Following are the physical characteristics of the Surfer Modem.
The light (LED) on the top back of the unit gives you an indication
of Surfer’s operational status. To provide you a wireless
connection to the Internet, Surfer connects to Base Stations. Base
Stations are the Service Provider’s wireless equipment including
antennas that are placed all around the coverage area.
When the light blinks, Surfer is trying to synchronize with a Base
Station. When the light is constant, Surfer has acquired
synchronization with a Base Station. If the light is flashing quickly,
this means Surfer is transmitting data to the Base Station.
The back of the unit is where you plug in the AC power adapter,
which is connected to a power outlet, and the Ethernet cable, which
is connected to your computer. There is no power button; when
you plug the AC power adapter in, the unit comes on. The proper
operating temperature of the Modem is 5-40° C.
Caution!
Do not attempt to take the Modem apart. This may
damage the Modem and void the Manufacturer’s warranty.
