3 QUICK START

3.1 Basic Setup



Your router requires an internet source. Insert a supported USB or ExpressCard modem, connect a Cable or DSL

modem to the Ethernet port (this requires a settings change because the Ethernet port is not set as WAN by
default; see

―Ethernet Port Configuration‖ in

Network Settings

→ WiFi / Local Networks

), or connect to an

available WiFi source (see

Internet

→ WiFi as WAN Settings

to enable WiFi as WAN). For Failover/Failback

functionality, you will need at least two of these sources (for example: one Ethernet source and one USB modem).



Connect the 12v DC power adapter to the router and a power source. Flip the power switch to the ON position; this

should illuminate the green Power Status LED.

Data Modem Not Included. This Product Requires an Activated Data Modem or Phone with Data Plan for Full Functionality. See your Cellular/3G/4G Service Provider for Details

on Coverage and Data Plan Options
