Thuraya IP+ Satellite Modem User Guide 1
3500799-0001 rev A
Introduction
Your Thuraya IP+
is a Satellite Modem that provides
portable, high-speed data communications via satellite. Using
“Always On” technology, you can remain connected to the
Internet while only sending or receiving the data that you
need at speeds of up to 444kbits/s, just as if you were sitting
at your office desk. Thuraya IP+ works with your computer
using an Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection much like
commercially available wireless routers. Note that the Wi-Fi
Access Point in the Thuraya IP+ uses a separate subnet and DHCP server than the
wired Ethernet port. An internal router allows IP traffic to flow seamlessly between
the two subnets and out over the satellite link.
While Thuraya IP+ operates very similarly to other data modems that you may be
familiar with, there are a few important operating differences to note. Please read this
user guide carefully to understand all the aspects of operating your Thuraya IP+.
