3G
The router allows you to insert a 3G/HSDPA card to its USB slot, enabling you to use a 3G/HSDPA,
UMTS, EDGE, GPRS, or GSM Internet connection, makes downstream rates of to 14.4 Mbps*.

Select the profile port
as
3G
.
iBurst:
Enable or Disable the router’s iBurst functionality.

Mode:
Two methods are provided, that is,
Volume-based
and
Time-based
.
Volume-based:
The volume amount you can use per month.
Only Download:
Only make statistics of Download Traffic.
Only Upload:
Only make statistics of Upload Traffic.
Download and Upload
: Make statistics of both Download and Upload Traffic.
Time-based:
The hours you can use per month.
Over usage allowance action:
If the online time or traffic you have used exceeds the usage allowance
you set. The system will do the followings operations.
Save the statistics to ROM:
Choose the time interval for saving statistics. You can choose to save for
Every one hour
or
Disable
the function
.
Time Schedule:
Specify time duration for your 3G WAN connection.
Mode:
select your wanted mode of 3G operation from the drop-down menu.
TEL No.:
The dial string to make a GPRS / 3G user internetworking call. It may be provided by your
mobile service provider.
APN:
An APN is similar to a URL on the WWW, it is what the unit makes a GPRS / UMTS call. The
service provider is able to attach anything to an APN to create a data connection. Requirements for APN
assignment varies between different service providers. Most service providers have an internet portal
which they connect a DHCP Server to, giving you access to the internet i.e. Some 3G operators use the
APN ‘internet’ for their portal. The default value of APN is “internet”.
Username:
Enter the username provided by your service provider.
Password:
Enter the password provided by your service provider.
Auth. Protocol:
Manually specify CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) or PAP
(Password Authentication Protocol) if you know which authentication type the server is using (when
acting as a client), or the authentication type you want the clients to use when they are connecting to you
(when acting as a server). When using PAP, the password is sent unencrypted, while CHAP encrypts the
password before sending, and also allows for challenges at different periods to ensure that an intruder
has not replaced the client.
MTU:
Maximum Transmission Unit. The size of the largest datagram (excluding media-specific headers)
that IP will attempt to send through the interface.
PIN:
PIN stands for Personal Identification Number. A PIN code is a numeric value used in certain
systems as a password to gain access, and authentication. In mobile phones a PIN code locks the SIM
card until you enter the correct code. If you enter the PIN code incorrectly into the phone 3 times in a row,
then the SIM card will be blocked and a PUK code will be required from your network / service provider to
unlock it.
Connection:
Always On:
The router will make UMTS/GPRS call when starting up. Enabling Always On, will give
you an option of Keep Alive.
Keep Alive:
Set Enable to keep the router on line and prevent to be disconnected by the ISP when
they think there is no activity on the line.

Connect to Demand:
If you want to make UMTS/GPRS call only when there is a packet requesting
access to the Internet (i.e. when a program on your computer attempts to access the Internet). In this
mode, you must set Idle Timeout value at same time. Enabling Connect on Demand will give you an
option of Idle Timeout.
Idle Timeout:
Auto-disconnect the connection when there is no activity on this call for a
predetermined period of time. The default value is 10 min(s).
Obtain DNS Automatically:
Select this checkbox to use DNS.
Primary DNS/ Secondary DNS:
Enter the IP addresses of the DNS servers. The DNS servers are
passed to the DHCP clients along with the IP address and the subnet mask.
Note: If you don’t know how to set these values and please keep them untouched.

ADSL Mode
Connect Mode
: This mode will automatically detect your ADSL line code,
ADSL2+, ADSL2, AnnexM2
and AnnexM2+, ADSL, All.
Please keep the factory setting unless ADSL is detected as the symptom of
synchronization problem.
Modulation:
It will automatically detect capability of your ADSL line mode. Please keep the factory
setting unless ADSL is detected as the symptom of synchronization problem.
Profile Type:
Please keep the factory settings unless ADSL is detected as the symptom of low link rate
or unstable problems. You may need to change the profile setting to reach the best ADSL line rate, it
depends on the different DSLAM and location.
Activate Line:
Aborting (false) your ADSL line and making it active (true) again for taking effect with
setting of
Connect Mode
.
Coding Gain:
It reduces router’s transmit power which will effect to router’s downstream performance.
Higher the gain will increase the downstream rate but it sometimes causes unstable ADSL line. The
configurable ADSL coding gain is from 0 dB to 7dB, or automatic.

System
Here are the items within the
System
section:
Time Zone, Remote Access, Firmware Upgrade,
Backup/Restore, Restart
and
User Management.
Time Zone
The router does not have a real time clock on board; instead, it uses the Simple Network Time Protocol
(SNTP) to get the current time from an SNTP server outside your network. Choose your local time zone,
click
Enable
and click the
Apply
button. After a successful connection to the Internet, the router will
retrieve the correct local time from the SNTP server you have specified. If you prefer to specify an SNTP
server other than those in the list, simply enter its IP address as shown above. Your ISP may provide an
SNTP server for you to use.
Daylight Saving
is also known as
Summer Time Period.
Many places in the world
adapt it during
summer time to move one hour of daylight from morning to the evening in local standard time. Check
Automatic
box to auto set your local time.
Resync Period
(in minutes) is the periodic interval the router will wait before it re-synchronizes the
router’s time with that of the specified SNTP server. In order to avoid unnecessarily increasing the load
on your specified SNTP server you should keep the poll interval as high as possible – at the absolute
minimum every few hours or even days.
