VoloAccess™ User Manual Getting Started The first step is to check that the VoloAccess package that you have purchased is complete. The following is the packing list: 1 Getting Started Guide 1 VoloAccess 1 Base 1 Power Supply 1 Ethernet Cable 2 Antennas 1 CD (Contains the User Manual) If any component is missing, please contact the retailer where you purchased the VoloAccess. How to use this Manual The manual is arranged in easy to follow sections.
VoloAccess™ User Manual Installing the SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) USIM (Universal Subscriber Identity Module) correctly describes the identity module used in 3G mobile devices like the VoloAccess. However, SIM which is the identity module used in 2G mobile devices is the term in common usage. For simplicity, the term SIM is used throughout this manual. Before attempting to install the SIM, disconnect the power supply.
VoloAccess™ User Manual Slide the SIM into the retainer with the cut corner positioned as shown. The contact pads on the SIM should be facing up ready to engage the connectors in the base of the holder. Turn the retainer over and slide in the LOCK direction to secure the SIM in position.

The stronger the signal, the better the VoloAccess performance. Test several locations by moving the VoloAccess while looking at the Signal Strength indicator. (Wait 10 to 20 seconds after each change of location for the Signal Strength to be measured and displayed – a flashing indicator represents a weak signal).
VoloAccess™ User Manual Connecting the VoloAccess to a Computer The VoloAccess is connected to a computer using one of the four Ethernet (LAN) ports on the back of the unit and the Ethernet port on the computer. Use an Ethernet cable for this purpose.
VoloAccess™ User Manual Checking the Connection When the VoloAccess has been connected and the above steps completed, check that a connection exists between the VoloAccess and the computer.

VoloAccess™ User Manual Failover Failover is the capability to switch automatically to a secondary network when the primary network fails. By default Failover is disabled. Once enabled, the VoloAccess supports failover between multiple WAN interfaces. Automatic failover provides enhanced availability and reliability. WAN failover takes place when a WAN device fails due to disconnection, for example, the 3G network goes offline.
VoloAccess™ User Manual After enabling Failover and selecting the interface order, it is necessary to enable the WAN port before connecting the VoloAccess to a secondary WAN interface. The following items can be configured if necessary. Polling Interval The length of time (in seconds) between DNS resolution attempts. The polling requests are the regular monitoring of the WAN interfaces.
VoloAccess™ User Manual After enabling Failover, the WAN page changes to reflect the status of the primary and secondary WAN interfaces and the WAN section of the navigation panel expands to include WAN Ethernet as shown in the following image. The WAN page displays the following: Interface The name of the Interface Status Displays the current status of the interface. Additional information may be displayed, depending on the interface type.

Observe the Connection and Verification status of the WAN interfaces. When all interfaces are fully operational, they are shown as being Connected and Verified with the primary interface Active.
VoloAccess™ User Manual Dynamic DNS To a user, domain names like vololink.com make perfect sense, but not to a computer. Computers work with numbers in the form of IP addresses like 124.177.145.95 to communicate with each other on the Internet. DNS translates domain names into IP addresses (and the other way around) making it possible for computers to communicate; however dynamically assigned IP addresses change. Dynamic DNS (Domain Name System) works by reassigning IP addresses to domain names.
VoloAccess™ User Manual LAN The LAN (Local Area Network) page displays the LAN status and traffic statistics. To view the LAN page click LAN in the Navigation panel - the LAN page appears: LAN Status displays the following: MAC Address The MAC (Media Access Control) address of the VoloAccess.

VoloAccess™ User Manual Port Forward Port forward is used to allow an external user to reach a port on a private IP address (inside a LAN) from the outside via a NAT-enabled router (VoloAccess). When a computer on the Internet sends data to the public IP address of the VoloAccess, it needs to know how to manage the data. Port Forward tells the VoloAccess which computer on the local area network to send the data to.
