Microsoft Windows Operating System Patches
IP Wireless Broadband Modems can work at high data speeds, to achieve these rates may
require a Windows Operating System patch to be applied. The installation software will
determine if any operating system patch is needed and it is recommended that the Windows
operating system patch is applied if required.
At the end of the Windows Operating System patch installation, a window will be displayed
stating that the computer needs to be rebooted for the patch to take effect, select “No”. You
will reboot the PC at then end of the installation process.
Windows Internet Configuration Setting
Again, due to the high data speeds that the P1D Wireless Broadband Modem can work at, in
order to achieve these rates will require that some TCP/IP settings are modified to take full
advantage of this high rate.
These settings will only be used by the operating system the next time the computer is
rebooted.
At the very end of the Connection Software installation it is advised that you reboot the
computer so that the changes applied to the computer during the installation can take effect.
