Overview
This chapter covers the steps for configuring the Router for broadband WAN and HSDPA/3G/UMTS or GPRS
service. To configure the Router for HSDPA/3G/UMTS or GPRS service only, go to “Chapter 5: Setting up the
Wireless-G Router for HSDPA/3G/UMTS or GPRS Service.” To configure the Router for broadband WAN service
only, go to “Chapter 6: Setting up the Wireless-G Router for Broadband WAN Service Only.”

•
your Vodafone Mobile Connect Card
•
the SIM card for your Vodafone Mobile Connect Card
•
your Vodafone Mobile Connect Card Services information
•
broadband modem
•
settings for your broadband Internet connection type.
The information about your Vodafone Mobile Connect Card was included with your Vodafone Mobile Connect Card
package. If you do not have this information, contact Vodafone Customer Service (refer to “Appendix J: Contact
Information” for Vodafone contact information).
IMPORTANT:
If you do NOT have your Vodafone Mobile Connect Card and SIM card, you cannot
configure the Router for HSDPA/3G/UMTS or GPRS service. However, you can configure the
Router for broadband WAN service; for instructions, proceed to “Chapter 6: Setting up the
Wireless-G Router for Broadband WAN Service Only.”
IMPORTANT:
If you do NOT have broadband WAN service, then you cannot configure the Router
