Chapter 2: Using the Configuration Manager 5 1 Getting Started The Model 4530 package contains the 3G+ Modem/Router, a 12Vdc 1.0A Power Cube, this Quick Start flyer, and a CD that contains additional documentation and warranty information. If anything is missing or damaged, please contact Zoom Customer Support or whoever provided the Modem/Router. Before installing the 3G+ Modem/Router you will need a SIM card for the built-in 3G+ modem. This SIM card may have been provided to you by your service provider or you may need to purchase one. To use the Modem/Router for both data and voice, you will need a SIM that supports both data and voice. If you just want to use the Modem/Router for Internet access, a SIM that only supports data will work. Where to Go Next If you have already followed the steps in the Quick Start to install your Model 4530 3G+ Modem/Router with Phone Port and want to learn how to: ¾ Add additional wireless devices to your network, go to Chapter 4: Connecting Devices Wirelessly to the Modem/Router. ¾ Learn about the Modem/Router’s voice features including viewing a list of incoming, outgoing or missed calls, or setting up advanced voice features like call forwarding, call waiting, or speed dialing, go to Chapter 5: Understanding your Modem/Router’s Voice Features. ¾ Use Model 4530 for text messaging, go to Chapter 6: Working with Text Messages. ¾ Use Model 4530’s advanced routing features, go to Chapter 7: Using the Modem/Router’s Advanced Features. Here you can learn about features such as setting the Modem/Router up for online gaming, changing the default wireless settings including security, backing up your Modem/Router’s configuration and setting up scheduling rules to limit when the Modem/Router may be used. If you have not done the initial setup of your 3G+ Modem/Router with Phone Port, continue on to Chapter 2: Installing the Hardware.
6 Modem/Router with Wireless-N User Manual 2 Installing the Hardware This chapter explains installing Model 4530 hardware. Before installing the hardware you will need a SIM card to use the Modem/Router’s cellular modem. If you want to use the Modem/Router for both voice and data you will need a SIM card that supports voice and data. If you just want to use the Modem/Router for data, then you will need a SIM card that at least supports data. To Install Model 4530 follow these steps: 1 Place the Modem/Router near a computer to be used for setup. This computer needs an Ethernet (LAN) port. 2 Turn off the computer. 3 Attach the antenna to the Modem/Router if the antenna isn’t already attached. (Remove the antenna from the package. Place the end of the detachable antenna on the open antenna connection port and rotate the antenna clockwise by hand until it no longer turns easily. It may take many turns before the antenna is completely connected). Move the antenna into an upright orientation. The antenna should snap into place. 4 Insert the SIM card into the slot on the back of the modem as shown below. You should hear the SIM card click into place. 5 Connect one end of the supplied Ethernet cable to any of the computer’s Ethernet ports and the other end to any of the Modem/Router‘s LAN ports. 6 Plug the supplied power cube into the Modem/Router, Router and then into a power outlet. The Modem/Router has completed powering up when the Status light starts blinking. Important: Use only the power cube shipped with the Modem/Router. Other power cubes may damage the device.
Chapter 2: Using the Configuration Manager 7 7 Check that the Signal Strength light has changed from red to green or amber. If the light remains red please go to Troubleshooting your Internet Connection. A red light means that the Modem/Router can not talk to the mobile broadband network. A green light means you have strong signal, and an amber light means you have a weak signal. If your light is amber, you may try repositioning the antenna or moving the unit to another location. 8 Turn on the computer. An Ethernet (LAN) LED on your Modem/Router’s front panel should light up sometimes, corresponding to the Ethernet (LAN) port you used. If it doesn’t light up, please see the Troubleshooting Tips in the User Manual on the CD. Now continue on to Chapter 3: Using the Modem/Router’s Configuration Manager to configure the Modem/Router. Resetting the Modem/Router to the Factory Configuration In the unlikely event that you need to reset the Modem/Router to the factory default configuration, insert the blunt end of a paper clip into the RESET hole on the front panel of the Modem/Router. Hold the clip in place for ten (10) seconds.
8 Modem/Router with Wireless-N User Manual 3 Using the Modem/Router’s Configuration Manager The Modem/Router includes a built-in Install Wizard that walks you through configuring the Modem/Router’s software. For most users running the Install Wizard is all that is needed to configure the Modem/Router. If you are experienced with networking devices and their configuration, you may prefer to use the Advanced configuration program to tailor the Modem/Router's configuration to your needs. In that case go to Using the Configuration Manager's Advanced Program on page 81. Launching the Modem/Router's Configuration Manager To launch the Configuration Manager, please follow these steps: 1 If you haven't already done so, plug the supplied Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port on the Modem/Router’s back panel and into your computer’s Ethernet port. 2 Turn on your Modem/Router first, then your computer. Once the computer is on, launch the computer’s Web browser. 3 In the Web browser address bar, type the Modem/Router's default IP address, http://192.168.2.1 and then click Enter.

You may want to move the antenna to optimize signal strength; putting the antenna in a vertical position normally gives the best performance. You may also want to try changing the location of your router, for example, by moving the router closer to a window. If your Signal Strength Light is amber or green that means you are connected to the mobile broadband network but most likely your mobile broadband settings are wrong. If your Signal Strength light is green or amber please try the following: ¾ If you used auto-configure to detect your service provider, the Modem/Router may have used the wrong settings for your provider. Auto-configure can only detect your service provider, it can not detect the actual settings. Once it detects your provider it tries the most common setting for that provider. To check if this is the problem, run the setup wizard again. When you get to the Setup 3G+ page select Manual. Select your country and then select your service provider. If you have multiple settings for your service provider you will need to run the wizard again until you have tried each setting. If none of the predefined settings work, contact your service provider and ask if they can provide you with your APN, Dialed Number, Account, Password, and Pin Code. Some of these settings are optional and your service provider may not need them. ¾ If your Signal Strength light is amber, you may want to move the antenna to optimize signal strength; putting the antenna in a vertical position normally gives the best performance. You may also want to try changing the location of your router, for example, by moving the router closer to a window. If you are still having problems connecting to the Internet please contact Zoom Technical Support as described in Appendix C: Registering Your Product and Getting Help.

For instructions, please refer to WPS Configuration on page 32. We recommend you set WPA2/WPA security unless you know that you will be connecting devices to your network that support only WEP. If you know you have some devices that only support WEP, go to WEP Configuration on page 40. Otherwise continue to WPA2/WPA Configuration. WPA2/WPA Configuration Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an encryption method that offers a stronger security standard than WEP. Important! If you choose to configure your Modem/Router using either WPA2 or WPA encryption, then you must configure all devices on your wireless network with the same WPA encryption method and shared key. You can configure WPA2 or WPA encryption using the Wireless Setting Page of the Configuration Manager's Advanced program. 13 In the Authentication drop down bar select WPA – PSK/WPA2 – PSK. If you know all your devices support WPA2-PSK you can select it instead. 14 In the Preshare Key field enter a value for the key. The maximum value is 42 characters. The minimum value is 8 characters.
15 Write down this passphrase and put it where you can find it – on the bottom of the case, for instance. 16 Click Save. If you are connected wirelessly to the travel Modem/Router you will lose the connection as soon as you click Save. When you re-establish your wireless connection you will be prompted for the preshared key that you just entered. You must enter this key to be able to connect to the Travel Modem/Router. 17 Now you need to set up each of your wireless devices with the Preshared Key that you entered. See Establishing your Wireless Network on page 26 for instructions on connecting devices to the Modem/Router. WEP Configuration Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a basic encryption method that does not offer the security strength of WPA or WPA2. Use this method only if some of your network's wireless devices, such as a gaming console, do not support WPA2/WPA. Important! If you choose to configure your Modem/Router using WEP encryption, then you must configure all devices on your wireless network with the same WEP encryption method and key. You can configure WEP encryption using the Wireless Setting Page of the Configuration Manager's Advanced program. 18 In the Encryption drop down bar select WEP. 19 In the WEP KEY 1 box you have the choice of entering either a 64-bit key or a 128-bit key. If you want to use a 64-bit key enter 13 hex characters. (Hex characters are the numbers 0-9, and the characters A-F.) If you want to use a 128-bit key enter 26 Hex characters. A 64-bit key provides slightly faster performance while a 128-bit key provides slightly better security. We recommend using a 64-bit key. 20 Write down this key and put it where you can find it – on the bottom of the Modem/Router case, for instance. 21 Click Save. If you are connected wirelessly to the Modem/Router you will lose the connection as soon as you click Save. When you re-establish your wireless connection you will be prompted for the key that you just entered. You must enter this key to be able to connect to the Modem/Router. 22 Now you need to set up each of your wireless devices with the Key that you entered. See Establishing your Wireless Network on page 26 for instructions on connecting devices to the Modem/Router. The Change Password Page You can use this page to change your login password. To view or change configuration settings, you must enter a password. Your Modem/Router has a default
password (admin) that was set by the factory and that you used to access the Configuration Manager initially. To safeguard your configuration, particularly if you make changes, we recommend that you change the login password. Note: If you forget the new password, you won't have access to the Configuration Manager and will need to restore the device to its factory settings thus losing any changes you made to your Modem/Router's configuration. To avoid this problem, we recommend that you write the new password and save it in a convenient location. Configuring Forwarding Rules If you are using your Modem/Router for gaming, you may need to make changes to the Modem/Router’s firewall setting for the game to work. This is done by setting up a DMZ or virtual server, or using port triggering so that the modem’s firewall won’t block the other players from your system during your gaming. The main difference between the three methods is the amount of access someone has to your system. A virtual server will allow access to your computer or gaming station on certain ports. A port is a channel that is used by applications (such as games) for communication. For example, the directions for the game you want to play over the Internet might tell you to open up port 6000. Port triggering works by sensing when data is sent out on the predetermined outgoing port and then automatically opening up the corresponding incoming port(s). It will automatically forward the traffic on the incoming port to the computer that accessed the outgoing port. If your game uses one port to send outgoing data and a different port (or ports) for incoming data, you may want to use port triggering. The advantage of port triggering is that it is more secure than setting up a virtual server since the incoming port is only open when you are using it, and since it tracks which computer sent the outgoing data. Port triggering can also be easier to set up because you do not need to know the IP address of your gaming station. The disadvantage of port triggering is that only 1 host can be accessing the port at one time, so if you have two computers or game stations playing the same game on your network you will need to use a virtual server or DMZ. A DMZ differs from a virtual server in that it allows access on all ports of the computer. Because of this, DMZ's are less secure and should be used with caution on your
computer. However DMZ’s work well with your gaming stations since security is not as much of an issue for gaming stations as it is for computers. Some games support UPnP. If your game supports UPnP then you do not need to set any forwarding rule since UPnP will automatically set up the Modem/Router to work with the game. You can use the Forwarding Rules page to configure the options mentioned above, for allowing access to devices behind your Modem/Router. The Virtual Server Page You can use the Virtual Server page to configure a virtual server. Because your Modem/Router's firewall filters out unrecognized packets to protect your network, all computers behind this product are invisible to the outside world. If you want, you can make some of them accessible by enabling Virtual Server mapping. A virtual server will allow access to your computer on certain ports. A port is like a channel that is used by applications (such as games) to communicate on. For example, the directions for the game you want to play over the Internet might tell you to open port 6000. Service Ports This is the port number you want to allow access to your computer on. To enter multiple ports use the dash format; for example, 2004-2009. Server IP This is the IP Address of the computer or gaming device that you want to allow access to. If you do not know the IP address you can look it up by selecting Basic Settings > DHCP Server, then clicking on Client List. To make this virtual server permanent, then you should set up a fixed mapping to your computer or gaming device on the DHCP Server page. Doing this ensures that your computer will keep the same IP address
Protocol Select UDP, TCP, or Both depending on what type of protocol your game or application uses. Enable Click to enable the Virtual Server Use Rule# You can enable your virtual server for certain periods of time by assigning it a Rule #. You must first set up the appropriate Scheduling Rule. See The Schedule Rule and Schedule Rule Setting Pages on page 75 for more information. For example, if you have an FTP server (port 21) at 192.168.1.5, a Web server (port 80) at 192.168.1.6, and a game at 192.168.1.7, then you need, at minimum, to specify the following mapping. The Port Triggering Page Port triggering opens an incoming port when your computer is using a specified outgoing port for specific traffic. This provides a way for you to automate setting up a Virtual Server with some applications. You can use the Port Triggering page to configure which packets are allowed access. ID Service Port Server IP Enable 1 21 192.168.1.5 Yes 2 80 192.168.1.6 Yes 3 5000 192.168.1.7 Yes
Trigger The outbound port number used by the application. Incoming Ports When the trigger packet is detected, the inbound packets sent to the specified port numbers are allowed to pass through the firewall. Enable Enables access for the specified application. Popular applications Provides a menu of applications from which to choose. Select an application and click Copy to to add the application to your list. Click Save to store your selection or Undo to remove the entry. The Miscellaneous Page The Miscellaneous Page lets you set up and enable a DMZ Host on your network, and enable UPnP settings for software and devices. In this way, specific ports can open for incoming traffic that must pass through your firewall. You can also enable IGMP on this page in the unlikely event that your service provider is using it.
Set IP Address of DMZ Host A DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) Host is a host without the protection of the firewall. It allows a computer or gaming system to be exposed to unrestricted two-way communication for Internet games, video conferencing, Internet telephony and other special applications. Use caution when using a DMZ because your firewall no longer protects the computer that is set up as a DMZ. UPnP setting This feature is enabled by default. Games and applications that are UPnP compatible will automatically open ports for you on your Modem/Router. IGMP Setting Enable IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol ) if your service provider tells you to. IGMP is typically used for IPTV applications. Configuring Security Settings The Security Setting page lists six configuration menus on the left pane and provides a description of the configuration menus at center.
Status Page The Status page shows you the status of the inbound and outbound Packet Filters and the Domain Filters. Inbound, Outbound, and Domain filters are disabled, by default.
Packet Filtering Page Packet Filtering allows you to control what packets are allowed to pass through the Modem/Router. Outbound Packet filters control outbound packets and Inbound Filtering controls packets coming from the Internet. Inbound Filters applies only to packets going to a Virtual Server or DMZ. Most users will not need to setup Packet Filtering. When you click on Packet Filters from the left-side menu, it takes you to the Outbound Packet Filtering page. If you need to set up an Inbound Filter, click on Inbound Filter button at the bottom of the page. Filtering Policies You can select one of the two filtering policies: Allow all to pass except those that match the specified rules Deny all to pass except those that match the specified rules Filtering Rules You can specify eight rules for each direction: inbound or outbound. For each rule, you can define the following: Source IP address Destination IP address Destination Port Use Rule# For the Source or Destination IP address, you can define a single IP address (4.3.2.1). An empty field implies any IP address. For Destination Port, you can define a single port (80) or a range of ports (1000-1999). No prefix indicates both TCP and UDP are defined. Leaving this empty implies that all port addresses apply. Each Rule can be enabled or disabled individually. You can use packet filters with scheduling rules for more access control flexibility. The Domain Filters Page You can use the Domain Filters page to enable or deny user access to specified URLs. Domain filtering and URL Blocking perform similar functions. The major difference between Domain Filtering and URL Blocking is that Domain Filtering requires the user to input a suffix whereas URL Blocking requires the user to input a keyword only. In other words, Domain Filtering can block a specific web site, whereas URL Blocking can block hundreds of web sites by specifying a keyword. Domain Filter Use to prevent users behind this device from accessing specific URLs. Log attempted URL Access Check if you want to log the action when someone accesses the specific
URLs. Privilege IP Address Range Domain filtering rules do not apply to IP addresses in this range. Domain Suffix The suffix of the restricted URL; for example, xxx .com. Action The action to be taken when a user accesses the restricted domain suffix URL. Check Drop to block access. Check log to record the attempted access. Enable Click the checkbox to enable a rule. The URL Blocking Page You can use the URL Blocking page to block LAN computers from connecting to pre-defined Web sites or to limit their access to specific websites. The major difference between Domain Filtering and URL Blocking is that Domain Filtering requires the user to input a suffix whereas URL Blocking requires the user to input a keyword only. In other words, Domain Filtering can block a specific web site, whereas URL Blocking can block hundreds of web sites by specifying a keyword. URL Blocking Enable Check if you want to enable URL Blocking. Block Setting Select Blacklist to block access to any words or URLs that you specify. Select Whitelist to allow access only to the URLs that you specify.
URL If any part of the Website's URL matches the pre-defined word, the connection will be blocked if Blacklist is set, or allowed if Whitelist is set. For example, if you set up blacklisting, you can use the pre-defined word, sex, to block all website URLs that contain the pre-defined word, sex. Enable Click the checkbox to enable each rule. The MAC Address Control Page You can use the MAC Address Control page to provide an added layer of security to your Modem/Router. MAC Address control is used to define connection and association rights for clients whose IP and MAC addresses are specified. Click on the HELP button page for a detailed explanation including examples for setting up MAC address control. MAC Address Control Check Enable to enable MAC Address Control. All of the settings on this page will take effect only if Enable is checked. Connection control Check Connection control to specify which wired and wireless clients can connect to this device. If a client is denied a connection to this device, then that client is also defined Internet access. Choose allow or deny to indicate
which clients can connect to this device.
Association control Check Association control to specify which wireless clients can associate to the wireless LAN. If a client is not allowed to associate to the wireless LAN, then the client can't send or receive any data via this device. Choose allow or deny to indicate which clients can associate to the wireless LAN. If selected, the specified wireless client will obtain any radio connection to the access point. DHCP clients Displays a list of computers that are currently connected to the Modem/Router. Select a client from the menu then copy to the selected ID. The client IP and MAC addresses are written in the fields below the menus. The Miscellaneous Page You can use the Miscellaneous Items page to enable additional security features. Please refer to the online help for details about each of the menu items. Configuring Advanced Settings The Advanced Settings page lists eight menus on the left pane and provides a description of the configuration menus at center.
The System Log Page You can use the System Log page to define how and where system logs will be exported via syslog (UDP) or SMTP(TCP). IP Address for Syslogging Host IP address of the destination where the Sys log will be sent. Click the Enable checkbox to set the IP Address as the destination. E-mail alert settings Check Enable if you want to send syslog via email.
SMTP Server IP and Port Input the SMTP server IP and port; for example, mail.your_url.com or 192.168.2.100:26. If you do not specify a port number, the port value will be set to 25. SMTP Username and Password Input the SMTP Username and Password. E-mail addresses The email address of each syslog recipient. E-mail Subject The subject of the email alert. This setting is optional. The Dynamic DNS Page You can use the Dynamic DNS page to define the Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS) that will host your server. For example, the DDNS could host your server when you want to host a website on your network but you do not have a static IP. Your DDNS provider keeps track of changes to your IP address and automatically routes users trying to access your web site to the correct location Note: Before you enable DDNS, you must register an account with one of the DDNS servers listed in the Provider field. Your DDNS provider will provide the HostName, Username/E-mail, and Password/Key that you will enter into the fields on the Dynamic DNS page. The QoS Page You can use the Quality of Service (QoS) page to provide different priorities to different users or data flows, or to guarantee a certain level of performance.
QoS Control Click the Enable checkbox to enable QoS. Available Upstream bandwidth Set the upstream speed. The best way to find your throughput is to use one of the free speed tests widely available on the Web. Some examples of sites with good speed tests are www.speedtest.net and www.speakeasy.net/speedtest. When you now your actual upstream throughput, enter it in this field. The value should be in kilobits per second (Kbps). Local: IP Define the local IP address of packets. Local: Ports Define the local port of packets. Remote: IP Define the remote IP address of packets. Remote: Ports Define the remote port of packets. QoS Priority Select a value from the dropdown menu to define the priority level for the local and remote settings.

Check Local if you want the Modem/Router to respond to requests from the LAN. Check Remote if you want the Modem/Router to respond to requests from the WAN. Get Community Set Get Community to the GetRequest to which your device will respond. Set Community Set Set Community to the SetRequest that your device will accept. IP 1, IP 2, IP 3, IP 4 Enter the IP address of your SNMP Management PCs. You must specify where the Modem/Router should send SNMP Trap messages. SNMP Version Select the SNMP Version that your SNMP Management software supports. WAN Access IP Address Enter the IP address for WAN access. The default value of 0.0.0.0 indicates that every IP address can get some information about this device, using the SNMP protocol.
The Routing Table Page You can use the Routing Table page to enable/disable both Dynamic and Static Routing. If routing is enabled, you can specify which physical interface address to use for outgoing IP data grams. If you have more than one Modem/Router and subnet, you will need to define a routing table that lets packets find the proper routing path and allows different subnets to communicate with each other. Most users do not need to set up Dynamic or Static Routing. Dynamic Routing The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) will exchange information about destinations for computing routes throughout the network. Please select RIPv2 only if you have different subnet in your network. Otherwise, please select RIPv1 if you need this protocol. Static Routing For static routing, you can specify up to eight routing rules. You can enter the Destination IP address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, Hop for each routing rule. Click the Enable checkbox to activate the routing table entry. The System Time Page You can use the System Time page to set and synchronize your Modem/Router with the local time zone, the Time Server and your PC.
