This document describes how to install and use your Expedience residential subscriber unit
(RSU) to obtain wireless high-speed Internet access. You can connect your RSU to a computer
or to a small office/home office (SOHO) local area network (LAN) through a hub, switch, or
router.

EFORE
YOU
BEGIN
•
Make sure your computer is equipped with an Ethernet network interface card (NIC).
•
The Ethernet cable that is supplied with your RSU plugs into any standard Ethernet NIC.
The NIC is not provided with the RSU, but you can purchase a NIC at most computer
and electronics stores.
•
Find an appropriate location for your RSU.
•
For best results, place the RSU in a room near an outside window on the first or second
floor of your home or office.
•
You need to locate the RSU within 6 feet of a wall outlet. The RSU uses a standard power
supply and can sit on a desktop or shelf.
•
Your RSU comes with a category-5 Ethernet cable approximately 10 feet long. If you
choose to place the RSU further than 10 feet from your computer, you need to purchase
a longer, standard Ethernet cable.
