Installing the Cisco BWX360 WiMAX Outdoor Modem
As soon as a radio connection has been established with a WiMAX base station,
the scan will end. The progress bar is fully filled in and the display in the Remaining
time area jumps to 0 seconds.
If the scan was successful, continue reading from "Precisely aligning the antenna"
on page 21.
If the scan was not successful:
The integrated antenna is directional. This means it must be pointing roughly in the
direction of a WiMAX base station in order to establish a radio connection. The access
data must also have been entered correctly.
1. First check your access data by going back to the WiMAX configuration page.
2. Turn the modem approx. 20° and restart the scan. You may need to turn the anten-
na several times.
The best results will be obtained if the outdoor
modem is in sight of the WiMAX base station.
If a line of sight is not possible, you can reflect
the radio waves off neighbouring buildings. For
this, direct the antenna at the building it is to
reflect off and not at the base station.
