Connecting to your ADSL or 3G service.
The ADSL services are provided by a variety of network service providers in each country. In
many cases the network service provider will be your local telephone supplier.
Network service providers have a variety of procedures for approving customer premises
equipment for connection to their network. The connection interface in the Mako has been
developed to connect to the majority of network service providers. If you have any queries your
reseller will be happy to confirm whether the Mako is approved by your network service provider
for connection to their telecommunications network.
"
The ADSL service is carried on a conventional analogue telephone line specially adjusted to carry
ADSL traffic in addition to voice calls. At your network premises a Filter is required to connect to
the line to split the digital ADSL traffic from the analogue voice traffic.
Alternate installations may incorporate a splitter within the telephone jack point to achieve the
same result, or, when the line is dedicated to ADSL use, no filtering (and no voice channel) at all.
Please ensure that only the ADSL channel is connected to the Mako whichever configuration has
been used.
"
Your ADSL Network Provider and/or Telecom can provide you with a Manual which covers all
aspects of connecting to the ADSL service. Please refer to this for any additional information you
require.

Under normal conditions there is nothing which requires your intervention. The Mako is
designed to detect many forms of internal malfunction and reset itself to correct operation.
In the worst case this may require it to download a fresh configuration from the Mako Networks’
Central Command Servers. You can force a reload by a simple power off and on of the unit.
Changes to the configuration of the Mako cannot be made on the unit itself. These are
performed by securely accessing and using the convenient menus on the Central Management
web site www.makonetworks.com.
