Fleet Broadband Uplink:
To connect a FleetBroadband terminal to the SBS using D-
Link DUB E100 USB to Ethernet converter:
►
Choose Fleet Broadband from the “Connection type” drop-
down menu.
►
Choose your terminal’s model from the “Fleet Broadband
terminal” drop-down menu.
►
Type the Access Point Name in the “APN” field (for
example, bgan.inmarsat.com).
►
Choose the WAN port interface and set up the addressing
of the WAN port as described above.
Note that the Thrane & Thrane Sailor terminals do not allow
their connection state to be managed from another device, so
you should set these terminals to connect automatically. JRC
terminals can be managed by the SBS and the SBS will
configure the terminal for IP and initiate the connection
automatically when the “CONNECT” button is clicked.
Note that when using the JRC FB250 it is advisable to
override the automatic DNS by entering your provider’s DNS
server’s IP number (or Inmarsat’s DNS: 172.30.66.7)
manually.
4.
Once all settings have been correctly entered click on “SAVE
CHANGES”.
Now this uplink setting can be selected from the “Uplink” menu on
the CONNECT page.
XI. Changing the Uplink Transport Protocol
The SBS is configured to use either UDP or TCP/IP as uplink
protocols (data channel from the SBS to the internet). Although the
default is TCP/IP which will function over any type of uplink channel
there are two advantages of switching to UDP.
1. Web browsing will be quicker as there is less handshaking
needed.
