Additional settings are available at
Advanced Settings > WAN > GPS

Setting the GPS Mode
GPS mode determines whether the location fix is done:
●
Once (“one-time”), or
●
Periodically (“continuous”) — used, for example, for turn-by-turn (TBT) navigation applications.
To set the GPS mode:
1.
Make sure you’re logged in to the home page.
2.
Click
Advanced Settings >
WAN > GPS
.
3.
Select the
Enable GPS
check box if it is not selected.
4.
Select one of the following:
±
One-time
— A single fix is used. Use this option if you’ll be using your device at the same
location.
±
Continuous
— Fixes are obtained on a regular basis; also known as auto-tracking. Useful
for turn-by-turn (TBT) navigation applications, such as driving directions.
Tip:
If you want to get a fix immediately, click
Get fix now

The performance setting determines the amount of time the device waits for a satellite to be
discovered when obtaining GPS information.

UPnP (Universal Plug and Play)
UPnP provides simple and robust connectivity among consumer electronics, intelligent
appliances, and mobile devices from many different vendors. (For more information, see
www.upnp.org
.)
