1.3.2 WAN Connection
Setting up the WAN connection requires that a SIM card is inserted correctly
into the SIM slot of the GlobeSurfer 3G. See the User Guide for instructions on
how to insert the SIM card. With the SIM card in place you configure the WAN
connection through the Quick Setup of the GlobeSurfer 3G (see section 1.5. The
first time you login to the GlobeSurfer 3G you will have to enter a PIN code.
The PIN code is received from your ISP, but normally provided separately from
the SIM card for security reasons.
1.4 Step 2 - PC Network Configuration
The GlobeSurfer 3G provides a DHCP server, which means that each computer
connected to the LAN can obtain its network addresses – IP address and DNS
server IP addresses – automatically from the GlobeSurfer 3G. This is the de-
fault setting in Windows and valid in most cases. Alternatively, each network
interface on the LAN PCs can be configured with a statically defined IP ad-
dress and DNS address. If this is the case you must receive valid addresses
from your network operator and configure your PC and the GlobeSurfer 3G
accordingly. Then refer to section 4.2.
