THERNET

Ethernet communications are established by connecting your

computer Ethernet LAN port directly to the Satellite Terminal LAN
port via the supplied Ethernet cable and monitoring the MMI for the

connection.

USB

USB communications are established by connecting your computer

USB port directly to the Satellite Terminal LAN port via the supplied

USB cable and monitoring the MMI for the connection.

ISDN

ISDN communications are established by connecting your computer

ISDN port directly to the Satellite Terminal LAN port via the supplied

ISDN cable (same as the Ethernet cable) and monitoring the MMI for
the connection.

With the ISDN interface you can make voice or data calls and can

perform limited MMI functions. Only one terminal at a time may
make a call since only one B channel is supported per Terminal in

the BGAN system. However, up to four ISDN phones may be utilized

with the one ISDN connection. Note that this limit is imposed by the
current limit function in order to protect Ethernet devices in case

they are accidentally connected to the ISDN port.

The Wi-Fi function is used in access point mode. You can use the
MMI to configure (at least) the following parameters:

ƒ

 

Wireless LAN interface on/off. The default is off.

ƒ

 

Network name. The default is “BGAN” but the user can
change it.

ƒ

 

Channel number. This controls the channel number (1-14)

used by the access point. Depending on the country only
certain subsets of these channels may be used (4 options:
