Important notice
Concerning the security measures and
firewall functionality of the product
The Internet is a convenient tool that can be used to
collect information available anywhere in the world
on websites and to exchange messages via e-mail.
However, it does include the risk of unauthorized
access to your PC.
When you maintain a constant connection to the
Internet or have a server in place, in particular, you
need to understand the risk of unauthorized access
and utilize security measures. The product is equipped
with a firewall function as a security measure but new
unauthorized access methods and loopholes (security
holes) are constantly being discovered and thus
no completely infallible prevention method exists.
We would like you to understand that an Internet
connection always includes risk and thus strongly
recommend that you constantly obtain the latest
information and implement security measures as
your own responsibility.
Concerning billing
When the product is used with a measured-rate line
service (for example: the 3G mobile phone network)
please ensure that you thoroughly understand the auto-
outgoing call function prior to use. Whenever the product
is connected to the Internet or a LAN it monitors all the
data sent by the software on your PC (for example: e-mail
software or Web browser) and the addresses of the data
being transferred via the LAN. The inclusion of any other
address than from the LAN can result in auto-outgoing
calls to the line taking place in accordance with the preset
configurations.
If an incorrect configuration is set or you forget to
disconnect the line the software or equipment may
send periodic packets which can then result in
unexpected communication charges and/or provider
connection fees.
Please ensure to check the communication record and
verify whether any unintended communications have
taken place. In addition, it is strongly recommended that
you periodically check the Yamaha network peripheral
equipment website (http://www.yamaha.com/products/
en/network/) to obtain the latest information on the
configurations and revisions of the product.
Unexpected communication charges may occur
when you:
• start using the product;
• change any provider connection settings of the product;
• install new software on your PC;
• connect to the network with a new PC, network
equipment, or peripheral equipment;
• update the firmware of the product; or
• perform any different operations than usual or sense a
difference in the communication response.
Notes
• After cancelling/changing your provider contract please
ensure to delete or reconfigure the connection configuration
of the product. Failure to observe this could result in
unexpected charges from your telephone carrier or provider.
• Unexpected communication charges could occur according
to the status (change in access point, maintenance, error,
etc.) of the provider side. Please ensure to pay constant
attention to any notifications you receive from your
provider.
Control of the cumulative access period
of the product
When the product is connected to a measured-rate line service
(for example: the 3G mobile phone network) outgoing
restrictions can be set that are based on accumulative send/
receive data and the cumulative connection period. This
function is based on accumulative send/receive data and
cumulative connection period calculated by the product
and will not necessarily correspond to the different billing
calculation methods used due to factors such as service
discounts and communication period calculation methods that
are unique to the provider concerned.
The outgoing restriction function may not therefore always
work as intended in actual use. If greater accuracy is required
you will need to conduct tests over a certain period of time to
check for any discrepancies.
