Welcome
Within minutes, all of the computers in your home can be sharing a wireless
connection to the Internet through the 3G/UMTS mobile network.
Tip: To achieve the best possible reception, check the signal strength (the more
bars the better the reception) on the LCD on your Ovation. You may find that
placing your Ovation near a window provides the best reception.
Simple setup
Your Ovation is designed to provide you with a quick and troublefree
installation. You can install, set up, and be connected to the Internet in just a
few short steps. The webbased interface lets you set up your Ovation from
almost any personal computer, including Windows, Macintosh, or Linux, using
an Internet browser (e.g. Internet Explorer 6.0 or Netscape 6.2). Once you are
set up, you can review and enable customized wireless security settings.
Instant protection
Your Ovation supports Network Address Translation (NAT). This network service
hides the computers in your network so they can't be found or directly accessed
by anyone outside of your network. Also included is a true firewall that blocks
all incoming traffic and allows all outgoing traffic by default.
Additional security
Disabled by default, your Ovation supports both Wired Equivalent Protection
(WEP) and WiFi Protected Access (WPAPSK) to protect your network data.
Parents can set up content filtering to monitor or restrict Internet access.
Security logs keep you aware of potential security risks and attempted access.
You can view logs online.
Stay in touch
You can use your Ovation to send and receive SMS text messages. The LCD on
the front of the device lets you know when you have new messages.
Important note
To protect your network from unauthorized access, and to make it more
difficult for hackers to analyze your data, please check the WLAN security
settings and enable either WEP or WPAPSK encryption on your Ovation.
