Security) protocols with various encryption schemes including Microsoft Challenge
Handshake Authentication Protocol (MS-CHAP) .
• This feature allows you to use your existing Internet connection to connect to a remote
site with added security. If your VPN connection is not functional, verify that your VPN
dial-up configuration is correct.

9. What can I do if my Ethernet cable does not work properly?
• First, ensure that there is a solid cable connection between the Ethernet port on the
Router, and your NIC (Network Interface Card).
• Second, ensure that the settings on your NIC adapter are “Enabled,” and set to accept
an IP address from the DHCP.
• If settings appear to be correct, ensure that you are not using a crossover Ethernet
cable. Although the WiFi Mobile Broadband Gateway is MDI/MDIX compatible, not all
NICs are. Therefore, it is recommended that you use a patch cable when possible.
