA features a SPI firewall that uses static and dynamic packet filtering. The static packet filtering firewall examines each incoming and outgoing packet based on several criteria such as Source IP address, Destination IP address. SPEEDY+ comes with a default configuration for the firewall, which ensures the security of your local network. If you want to change these default settings, you must proceed with care. The firewall and
Page 41
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 40
advanced packet routing can be configured using the iptables command. For more information, see http://www.netfilter.org.
Page 42
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 41
The firewall has three sections, for input, output and forwarding. The syntax of the firewall rules is “-A INPUT -p icmp -j DROP”. The argument -A INPUT argument tells the firewall to append this rule to the INPUT chain. -p icmp argument indicates that this rule applies to the icmp protocol, and the -j DROP shows that packets matching this rule must be dropped. To delete the previous rule, a command like: iptables -D INPUT 1, which tells the firewall to drop (-D) the first rule from the INPUT chain. If you have multiple rules, you may drop any one of them without affecting the others.
The source (-s) argument tells the firewall which network or hosts from which you're willing to accept connections, while --destination-port specifies the type of TCP connection you're willing to accept. For instance, to block any connections from outside your local network write: -A INPUT -s ! 198.168.0.0 -p tcp --destination-port ssh -j DROP If you apply the same rule to the OUTPUT chain: -A OUTPUT -p tcp --destination-port telnet ­j DROP, then the outgoing telnet connections will be blocked. Instead of dropping the data packets, you can reject them, with commands like -A OUTPUT -p tcp --destination-port telnet
-j REJECT Warning! Please note that if you change the default values you may compromise
your network security by allowing untrusted access. These configuration options need an advanced level of knowledge regarding network security and Linux kernel packet handling.
Note : As you may see, the visible settings of the NAT/firewall configuration page are very few. This happens because the basic rules for address translation and packet filtering are already defined, and they are not directly accessible to the user. Since they can’t be changed, they are not visible!
What you see are the additional rules, the ones that you are allowed to modify, to supplement or delete. The firmware of SPEEDY+ HSDPA automatically installs the basic rules that are required. For instance, if you enable the Webcam feature, the firmware opens the port 2000 for TCP traffic, if you enable the NTP service it opens port 123 for UDP traffic, and so on.

WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 42
5.4.2. Static Routes
Routing means determining and prescribing the path or method used for forwarding data packets. This option page is concerned about fixed (static) routes. It shows the current routing table for SPEEDY+ HSDPA and allows you to define up to 10 (ten) static routes.
Note that the Static Routes configuration screen has two distinct parts:
- the upper pane displays the current routing table:
Here you can only see the existing static routes for SPEEDY+ (default routes, gateway, masquerading if used, interface used, and so on), you cannot perform changes;
- the lower pane allows you to define up to ten (10) static routes:
Page 44
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 43
For each static route you must perform these settings:
Route: Enable or Disable. By default, all ten are disabled. IP: Address of the remote network or host to which you want to assigne a static route. Netmask: the subnet mask determines which protion of the destination IP address is the
network part and which is the host part Router: the gateway to be used, enter the IP address of the router which allows for contact between SPEEDY+ and the remote host or network. Interface: the interface to be used for the respective route. You may select one of the four available options: local network (WIFI and LAN Ethernet ports), WAN Ethernet port, PPP interface (HSDPA modem), GRE Tunnel 0 or 1.
5.4.3 Dynamic routes
The last configuration page in “Routing” is for dynamic routing. As an alternative to SPEEDY+ as router for the connection to Internet of your network, you may choose Dynamic Routing.
You may select to leave the Dynamic Routing disabled (default) or to use either RIP or OSPF algorithm for dynamic routing. In the Dynamic mode of routing, you need not specifiy fixed routes. Instead, the router adjusts automatically to ohysical changes in the layout of the network and it exchanges routing tables with other routers.
RIP - Routing Information Protocol. It was the first routing protocol implemented for dynamic routing and hence it is widely used. RIP is a distance-vector routing protocol. The route of the data packets is determined in such way as to have the fewest possible number of hops between the source and the destination.
OSPF - Open Shortest Path First. It is a link state routing protocol, as opposed to distance vector protocol (RIP). It is an Internet standard IGP defined in RFCs 1583 1793 and RFC 2328.
Page 45
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 44
Runs directly over IP and interfaces with SNMP for configuration and control purposes. As a link-state routing protocol, OSPF contrasts with RIP and IGRP, which are distance ­vector routing protocols
The SPF (shortest path first) algorithm used by OSPF has the advantage is that it results in smaller more frequent updates everywhere, makes for a stable network. Its disadvantage is that it requires for processing a lot of CPU power and memory.
SPEEDY+ HSDPA lets you choose for dynamic routing the protocol that you think is the best for the actual condition of your applications.
Don’t forget to click the Save button and then “Commit” to make permanent the change you performed!

5.5 SYSTEM
Shows the status and logs and allows you to perform several system-related operations.
The system configuration pages include these settings:
- Status, displays the current status of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment
- Logs, shows the log file
- Update, you may perform firmware update
- Password, allows modification of the password
- Defaults, restores the factory default settings
- Save, saves the current configuration of SPEEDY+
- Load, loads a stored configuration.
5.5.1. Status
Shows the status of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA system:
This page displays information about the following items:
- version of the firmware running on SPEEDY+ : you may see “Firmware version is
0.3.7” or “0.5.6 –HSDPA-P” in the above example, and so on
- state of the HDSPA terminal (3G modem): connected or disconnected
- state of the PPP data link: online (active) or offline; if it is online, the IP allotted by
your provider will be also shown, such as “127.20.38.128” or “80.97.185.70”
- state of USB webcam: connected or not
- System uptime: time since the last restart of the SPEEDY+ equipment, both in full
format (hours:minutes:seconds) and short format (up 1 minute)
- Load average: “0.06, 0.04, 0.01” - info about system loading (maximum value / average value / number of active processes)
- DHCP Leases: info about temporary IP address obtained from DHCP server, including MAC, IP, name, validity period, etc – such as “946728080 00:0f:57:23:5e:2c
192.168.1.73 fane40 01:00:0e:35:22:5e:2c”.
Page 47
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 46
The “Reload” button at the bottom makes SPEEDY+ read again these system settings. Click this button to be sure you see the latest values
Examples:
- SPEEDY+ device with the PPP link (3G modem) online:
- SPEEDY+ with the PPP link off-line, but with two local clients (wired or wireless) connected, has assigned them temporary IP addresses form DHCP (12 and 20):
- SPEEDY+ with two local clients (wired or wireless) connected, has assigned them temporary IP addresses form DHCP (19 and 18), instead of PPP link it uses the Ethernet port for WAN connection. You can also notice the uptime (time of uninterrupted operation) of over five days:
Page 48
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 47
5.5.2. Logs
Shows the system log
The log is a place where all the applications running on the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment store their output messages: status reports, confirmation or error messages, activity, and so on. The log may be saved on your PC (simply use “Save As” option of your browser) for further examination, it is a very useful recording of all activities on the equipment. Remote Log IP: address where the log will be sent if changes occur. Use this IP setting to send the log messages to a remote location. If you leave this address “0.0.0.0” it means the log won’t be sent.
5.5.3. Update
Allows you to perform an update or upgrade of the firmware running on SPEEDY+ HSDPA.
The update (firmware image) must be on your PC. The image files have the extension “trx” You may download the image files form the WMOCEAN website. The update files are called “WMOCEAN-x.y.z-HSDPA.trx”, where xyz is the version number, for instance 0.5.6. Enter the name of the update or click Browse to search your system for it. If you click “Browse” a standard window for choosing a file shows up. Go to the folder that has the “.trx” files. Usually, you should have a folder on your harddisk reserved for SPEEDY+ firmware updates and saving of configurations. In this example the folder located on drive C: of the PC is called “Updates”:
Page 49
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 48
Select the file you want and press Open.
Each firmware file has a Control Sum associated with it, and it won’t be loaded if the control sum does not check out. The control sum is a string of hexadecimal figures, such as “f2209c63972be34f55d4e69d90042d93” and it is stored in a text file with .md5 extension, with the same name as the firmware image. This Control Sum checking feature ensures that you will not load a image file that become corrupted, because such a corrupted firmware could prevent operation of your SPEEDY+ equipment. Click the “Send” button to perform the update. A “Firmware Update” window shows up, you can see a progress indicator under the message “Firmware is updating, please wait!”
Note that there are two distinct, successive phases of updating the firmware image: in the first one, while the message “Updating firmware” is blinking, the equipment just checks the program image to be loaded against its checksum. If the result is OK, the SPEEDY+ device goes to the second phase, it really loads the new firmware into its Flash memory. In this phase, the progress indicator is colored in red:
Warning! Do not update the firmware unless you have problems with the SPEEDY+ router or the new firmware has a feature that you need. Remember to backup your current configuration first. Be careful when you load an update file. If you select a wrong kind of file, or if for different reasons firmware upgrading fails, the equipment will no longer operate correctly. You will need to contact the manufacturer for repairs in some cases.
To avoid this, follow carefully the rules indicated here.
- use the power supply adapter from the manufacturer when upgrading the firmware
- check that the “WMOCEAN-x.y.z-HDSPA-P.trx” file you want to load is newer than
your current firmware version
Page 50
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 49
- make sure that the adapter and your PC don’t turn off during update. It is better to use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) for this purpose
- never turn off the SPEEDY+ equipment or the computer while the firmware is being overwritten
- be advised that the functions of the equipment are not available while a firmware update is in progress
- after successful updating, verify the upgraded firmware
- remember that updating the firmware on the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment could
cause some or all of the configuration settings to be lost, depending on the degree of change in the firmware. Therefore it is highly recommended that you save your current configuration before updating, then you restore it. To backup your settings, perform a Save, update the firmware, and then Load the saved settings, after you have the equipment operating with the updated firmware.
5.5.4. Password
Allows you to modify the administrator password.
Type the new password, then enter it again on the second row to confirm it. “Save” saves the new password. You replace the default password with one of your own as soon as possible. Please choose a password with minimum six characters. In order to effectively prevent unauthorized access, the password must be long enough and include both letters and numbers. Also, it should be easy to remember, so you don’t have to write it down. Note that the password is case-sensitive.
Page 51
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 50
5.5.5. Defaults
This option restores the default (factory) settings for all the parameters that can be configured. When you select “Defaults”, first a confirmation window shows up, asking you “Are you sure?”.
If you want to proceed, click the YES button and the equipment will revert to the factory default settings. Following a reset, it will start operating with the factory default values for all parameters. During the process you will see on screen the blinking message “Updating settings, please wait!” and a red progress bar, as shown below:
CAUTION!
Use this option very carefully. During the process, SPEEDY+ will not be available for routing and connecting to the 3G network. For a few moments, the LAN icon in the status bar will be barred with a red “x” and the message “A network cable is unplugged” will show up, indicating that SPEEDY+ HSDPA is unavailable. Also, this option removes all configuration information, including your new password. You will loose your current settings (the original configuration), if this configuration was not saved or if you have not written it down. It may be possible that the factory default settings are not suited for your connection, so SPEEDY+ won’t perform the networking functions you expect.
Hardware factory defaults
If you want, you can also perform the “Return to Defaults” operation via hardware. This means you do not need to use the Web interface! For this, simply press the Reset button (located on the back panel, among the connectors) for at least three seconds. The SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment will reboot and revert to the factory default settings. This way of restoring the factory default settings is faster than using the web interface, but you should exercise the same care.
Note: the “Return to Defaults” option is quite useful when incorrect settings have been performed or when you have forgotten the IP of the SPEEDY+ device. If you don’t the IP address you won’t be able to connect to the wireless router to administer it. So you should perform a hardware “factory defaults”, and SPEEDY+ HSDPA will revert to its original settings, including the IP address of 192.168.1.1
Page 52
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 51
5.5.6 Save
Makes a backup of the configuration, saves the current configuration (all of the settings) of the SPEEDY+ equipment. The configuration file is called by default “SPEEDY+ .sav” and the extension for these files is “sav”.
You will see a message similar to the one shown in this image, a warning about “Opening” or “File Download”. The operating system “sees” that SPEEDY+ wants to download to your PC a file of unknown type (the configuration file “SPEEDY+ .sav”) and asks you if you agree. Click “Save” or select “Save it to disk” to save the file with the current configuration of SPEEDY+ HSDPA.
You may select the folder where the configuration will be saved; also, you should change the default name “SPEEDY+ .sav” into a name meaningful for your actual configuration, such as “WAN ETH” if you use an Ethernet connection for WAN or “WAN PPP modem” if you use the embedded HDSPA modem for the WAN connection.
Note: It is highly recommended that you backup your configuration from time to time,
using the “Save” option. This way you can always load the saved configuration, if there is need. For instance, when you perform a “Restore to factory defaults”, all previous settings are lost. If you have saved the configuration, you can load it back to perform changes. Also, you should perform a “Save” before using “Update” to load a new software image, since the new firmware could erase some of the settings.
5.5.7. Load
Loads a configuration (settings of the equipment) that has been saved previously or restores a backup.
Use “Browse” to search the local hard disks or the network for the saved configuration file, for instance
“WAN PPPmodem”:
Press Open, then click “Send” to send the file to the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment.
Page 53
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 52
A red progress bar will be displayed, and above it you will see the blinking message “Updating settings, please wait”
5.6 SERVICES
Here you may configure settings for the “services” provided by SPEEDY+ , such as DDNS, NTP, webcam, and function of the RST button.
5.6.1 DDNS
Settings for the server of Dynamic DNS. The DDNS feature of SPEEDY+ lets you assign a fixed host and domain name to a dynamic Internet IP address.
Page 54
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 53
Dynamic DNS Service: Enables or disables the DDNS service. Server: The full name of the server for Dynamic DNS. Dynamic DNS is a service that
enables mapping of a dynamically assigned IP address (from the 3G provider) to a static or permanent hostname. This allows you to be able to use applications that require a static IP address, such as hosting your own website, FTP server or other server behind the SPEEDY+ router. Username: User name for log-in to DDNS Server, it is not the same as the user name for the Internet provider.
Password: Password for authentication to DDNS Server. Domain: The domain name for Dynamic DNS. You must have membership which one of the
providers of dynamic DNS services, such as www.dyndns.org, www.cjb.net , www.TZO.com, www.dns2go.com, www.dynamip.com, www.whyi.org, www.soliddns.com, www.ods.org etc
.
These factory default settings may not work in your area, you should change the DDNS parameters according to the specifications of your Internet provider.
Page 55
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 54
5.6.2 NTP
The Network Time Protocol is used to update the real-time clock in a computer, over Internet.
NTP Service: select Enabled or Disabled Server: enter the full name of the NTP server you want to use, such as
“utcnist.colorado.edu” or “ro.pool.ntp.org”. The “Current time” indicator shows the current UTC time (Coordinated Universal Time) of the system, with millisecond precision. If NTP server is not active, it will display the default UTC time, which is Jan 1, 2000. But if you have enabled it, it should display the current time (UTC) as shown next:
This UTC time may be different from the local time of your computer!
5.6.3 Webcam
Shows and modifies settings of the web camera connected to SPEEDY+ HSDPA.
WebCam Service: select Enable to activate it. By default it is set to Disabled. Image Size: you may select one of the three standard values: 160x120, 320x240 or 640x480
(VGA). Default value is 320x240. It is recommended that you start with the minimum value, then increase it if it works, because some types of webcams do not support higher resolutions.
Page 56
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 55
Image quality: chooses the quality of the image. Range is from 100 to zero, 100 being uncompressed and 0 maximum compression. Default value is 50, which gives a high compression and an acceptable quality and speed. Uncompressed images have the highest quality, but the resulting video file is large and the frame rate will be low.
Click “View Webcam” to open a widow showing the live images that the webcam “sees”. View Webcam.
Fist, you may get a warning such as this one:
Click “Yes” to continue.
Now you should see the camera window on your screen.
Dependig on the actual type of webcam you use, you may have access to various controls. Usually, the live video screen is an insert to the left. Some types of cameras feature in the upper right corner there are two buttons, “Stop” and “Control”, and a checkbox “Devices”. Underneath the video image the current frame rate is shown – such as 5,6 frames per second. If you click the “Stop” button, video streaming is stopped, and the button changes to “Start”. The total number of frames will be shown beneath, together with the respective time, such as: “286 frames in 44,2 s”.
Page 57
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 56
If you want to change to a higher resolution, go to “Image Size” and select for instance “320x240”. The image quality will be noticeably better, you’ll be able to see more details, but the frame rate will go down – in this example 3,5 frames per second.
If you press “Control”, you can control the zoom and pan features of the web camera, if the device supports such commands. A message shows up, “Will keep control for at least 30 s”. Again, if you press “Stop” the streaming of video data stops and the number of frames is shown beneath the picture, for example “417 frames in 111 s (3.6 f/s)” To set the brightness of the video images, check the box “Devices” located under the Stop and Control buttons. A small applet window shows up, allowing you to increase or decrease the brightness, provided that your webcam supports this feature.
If you need full VGA resolution, select the maximum image size, “640x480”, provided that your webcam supports this resolution. In this case the image is better, but the frame rate is also correspondingly lower, only about one frame per second in this example (1.1 f/s).
5.6.4. Reset
Here you can change the assignment of the Reset button:
Reset Button Settings – you choose the option you want. The function of the Reset (RST) button, located on the back panel among the connectors, can be changed according to your needs.
Page 58
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 57
Do nothing – yes, this “do nothing” action may be useful. Even if you accidentally press Reset, nothing happens. You can still perform Reset via software!
Reboot – it performs a full reboot (restart) of SPEEDY+ HSDPA. Reset Data Connection – only the data connection is resetted, the equipment does not stop
operating. Reset to Factory Defaults – full reboot, when SPEEDY+ starts again the current settings are replaced by the factory defaults (the original parameters from the manufacturer). This option is the one most often used.
5.6.5 PWC compatible cameras
The firmware of the SPEEDY+ equipment allows direct operation with webcams that are compatible to the PWC Linux drivers. driver The driver is intended primary for Philips & OEM USB webcam, and supports also several cameras from Logitech, Aiptek , Askey, Creative Labs, Samsung, Sotec and Visionite. Decompression is supported for up to resolutions 640x480 (maximum physical resolution of the CCD sensor). There are limits ti the maximum resolution and frame rate. Thus, VGA resolutions are limited to 15 fps because of the bandwidth available on the USB bus. The same cameras may work faster (up to 60 frames per second at lower resolutions). Other cameras olnly operate at quarter VGA resolutions: QCIF (176x144) or QSIF (160x120). The PWC driver supports a range of widely used consumer or general purpose webcams, such as:
- from Philips: PCA645V,C PCA646VC, PCVC675K "Vesta" PCVC680K "Vesta Pro" PCVC690K "Vesta Scan", PCVC720K/40 "ToUCam XS", PCVC730K "ToUCam Fun", PCVC740K "ToUCam Pro", PCVC750K “ToUCam Scan" , PCVC830K "ToUCam Fun II", and PCVC840K "ToUCam Pro II";
- from Logitech: QuickCam 3000 Pro and 4000 Pro, QuickCam Notebook Pro, QuickCam Zoom, QuickCam Orbit/Sphere;
- from Creative Labs: old Webcam 5, Webcam Pro Ex;
- from Samsung: MPC-C10 and MPC-C30;
- from Visionite: VCS UM100, VCS UC300;
- SPC900NC;
- Sotec Afina Eye;
- Askey VC010 .

5.7 SIM
Here are the configuration pages related not only to the SIM card but also to the mobile module of the equipment. Also, from here you may send or receive SMS messages.
5.7.1. SIM Status
This page shows you the current state of the SIM card and of the GSM/GPRS/UMTS/ HSDPA module of your SPEEDY+ equipment.
The status of the HSDPA modules is automatically read every five seconds. The following information items are displayed:
- Security: the normal state is “unlocked” or “OK”. This means the SIM is active and you may use the equipment. If you see “locked by PIN” it means the SIM card asks for the correct PIN code to unlock. The PIN code you have entered previously is incorrect. You must go to the SIM settings and input the correct PIN to unlock the subscriber card. It may also by locked by PUK if you entered a wrong PIN code three times in a row – then it needs a PUK code to unlock. Note: When SIM Status displays “locked by PUK2” or “locked by PIN2” this in not an error warning, it means it is locked only for special network services (such as roaming) that SPEEDY+ HSDPA does not require.
- Modem Version: the version of the firmware, read from the 3G modem module
- IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity), identity of the subscriber (of the SIM card). This is a unique code number (15 digits) that identifies a mobile subscriber to the network. If the HSDPA module of SPEEDY+ detects an active SIM card, it will query (and display) the IMSI code. Since the IMSI code is related to the SIM, when you change the SIM card used with SPEEDY+ you will have another IMSI code.
Page 60
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 59
- IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identifier). 15-digit number that uniquely identifies an individual mobile terminal wireless device. While IMSI is specific to the subscriber (SIM card), IMEI in specific to the equipment (HDSPA modem of SPEEDY+ ) If the SIM card is missing, the SIM Status window will show “error” in the fields Security, IMSI, Signal Level, Network and respectively Registration. But you will still see the version of the 3G modem and the IMEI code, since they are equipment-dependent, and not related to the SIM card.
- Signal Level, displayed as two groups of two figures such as “15/30”. The two digits indicate the level of the RF signal for the GSM/GPRS/UMTS/HSDPA network on a scale from zero to 30. If the SIM card is missing, as in the example above, of course no signal level can be displayed.
- Network: the name of the mobile network where the equipment is registered, as transmitted by the mobile carrier
- Registration status: shows if the SIM card of the equipment is registered to the mobile network or not. In this example the SIM is unlocked, it is active, it has registered to the mobile network, since it shows not only the IMSI and the Signal level, but also the name of the mobile carrier, but is currently offline.
Warning! When the HSDPA module is in a call, or while it is transmitting or receiving SMS, it cannot be interrogated about its state. So if you click “SIM Status” while in a voice call, you will get an error message (ERR). This does not mean something is wrong, simply try again (click “Reload”) later, when you have finished the voice call or the transmission of SMS messages.

5.7.2. SIM Settings
In this section you may perform several settings related to the HSDPA module and to the SIM card.
PIN: you may enter here the PIN code for the SIM card Volume level: you can establish the volume (sound) level.
Valid settings for the audio level are from zero to 4, where 0 means silence (the volume will be zero, you won’t hear anything). Click “Save” to save the modified settings and then “Commit” if you want to make the changes permanent after a reset of the equipment. Service Center Number: enter the full phone number. In order for the SMS facility to operate, you must have set the correct number. This is the center for SMS messages of the of the GSM operator, you must input the phone number of the respective GSM carrier. You may edit (change) the default number. Enter the number of the SMS Service carrier for your area. To make effective the changes, press the button "Save” and then “Commit”. Notes:
- you must enter the full (complete) phone number for the SMS center
- the number is displayed as shown above, but you must enter it inside quotes, that is “+40722004000”
The following "SMS" options let you send or to receive SMS messages from your computer to any GSM mobile phone user, through the HSDPA module of the SPEEDY+ equipment cell phones.
5.7.3. SMS Read
Reads the short text messages and displays a list of SMS messages that were received through the mobile module of the SPEEDY+ equipment.
This list for displaying received SMS messages has the following columns:
Page 62
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 61
- ID (reference number: 1, 2, and so on up to 14),
-
STATUS (REC for Received, READ means the message has been read, while UNREAD means it was not read ),
-
FROM (the phone number of the sender) such as “+420602909909”,
-
DATE (date and time in normal format: two digits for year, month, date of the month, hour, minutes, seconds and after the “+” sign the tenths of seconds),
-
and finally TEXT, where you can see the text of the message.
You may delete one or several messages by typing the index in the box at the bottom and clicking “Go”.
Note: The maximum storage capacity is 15 messages (ID’s 0 to 14). When you already have 15 SMS stored in memory, the SPEEDY+ equipment won’t be able to receive newer SMS. If you want to continue receiving messages, you must delete some of the older SMS. Look at the “DATE” field and delete the messages that you no longer need.
After deletion, click again “SMS Read” to read messages from the server. The new message will be displayed, at first at the bottom of the list, and upon next “Read” command it fill be sorted upon the “ID” field and placed in its proper position.
In this example, several messages have been
erased to make place. Another SMS has been received and displayed with the index “4”,
replacing one of the deleted messages. Upon next Read operation, the SPEEDY+ equipment performs sorting by ID, and the newest message is shown in the proper place with ID “4”, although its date is different from the previous group of messages.
5.7.4 SMS Send
This option allows you to send out a SMS message through the mobile network.
Just type in the destination phone number in the field “To” and the text you want to transmit in the field “Message”, then click the Send button. Then wait about 40 seconds for the mobile network to perform the sending operation. If the SMS cannot be send (network busy, congestion or other problems), an error messages will be shown on top of the screen. Note: if the phone number that is destination for the SMS is in the same network, you may enter it in short form, as above. But if it is in a different mobile network, you must type it in full format: country code, area code, number, for example “+40747999999”.

5.8. VOICE
This section is about the voice part of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment and allows you to configure the phone interface and the routing of the calls. There are two configuration page for the voice section Settings, which allows you to select the type of the phone interface and the routing of incoming calls and Status , which shows the current state of the voice interface of your SPEEDY+ device. To understand these settings, you must first review the modes of connecting SPEEDY+ to a PBX or a phone.
5.8.1. Phone Connections for SPEEDY+ HSDPA
The telephony interfaces of SPEEDY+ HSDPA can be connected in several ways:
- to an analogue trunk of a PBX exchange
- directly to an analogue phone
- to a local interface (office subscriber) of PBX exchange
For this purpose SPEEDY+ HSDPA has two interfaces with RJ11 connectors, one is for FxO connection and the other for FxS connection. Only one of them may be connected at any moment of time! The selection is done through the Web interface, in the “PHONE” subsection, where you must set the phone line interface either as FXS or as FXO.
Connecting to a PBX trunk or a telephone
Use the FXS interface of SPEEDY+ HSDPA (which must be activated from the Web configuration page VOICE Settings), as shown in the drawing below:
Incoming call
SPEEDY+ HSDPA interface receives a call over GSM/GPRS/HSDPA network. The equipment sends a call signal to the analogical phone that is connected or to the PBX exchange; in the second variant the exchange switches the call a local subscriber.
Outgoing call
PBX exchange must be configured to output the calls through SPEEDY+ HSDPA. The user simply dials the wanted number from an office telephone.
Page 64
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 63
PBX exchange processes the number and analyses the prefix and sends it to the outgoing trunk where SPEEDY+ HSDPA is installed. Then SPEEDY+ HSDPA transmits the call to the mobile network.
Connecting to an extension of PBX
For this the FxO interface of SPEEDY+ HSDPA is used, also properly enabled.
This kind of connection is very useful especially when there are no available analogue trunks: for instance PBX exchange is entirely configured as ISDN type or it has no more free analogue trunk (all of them are busy).
Incoming call
• with DISA (Direct Inward Service Access) A call is received from the mobile network. SPEEDY+ HSDPA answers and opens a local line. The PBX exchange generates a
dial tone. On this tone, the caller dials the number: a local extension or an external number. The PBX exchange routes this call in the same way as it treats any call came from a local subscriber.
• with automatically routing to a Target A call is received from the mobile network.
SPEEDY+ HSDPA answers and opens a local line. The PBX generates a dial tone. On receiving this tone, SPEEDY+ assigns it a specified local extension (programmable Target Number). The engaged extension rings and the calli over mobile network is established. The local extension can be, for instance, the operator panel who answers and directs manually the incoming calls.
Outgoing call
The user dials the number of local interfaces, where SPEEDY+ HSDPA is connected. SPEEDY+ HSDPA answers and generates dial tone. After the recovering this tone, the
caller dials the number of mobile network subscriber. SPEEDY+ HSDPA transmits the reading and makes the link with mobile network.
Test calls
For all the configurations shown above, it is recommended that you make first some test calls, to verify that the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment operates correctly.
Note: if you want to be able to use the voice phone connection, after you have performed the required settings and pressed “Commit”, check that the GSM/GPRS/HSDPA module is properly registered to the 3G network. Verify that the 3G led blinks twice in quick succession to show correct registration. Otherwise you will have no voice connection and hence no dial tone when you pick up the phone connected to SPEEDY+ HSDPA. It is possible that you have a good data connection,
Page 65
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 64
and can you surf the Net or download files over the HSDPA broadband network, but the voice service is not available for the moment!
Also, when you perform the Voice Interface settings for , take into account the warnings and recommendations shown in the respective paragraph.
5.8.2. VOICE Status
This page shows you the current state of the voice interface of SPEEDY+ .
The example above indicates that the voice port of the SPEEDY+ equipment is in a call. Some other possible states of the voice interface are explained below:
When you don’t use the voice connection, this should be the normal state: the handset in put down (on hook), the phone interface is not active.
You have picked up the handset, prior to dialing a number, or the phone exchange has engaged the junction where SPEEDY+ is connected. The phone line becomes active.
There is a call coming in, the phone port is in its RING phase. You shoud pick up the handset to answer the call.
Page 66
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 65
5.8.3. VOICE Settings
Here are the settings for the analog phone interface (FXS or FXS) of the equipment.
Port type: first of all, you must choose the type of the phone port to use. You can select either FXS (for connection to a trunk of the PBX or directly to an analog phone) or FXO (when SPEEDY+ HSDPA may be connected to a local extension of the PBX, as you would connect a standard office phone). The default is FXS,
Target Number - specifies how the incoming calls should be treated. The default is off, or you should type a phone number (up to 4 digits). When a call comes in through the FXO interface, you have two options: either provide the caller with DISA tone, allowing him to dial numbers in DTMF mode, or specify a Target number, such as 284. In the later case the DISA feature is not used, instead the incoming call is routed directly to the local extension established in the Target Number field. For instance, this extension may be the attendant console, so the operator will route the call manually.
Extension number – in case of configuration as FXO, the number of the local extension where the SPEEDY+ equipment is connected.
Warning, unauthorized voice access is possible! If there are no restrictions regarding the access rights of the extension where SPEEDY+ HSDPA is connected, anyone who calls the mobile number of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA from a public network will get access to the outgoing lines of the PBX. He will be able to make long distance calls that will be charged to the owner of the phone exchange.
Page 67
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 66
To avoid this risk you have two possibilities:
1. Either configure the PBX to reject the outgoing calls that are initiated from the
extension where the SPEEDY+ HSDPA interface is connected.
2. Or, if the exchange cannot be configured in that way, then you must set the
SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment not to offer a DISA tone when a mobile phone call coming in. Instead, specify a “Target Number” instead of providing DISA tone. The PBX will route the call to the operator. Instead of leaving the “Target Number” on the default “off” value, enter the number of the operator desk.
Learn Busy Tone: This setting refer to the requirement that the phone port of SPEEDY+ , used as FXO interface, remembers correctly the “busy” tone of the PBX. In order to rectmonitor the busy tone, the interface must be „told” of how to identify the busy tone where it is connected. Here is how you must proceed:
- set the line type as FXO and connect SPEEDY+ to a local extension;
- perform a “Save”;
- make a call to the respective extension, from another local phone of the PBX where the SPEEDY+ equipment is connected;
- SPEEDY+ will answer the call;
- than hang up the extension from where you made the call. This way a busy tone will be generated towards the extension where the SPEEDY+ device is connected;
- the interface (junction) is released, following a time interval, by the SPEEDY+ equipment. Check if FXO interface is released after a few seconds and click “Learn Busy Tone”;
- this tells to the SPEEDY+ HSDPA device “this is the correct busy tone”.
If yopu see the message “Done!”, it is OK, perform again a “Save”
- If SPEEDY+ does not release the interface, and you see an error message similar to this one:
you should start over again the learning process.
Warning! It is strongly recommended that you use “Leran Busy Tone”. Without it, the SPEEDY+ equipment cannot sense when the subscriber that called has hang up, and the PBX has setd “busy” tone. If the called party is a human being using a cell
Page 68
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 67
phone, he will hear the busy tone and should hang up. But if the correspondent is another equipment such as SPEEDY+ , it won’t realize that the call has been ended, and the link will remain on. Consequently, the phone bill will be huge! To prevent this from happening, you should use the “Busy Tone Detection” option.
5.9 Optimizing WiFi Performances
This paragraph shows you a few basic rules / suggestions for improving the performance of the wireless network of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA router.
5.9.1. Network physical configuration
As a general rule, you should try to locate the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment and their wireless clients away from sources of EMI disturbances. These sources can be heavy-duty electric motors, heaters, transformers, fluorescent lights, microwave ovens, refrigerators, radio and TV equipment, etc. To improve coverage, install the SPEEDY+ HSDPA Routers in open areas. If this can’t be done or the distance between the wireless base station and its clients is too large, you should use additional WiFi Access Points as needed, to obtain adequate signal strength through your building. Even SPEEDY+ may be used as transparent bridge (repeater) located midway between an AP and a remote client. There are appliances (microwave ovens) that operate in the same frequency band as the AP of BYTON Router. Thus your network performance may decrease when you use a microwave in the range of the WiFi of SPEEDY+ HSDPA. This does not mean operation is
impossible, both your microwave and your the SPEEDY+ wireless Router will continue to function.
5.9.2. Range
Before installing/setting up a SPEEDY+ HSDPA router, it is recommended to perform a site survey. Without this it is not to determine the exact range that will be achieved and the number of auxiliary APs required for a good coverage. Each office or home environment is unique because of different topologies, size and shape of rooms, materials, and so on.
Please remember that:
- the specified transfer rate is the speed at which individual bits of data flow through a channel, not necessarily the speed at which entire files are uploaded or downloaded
- these actual speed may vary, and often will be less than the maximum data rate
- wired or wireless speeds are affected by several factors including the availability of Internet routers, the level of loading of the 3G cell, the capacity of and services offered by your mobile network service provider, channel capacity, network traffic, computer equipment, type of server, number of connections to server, etc.
In the frequency bands used by WiFi, radio signals may be absorbed (damped) by some obstacles or reflect off of other obstacles, depending on their construction. The standard specifications for 802.11b devices guarantee “up to 350 m in open space”. This is achieved outdoors where the two devices see each other with no obstacles (they have a line of sight).
Still, the same two units may only achieve up to 100 m of range when used indoors. Heavy concrete or metal walls may decrease this range even further.
Also, the IEEE 802.11b specification supports four data rates: 11 Mbps, 5.5 Mbps, 2 Mbps, and 1 Mbps. Operation at 1 Mbps provides greater range than operation at 11 Mbps and so on. The SPEEDY+ HSDPA Router will automatically adjust the data rate to maintain a usable radio connection.
Page 69
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 68
This means that a WiFi client that is close to the SPEEDY+ wireless Router may operate at rates of 11 Mbps while a client that is on the far limit of coverage area will only operate at 1 Mbps.
If you want a very high data rate, the effective wireless range of the SPEEDY+ Router will be reduced.
The same considerations hold true for the specification IEEE 802.11g: the maximum data rate (54 Mbps) can be reached only if the signal strength is good enough. This means the typical range in an office building may be just 20 m if you insist upon a 54 Mbps throughput, but it will increase to 50 m if a transfer rate of 11 Mbps is acceptable for you.
Precisely because of their higher data rates, 802.11 g devices may be more susceptible to interferences!

5.10 Status Page
The SPEEDY+ HDSPA router features a status page, accessible for any user without need for administrative password. Just enter in your browser the URL for the page: ““https://192.168.1.1/status” or “https://192.168.1.1/status/index.html”
While the configuration web pages shown previously are for configuring the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment, and are accessible only with log-in (you have access if you enter the correct user name and password), the Status Page can be accesses by any user.
As its name suggest, this page is for displaying the current state of the SPEEDY+ router, you can see the current values but you cannot modify them (no changes are allowed). It shows you the essential parameters of the WMOCEAN wireless router, that are available in the web pager “SIM Status” and “System Status” described previously:
Data connection: it may be offline or online. If it is online, it also shows the current IP on the WAN side, such as “172.20.36.180”. Firmware version: the version of the firmware running on the WMOCEAN device, in format “WMOCEAN-x.y.x-network” where the version number xyz may 0.4.2 or 0.5.6 and “network” indicates the type of the mobile network for which it was designed, such as CDMA, GPRS, UMTS, HSDPA or TDD. If you load a new firmware version on your SPEEDY+ equipment, the status page will show the current version. Modem Version: the version of the embedded firmware of the mobile modem of the SPEEDY+ equipment. Security: the state of the SIM card. Normally it should be “unlocked”, if it is “Locked by PIN” it means you must enter the correct PIN code in order to unlock it.
- IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity), identity of the subscriber
- IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identifier). 15-digit number that uniquely identifies an individual mobile terminal wireless device such as the HSDPA modem of SPEEDY+
- Signal Level, displayed with white figures on dark blue background. The two digits indicate
Page 71
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 70
the level of the RF signal for the GSM/GPRS/UMTS/HSDPA network on a scale from zero to
30. The higher the value, the better 3G signal you have.
- Network: the name of the mobile network where the equipment is registered, as transmitted by the mobile carrier
- Registration status: shows if the SIM card of the equipment is registered to the mobile network (online) or not. Of course, if the SIM is not registered, the network-related information cannot be displayed.

7. OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
SPEEDY+ HSDPA was designed for indoor use only, so you should NOT operate it
outdoors.
You must install the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment in closed rooms or enclosures,
where the environment conditions should be:
operating temperature range: from 5 to 50 degrees C relative humidity: from 10 to 85 %, non-condensing
You should avoid dust and prolonged exposure to sun radiation. In addition, SPEEDY+ HSDPA must NOT be used in a flammable or explosive environment, or in locations where toxic or flammable gases may accumulate.
The equipment must be handled with care, to avoid mechanical shocks and blows.
SPEEDY+ HSDPA should not be used in an environment with high level of EMI (electromagnetic interferences) that is in close proximity to high power equipment such as electric motors or heaters. In addition, it should not be placed near copiers, PC monitors, TV sets or other audio-video appliances.
Page 74
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 73
8. APPLICATIONS
a) Wireless gateway/firewall/router using the HSDPA network
SPEEDY+ was designed primary for wireless use, where it connects several computer, a local network or peripheral devices by means of its embedded HSDPA modem. SPEEDY+ acts as a powerful residential gateway, being a compact, all in one box (NAT, PAT, router, firewall), connected to Internet via mobile broadband HSDPA technology.
You may connect to the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment both wireless clients, via its embedded AP, and wired (Ethernet) clients, that is computers and various peripherals, at the same time.
The access to data traffic does no longer require additional investments on equipment or software (router, switch , software, wiring operations). SPEEDY+ HSDPA allows connection to the local network (LAN) via four Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps) ports or via its AP.
These kinds of applications are especially suited for both home and small or medium business network environment, where land connections are not readily available. With SPEEDY+ HSDPA, you get simultaneous voice and high speed data wireless connection.
In addition, temporary events (festivals, sporting competitions, trade fairs and exhibitions) may benefit from the use of a wireless broadband router. Even if the temporary event is located in the heart of the city, getting a wired broadband connection for only 2-3 days makes no economic sense.
Fields of applications may include Advertising & Marketing, Property / Estate Agencies, Logistics, Recruitment, Travel & Hospitality, Healthcare, Media & Broadcasting , Insurance & Finance.
Page 75
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 74
b) Broadband router with wireless local connections
You may use SPEEDY+ without its HSDPA module, connecting instead a cable or DSL or fiber modem to the WAN port of SPEEDY+ . This way, the equipment acts a broadband router with wireless or wired local connection.
Its embedded WiFi (802.11g) Access Points allows immediate radio connection to computers or peripheral devices (such as notebooks, PDA, printers, IP phones, surveillance cameras or other devices equipped with WiFi interfaces).
You no longer need Ethernet cables to connect these devices and have all the advantages provided by the Wireless Access Points!
Still, the four LAN ports are available, and you may combine in different configurations the wired and wireless local connections.
In both home or small business environments SPEEDY+ HSDPA allows flexible, mobile interconnection of desktop and notebook computers, printers and other peripherals such as scanners, playstations for on-line games, and provides web surfing, playing online games, netmeeting, video transmissions, listening to mp3 music, etc
Page 76
WMOCEAN +420 225 371 777 http://www.wmocean.com p. 75
c. Remote video surveillance with camera
With its built-in firmware, SPEEDY+ HSDPA allows easy connection of one or several video surveillance cameras to a remote center, transmitting the still pictures or video stream via its embedded HSDPA modem. The device can take over high-speed imaging inputs from different types of cameras (with USB, Ethernet or WiFi interfaces).
The USB webcams that are compatible with the PWC Linux driver may be connected directly to SPEEDY+ , no additional firmware or software is required. The surveillance and the control of the camera may be performed remotely, from any web browser.

9. Glossary
Access Point - The network hub device or “base station” for a wireless network. An access
point (AP) is a device that allows wireless clients to connect to other wireless clients and it acts as a bridge between several local wireless clients and a another network, such as 3G mobile broadband network or wired Ethernet. SPEEDY+ HSDPA acts as an AP and can be server to as many as 32 WiFi clients (notebooks, desktop PCs with wireless cards or USB adapters, PDAs, wireless peripherals and so on) Broadband - A type of data transmission in which a single medium (radio, cable or fiber optics) carries several channels of data at once. Broadband is also associated with high transfer speed (at least 300 Kbps). HSDPA technology fully qualifies for mobile broadband connection! CDMA – Acronym for Code Division Multiple Access. Advanced communications technology that is a driving force behind 3G wireless networks around the globe. CDMA ensures excellent quality of voice signal, without noise or interferences, high rate of data transmission and permits a uniform distribution of energy in the emitted bandwidth. UMTS makes use of the W-CDMA technology, wideband CDMA. Client – wireless clients are the “mobile terminals” connected to your local WiFi network. These WiFi clients may be notebooks, desktop computers, PDAs, IP phones or other wireless devices. CLIP - Acronym for Calling Line Identity Presentation. This feature allows the ID (phone number) of the caller to be displayed during the call. It is a service of the phone network. For end-users, this service is handy in order to screen incoming calls, prepare the specific response, greeting the caller by name or looking up for missed or unanswered phone calls. SPEEDY+ HSDPA can use the CLIP facility to identify the subscribers who called and route the incoming calls according to their Caller ID. CLIR - Acronym for Calling Line Identification Restriction. Feature that restrict the identification of your caller ID to the other party. This hides your identity from callers with Caller ID feature. You may activate this function on the SPEEDY+ equipment , thus disabling the sending out of Caller ID. DISA – Acronym for Direct Inward System Access. This function allows an outside caller to directly access a local subscriber of the phone exchange by using DTMF codes. The typical application is when you call directly a local subscriber without need for a human operator at the phone exchange. The SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment makes use of DISA-like routing to manage both incoming and outgoing calls without need for a human operator. For example a local subscriber may dial (using DTMF codes) a mobile number via the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment. DTMF - Acronym for Dual Tone Multi Frequency, also known as "touch tone". Advanced method for dialing a number, instead of the older Pulse mode. When you press a key on the keypad a combination of two audio frequencies is sent on the line. DTMF capability is important because it allows access to a wide range of interactive voice applications. The SPEEDY+ equipment uses DTMF dialing to transmit the numbering from local subscribers to the mobile networks. Also, it uses dialing in DTMF mode to ensure phone connections without need for an operator at the PBX. Device name - Also known as DHCP client ID or network name. Some ISP provide the customers with such device names, when using DHCP to assign addresses. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) - This protocol allows a computer (or many computers on your network) to be automatically assigned a single IP address from a DHCP server. DHCP is available on SPEEDY+ HSDPA. DNS – Acronym for Domain Name System (or Service), an Internet service that translates domain names into IP addresses. This allows the Internet hosts to use both addresses type domain name (such as WMOCEAN.com or linux.org), and addresses type IP numbers (for instance 192.17.3.4). The domain name addresses are intended for human users and are automatically converted into IP (numeric) addresses. Because domain names are alphabetic, they are much easier to remember. The Internet however, is really based on IP addresses.

Every time you use a domain name, therefore, a DNS service must translate the name into the corresponding IP address.
DNS Server – computer able to answer to the interrogations in a DNS system. The DNS server maintains a database that includes the host computers with their domain names and the corresponding IP addresses. For instance, if you ask the DNS server for the domain name apex.com, it will return the IP address of the hypothetical company called Apex. DNS servers are linked in their network, so if one DNS server doesn't know how to translate a particular domain name, it asks another one, and so on, until the correct IP address is found. When a user enters a domain name into the Internet browser, the user is sent by the DNS Server to the proper IP address. The DNS server address used by the computers on your home network is the location of the DNS DNS Server Address (Domain Name System) - DNS allows Internet host computers to have a domain name and one or more IP addresses. A DNS server keeps a database of host computers and their respective domain names and IP addresses, so that server your ISP has assigned. Dynamic DNS - service that allows clients connecting to the Internet with a dynamic IP address to be able to use applications that require a static IP address. The Internet Service Provider changes the IP address of the users, but there are applications that work only with static (fixed) IP addresses. Dynamic DNS makes it possible for sites on the Internet to establish connections to you computer without need for tracking the IP address themselves. DDNS is useful both for wired or wireless (such as UMTS) dialup connection where at each connection a new address is assigned, and for DSL services where the address is changed occasionally by the ISP. Domain Name Resolution - The resolving of a domain name. Internet applications don’t communicate with domain names such as google.com or WMOCEAN.com, instead they use IP addresses (for example 193.226.61.95 or 216.239.39.99). Domain Name Resolution is the process (transparent for the user) of converting domain names into corresponding IP addresses. Every operating system has routines that deal with resolution of domain names.
Encryption - This provides wireless data transmissions with a level of security. ESSID - Acronym for Extended Service Set ID. ESSID is one type of SSID (the other being
BSSID). The ESSID is the identifying name of a wireless network. You can use a name that describes the network, such as „PurchasingnetworkA”, „SPEEDY+ _UMTS” or „InternetCafeDoris”. This allows one wireless network to be clearly distinguishable from another. Also, this will ensure that only the users that have configured the same ESSID may access your WiFi network - you must have the same ESSID entered into the gateway and each of its wireless clients. You can also hide ESSID, to ensure that your Access Point is not visible to others. This increase the security – since the Wireless LAN network is invisible from outside, it will be more difficult for potential hackers to find out that there is a WiFi network available. Ethernet - Standard for wired computer networks. Ethernet networks are connected by cables and hubs, and move data around. For wired connections, SPEEDY+ HSDPA provides Ethernet 10/100 ports, four for the local LAN and one for WAN. Firewall - System designed to prevent unauthorized access to or from a private network. The firewall determines which information passes in and out of and prevents anyone outside of your network from accessing your computer without authorization and possibly damaging or viewing your files. Any company with an intranet that allows its workers access to the wider Internet must use a software or hardware firewall to prevent outsiders from accessing its own private data resources and for controlling what outside resources its own users have access to. Here the firewall is software a set of related programs (residing on the gateway server) that protect the resources of the local (internal) network. The firewall works together with a router program and examines every incoming or outgoing data packet to determine whether to forward it toward its destination or reject it. The firewall is installed in a specially designated computer (in this case the SPEEDY+ HSDPA unit) separated from the rest of the network so that no incoming request can get directly at the resources of the local network.

FXS - Acronym for Foreign Exchange Station. The FXS phone interface supplies ring, voltage, and dial tone for a “Station”, that may be an analog phone, a modem, a fax machine, or any analog device of the final user. The FxS interface of the SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment may be used for connection either to an analog trunk of the PBX or directly to a standard fixed phone. FXO - Acronym for Foreign Exchange Office. The Office phone interface connects to the public phone exchange (central office - CO), or a FxS board of the PBX. The FXO device gets power supply from the central battery and disk tone services. The FxO interface of the SPEEDY+ equipment is used to connect the device to a local extension line (local subscriber) of the PBX. Both FxS and FxO interfaces use two wires. Gateway - A network point that manages all the data traffic of your network, as well as to the Internet and connects one network to another. SPEEDY+ is also gateway, since it interfaces between the local networks (wired or wireless) and the HSDPA mobile network or another broadband connection. GRE – Acronym for Generic Routing Encapsulation. GRE is used as a tunneling protocol, which can encapsulate a wide variety of protocol packet types inside IP tunnels. IP tunneling using GRE protocol allows easy creation and expansion of a Virtual Private Network using the 3G mobile network. Idle Time: time value for disconnecting the UMTS dial-up link when there is no more data traffic. If during the specified time interval no data packet is sent on the PPP dial-up connection, then this connection is broken by SPEEDY+ . If you set the time interval to 0 (zero), the dial-up connection will remain always on, even if there is no data traffic. IMEI - Acronym for International Mobile Equipment Identifier. 15-digit number that uniquely identifies an individual mobile terminal wireless device. The device may be a phone, a data terminal, a modem module (like the one inside SPEEDY+ ) etc. The IMEI code consists of TAC (Type Approval Code) that describes the type of the mobile device, FAC (Final Assembly Code) related to final assembly, SNR (Serial Number) which is unique, and a spare digit. Note that while IMSI is subscriber-related, the IMEI is equipment-related. IMEI is world-wide specific for a certain mobile terminal (phone or modem). IMSI – Acronym for International Mobile Subscriber Identity. Unique code number (for all the world) that identifies a mobile subscriber (its SIM card) to the network. 15 digit code, contains information about the module code for the country, the network, identification number for the mobile station (subscriber). Linked to the user account information at the network operator. IMSI resides in the SIM card. While IMEI is related to the mobile phone GSM/HSDPA module, the IMSI code is related to the SIM, if you change the SIM card used by SPEEDY+ you will have another IMSI code. If the HSDPA module of SPEEDY+ detects an active SIM card, it will query (and display) the IMSI code. ISP (Internet Service Provider) - An ISP is a business that allows individuals or businesses to connect to the Internet. Users log on to the Internet using an account with an ISP or Internet Service Provider. ISPs can serve IP addresses dynamically, or assign static (fixed) IP addresses to individual computers. In this case, the Internet provider is the operator of the 3G mobile network. MTU - Acronym for Maximum Transmission Unit. Generally, the size of the largest datagram that can be passed by a layer of a communications protocol (that can be transmitted or received through a logical interface). All messages larger than the MTU will be divided into smaller packets before being sent. In our case MTU is the largest physical packet size, measured in bytes that a network can transmit. The size includes the IP header but does not include the size of any Link Layer headers or framing. Different networks have different values for MTU, which is set by the network administrator. Most networking technologies have a default MTU size: this is 576 for many PPP connections, 1500 for Ethernet networks, 65K for HYPER channel, etc.

NAT - Network Address Translation. NAT is an Internet standard that enables a local-area network (LAN) to use one set of IP addresses for internal traffic and another set of addresses for external traffic. On the gateway, NAT software performs all necessary translations of the IP addresses. There are several purposes for NAT usage: Provides a type of natural firewall by hiding all the internal IP addresses from the Internet. Only the single IP assigned to the router is visible from the Internet. Several computers on the local network to use one IP address, enabling access to the Internet from any computer network without the need to get more IP addresses from the ISP local computers are not directly reachable from the Internet, making them more secure the company can use several internal IP addresses. Since they're used only internally, there is no possibility of conflict with IP addresses used by other companies or organizations. NTP - Acronym for Network Time Protocol. Internet standard protocol used to update the real-time clock in a computer. It assures accurate synchronization to the millisecond of computer clock times in a network of computers. NTP is very useful in packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. In case of SPEEDY+ , if you want to measure the performances of the network, you need accurate, universal time­stamps for the data packets. NTP runs as a continuous background client program on a computer and it sends periodic time requests to servers, obtaining server time stamps and using them to adjust the client's clock. NTP uses UDP port 123 as its transport layer. It is designed particularly to resist the effects of variable latency. There are numerous primary and secondary servers in the Internet that are synchronized to the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) via radio, satellite or modem. For more information, visit www.ntp.org. PBX - Acronym for Private Branch eXchange. The PBX is a small, enterprise version of the larger central switching office of the phone company. A PBX is a private telephone switch. It is connected to groups of trunks (junctions) from one or more central offices and to all of the telephones at the location (subscribers, local extensions) served by the PBX. Current exchanges are in fact PABX, automated PBX, which don’t require a human operator to route the calls. The SPEEDY+ HSDPA equipment was designed to work together with a PABX with analog trunks to route the calls. SPEEDY+ may be connected to the PBX either on a trunk line or on a subscriber line (local extension). PSTN - Acronym for Public Switched Telephone Network (s). This is the classic international fixed telephony system based on copper wires that carry voice and data. Analog (mostly) or digital technology is used to provide voice grade services for the users that access that network via an analog interface. The SPEEDY+ device connects to a PBX that has trunks going to the PSTN, so the equipment performs as an interface between the mobile network (GSM/GPRS/UMTS) and the PSTN. PPP - Acronym for Point-to-Point Protocol. Network protocol widely used to connect computers to the Internet. Works on the data link layer of the OSI model. PPP sends the TCP/IP packets of the gateway to a server that puts them onto the Internet. It is more stable than the older SLIP protocol and provides error-checking features. PPP is the Internet standard for dial-up modem connections, no matter if they are phone line modems of high-speed UMTS wireless devices such as the embedded HSDPA modem of SPEEDY+ . PPPoE - Acronym for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. A method of secure data transmission, PPPoE using Ethernet to connect to an ISP. The PPP traffic is sent over Ethernet to the Internet through a common broadband medium. The users have the appearance of "dialing" the Internet, but their computers are in fact always connected. PPPoE supports a broad range of existing applications and services, from authentication, accounting and secure access to configuration management. SPEEDY+ supports on the WAN side either PPP or PPPoE connection.

RIP - Acronym for Routing Information Protocol. RIP for IP is a distance-vector routing protocol, which is the main dynamic routing protocol used in small or medium-sized IP internetworks.For dynamic routing, SPEEDY+ HSDPA supports protocols RIP v2 and OSPF.
Routing -The process of determining and prescribing the path or method to be used for establishing connections and forwarding data packets. In a network, a 'routing switch' is a device that combines the functions of a switch, which forwards data by looking at a physical device address, and a router, which forwards packets by locating a next hop address. Each host with a router in the network uses the routing table information to determine the next host to route a packet to for a specified destination. SPEEDY+ performs as a router for the wired or wireless local network where it is connected. It can perfom both static routing (with fixed, pre-defined routes) and dynamic routing. Dynamic routing is more complex than static routing, but it provides several benefits. It ensures scalability and adaptability. The routes are dynamic, interactive, permanently updated. Routers learn about the network topology by communicating with other routers so it may select a better route, optimized for each time period. The SPEEDY+ equipment supports different protocols for dynamic routing, such as RIP v 2 for distance vector routing and and OSPF for link state routing.
S-HTTP - Acronym for SECURE HYPERTEXT TRANSFER PROTOCOL. A secure way of transferring information over the Web, by using an application-level encryption scheme. S­HTTP is an extension of the normal HTTP with security enhancements for WWW-based commerce. Web pages that use S-HTTP have a URL starting with https://. Typically HTTP data is sent over TCP/IP port 80, but HTTPS data is sent over port 443. The standard was developed for secure transactions, and uses 40-bit encryption ("weak" encryption) or 128-bit ("strong" encryption). The HTTPS standard supports certificates and allows encryption, digital signatures, authentication, or any combination of these. The S-HTTP type of transaction security is more secure than a user ID and password, thus it is mostly used by financial institutions (for example for credit-card purchases over the Web). Since SPEEDY+ provides ensures S-HTTP, this means a higher degree of security for you. SMS - Acronym for Short Message Service; means the transmission of short text messages to and from cellular phones. The messages must be text only (no images or graphics) and not longer than 160 alpha-numeric characters. Operators of Mobile Phone Networks use a spare data channel to send SMS messages. You may send SMS messages to another mobile subscriber, the mobile operator can send you phone settings over-the-air or commercial companies may send dedicated content to your mobile terminal. The embedded firmware allows SPEEDY+ equipment to send and receive SMS (via mobile network) from the computer connected to it. Static packet filter - One of the simplest and least expensive forms of firewall protection is known as static packet filtering. With static packet filtering, each packet entering or leaving the network is checked and either passed or rejected depending on a set of user-defined rules. Dealing with each individual packet, the firewall applies its rule set to determine which packet to allow or disallow. The static packet filtering firewall examines each packet based on the following criteria: * Source IP address * Destination IP address * TCP/UDP source port * TCP/UDP destination port Static packet filtering is easy to implement and configure and does not use a lot of resources, but its efficiency is limited. Basic packet filtering firewalls are susceptible to IP spoofing, where an intruder tries to gain unauthorized access to computers by sending messages to a computer with an IP address indicating that the message is coming from a trusted host. Another shortcoming is that this form of firewall rarely provides sufficient logging or reporting capabilities.

SPI - Acronym for Stateful packet inspection. The embedded SPEEDY+ firewall also performs stateful packet inspection. This approach examines the contents of packets rather than just filtering them. It takes into account not only the addresses of the data packets but also the contents and the state of the connection. Stateful means they take into account the state of the connections they handle so that, for example, a legitimate incoming packet can be matched with the outbound request for that packet and allowed in. In addition, an incoming packet masquerading as a response can be blocked if the firewall knows that the outbound request is in fact nonexistent. Rather than controlling the individual data packets. SPI uses smart rules, thus enhancing the filtering process and controlling the network session. Static packet filtering cannot stop DOS attacks But SPI closes ports until legitimate users request them opened so it prevents certain kinds of Denial of Service attacks. Since SPI firewalls compare packets to previous packets, the packets that violate the rules can be dropped. SSID - Service set identifier, the name of a wireless local area network (WLAN). A code attached to all data packets on a wireless network for identification purposes. Besides identifying each packet, SSID serves also to identify a group of wireless network devices used in a given "Service Set". This ID allows multiple wireless Ethernet networks to be active at the same time in the same location. You may allow or disable the “public SSID”, which is set on the access point and broadcast to all wireless devices in range. If you disable the automatic broadcasting of SSID feature the security of the network is increased, people who don’t know this ID cannot connect to the WiFi LAN. WEP - Acronym for Wired Equivalent Privacy, encryption protocol for WiFi networks. As its name says, WEP was designed to provide for WLAN a level of privacy equivalent to that of an unsecured wired LAN. WEP is used at the two lowest layers, the data link and physical layer. To read a WEP encryption on file you need a secret key or password to decrypt it. There are two main types of WEP encryption, symmetric and respectively asymmetric WEP (public key WEP encryption). and WEP encryption. WEP encryption standard employs 40-bit encryption and a 128-bit WEP encryption option. Remember that only when using the 128-bit keys WEP encryption it ensures the same level of security as the unencrypted wired Ethernet. WEP is NOT an industrial strength security algorithm. It is vulnerable because of relatively short IVs and keys that remain static.
