wXa-213 Optimizer Quick Start Guide
The RedPort Optimizer is a satellite Wi-Fi router that combines a powerful
satellite data router with voice capabilities, including a full PBX. It is more than
just a voice device. It gives you everything you need to create a local voice and
data network with your satellite device. Built-in firewall protects your satellite
data stream from unwanted traffic and prevents high airtime bills.
Optimizer prevents bill shock in the following ways:
• By default, its built-in firewall blocks all Internet activity except RedPort
Compression Email services, XGate phone, and RedPort compression
web browsing.
• Using the local WiFi network, you can assign unlimited phone extensions
and allow simultaneous calls, texting, and email between users - without
using your satellite airtime. It all goes over the local Wi-Fi network.
• Using the RedPort VoIP service, you can make voice calls for considerably
less than traditional satellite phone voice rates. These VoIP calls consume
approximately 15 minutes of talk time for each Mb of data.
