Modem Technical Overview
You might encounter some tech-speak ahead; if that’s not your cup of tea, then skip to page 5.
Modem – 4-port integrated modem and wireless router Compatibility - Modem supports a variety of operating systems including Mac OS® 8.x, 9.x & 10.x, Linux®, and Windows® 98SE, ME, NT, 2000, XP, Vista, 7 & 8. Your computer will need an internet browser installed and a network adapter that supports TCP/IP (the standard language of the internet). Internet Access - Modem supports internet access through any ADSL or fibre connection, with built-in clients for PPPoE or PPPoA protocols for ADSL. Browser-based Settings Interface - You can manage Modem settings easily through your web browser without having to install additional software. There are no disks to keep track of and you can make changes and perform setups from any computer on your home network quickly and easily. DMZ Host Support - DMZ Host Support allows a networked computer to be fully exposed to the internet. This function is used when Network Address Translation (NAT) and firewall security prevent an internet browser from functioning correctly. NAT IP Address Sharing - Modem employs Network Address Translation (NAT) to share the single IP address it uses to get you online with the other computers on your home network. SPI Firewall - Modem is equipped with a firewall that protects your network from a wide array of common hacker attacks. Universal Plug-and-Play (UPnP) Compatibility - Universal Plug-and-Play is a technology that allows operation of voice messaging, video messages, games and other applications that are UPnP-compatible on your connected devices. 3
Modem Technical Overview
USB/3G Charge Ports - Modem has two USB ports. The first USB port on the right-hand side of your Modem (labelled storage/charger) is for charging USB devices such as mobile phones, or for plugging in a USB hard drive. This port is not designed for a full Network Attached Service (NAS) storage function; it is designed for backing up or sharing files around your home network. The storage port supports FATI6/32 and NTFS USB Mass Storage devices. The second USB port (labelled 3g) is situated under the cover on the back of Modem. It’s designed for 3G USB modems. This port will supply a maximum of 5V 500mA. Connecting a third party USB device which requires more than 500mA of power for charging may result in damage to your equipment. Computer Filter Rule - For added security, you can set up a list of MAC addresses (unique client identifiers) that are allowed access to your network. Every computer, smartphone and tablet has its own MAC address, so you can control access to your network by knowing which devices can connect and which can’t. WEP, WPA and WPA2 Encryption Protocols for Wireless - Modem features WPA2 as a default, a superior protocol of wireless security. It combines advanced network authentication and stronger Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption methods. Modem also supports the legacy security standard called Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) to allow you to use wireless securely with any older devices you may have. Alternate wireless security protocols can be found in the Advanced wireless section of the Modem settings. Virtual Local Area Network - Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) adds the ability to manage multiple connections with one modem. The LED indicators are easily visible on the front of the modem to provide you with information about your home network’s status at a glance. 4

Troubleshooting
If you have no dial tone or ADSL sync on any phone socket in your home, then please call our Support Team on 13 88 88.
Performing an Isolation Test
Isolation tests can help you to determine if there is an issue with your hardware or your phone line. 1.
Unplug all devices from every phone socket, including Modem, telephones, fax machines, other modems, pay TV boxes and EFTPOS terminals.
2. Plug a standard telephone handset (without a filter) into the phone socket. Listen for a dial tone and make sure you can make a call without hearing noise interference. 3. If you have no dial tone or you hear noise interference, test a different handset if possible and then contact our Support Team using the information on page 35. 4. Unplug the telephone handset and instead plug your Modem directly into the phone socket. 5. Check to see if your Modem has a steady blue ADSL sync light. If not, repeat steps 1 to 5 for all other phone sockets in your home.
29
Troubleshooting If connection resumes during the isolation test If your Modem gets a stable blue ADSL sync light at any point during the isolation test, you can start plugging your other equipment back in, piece by piece. Always start with any filters that were used to plug equipment into a phone socket and wait a minute or two after each device is plugged back in to see if the ADSL sync light goes out. If the ADSL sync light goes out, the cable or device you’ve just plugged in is probably faulty or interfering with your home network. We recommend replacing it if it is faulty, or adding a filter to it if it didn’t have one. Why your devices could be interfering with your broadband: •
The equipment is not being filtered at all. Please ensure you have filters on all telephone and fax devices.
•
The equipment is using a faulty filter. Test this by swapping filters between devices.
•
The equipment is overpowering the filter. Please ensure you are using compatible equipment.

Troubleshooting Connection dropouts
If you still have dropouts after isolating one computer on your network for 24 hours, then please call our Support Team on 13 88 88.
Dropouts occur when you can get online, but only for a short amount of time before the ADSL sync light turns red or starts flashing again. 1.
Test your phone and isolate your Modem by following steps 1 to 4 on page 29.
2. Connect one computer to your Modem with an ethernet cable, and then use it to go to the Modem settings page. 3. Temporarily set the Wireless function to Disable on the Wireless Wizard page. You’ll now have just one computer cable-connected to your Modem. 4. Leave this modem connected and turned on for at least 24 hours, making a note of the time your connection drops out, and for how long. 5. If you connection didn’t drop out, set the Wireless function back to Enable on the Wireless Wizard page, then follow the advice on page 30.
31
Troubleshooting
If you’re still experiencing slow speeds, please call our Support Team on 13 88 88.
Slow speeds
Slow speeds can be caused by congestion, which occurs when too many computers try to access an internet connection at once. This can also occur on your Modem’s wireless signal. 1.
Test your phone and isolate your Modem by following steps 1 to 4 on page 29.
2. Connect one computer to your Modem with an ethernet cable, and then use it to go to the Modem settings page. 3. Temporarily set the Wireless function to Disable on the Wireless Wizard page. You’ll now have a computer cable-connected to your Modem. 4. Run a full virus scan on your computer using your antivirus software. If you are unsure how to do this, please consult a computer technician. 5. Temporarily disable any firewalls or antivirus software you have on your computer. Contact your antivirus provider for support if it appears to be affecting your speed. 6. If your speeds improve, set the Wireless function back to Enable on the Wireless Wizard page, then follow the advice on page 30 to reconnect your equipment.
32
Troubleshooting Performing a factory reset 1.
Unless instructed to by a member of the Jiva Support Team, you should only factory reset your modem if you want to remove all of your customised settings.
Locate the reset button next to the power socket on the side of your Modem.
2. Using a pen or paperclip, hold the reset button down for 8 seconds. 3. The lights on Modem will start flashing. Wait 2-5 minutes for it to reboot. 4. All settings will be restored to factory defaults. Check the instructions in your Quick Setup Guide if you need to connect again.
