STEP 5: GPS LOCATION

take up to five minutes. It is important that the Satellite IP Modem is placed away
from buildings, trees and other obstacles that might block a clear view of the sky.
Wait – Power light alternating
red / amber
Proceed – Power light

2. When the power light changes from a red/amber flash to an amber/green flash
proceed to the next step. If the power light is solid green or flashing green, the
Satellite IP Modem is not in antenna pointing mode. Turn the Satellite IP Modem
off and then back on.

is controlled through a
web browser interface
