1. Introduction

1.1 Overview

The Air3G is a wireless multi-function router based on 150Mbps wireless-b/g/n 2.4GHz

radio technologies. Users can share a wireless 3G/3.5G USB modem or xDSL cable

modem internet connection at high speed. It also provides to 4 operation modes to satisfy

different application environments. In addition, it features passive PoE port for installations

in places that have no nearby access to electricity. Please take notice of the following

features:

 This product does not come with 3G modem. It works with your 3G USB dongle. For latest

3G USB dongle support list, please visit our website at

www.airlive.com and type “Air3G” on

the product search.

 The Air3G is not just a 3G sharing router. It can also share other broadband connections from

xDSL modem, ADSL modem, or Cable modem.

 The Air3G can support 12V on its passive PoE port. You will need to purchase a passive PoE

Injector (PoE-1P) separately. For more information, please read section 2.4.1.

 The maximum output power for Air3G is about 1watt(30dBm). However, it is limited to 20dBm

in EU and 23dBm in the U.S. for compliance with regulations. Nevertheless, unlike normal

11n routers that typically provide less than 15dBm output power in 11n mode, the Air3G can

provides up to 19dBm(EU) and 22dBm(FCC) in 11n mode. It means greater coverage in 11n

mode. Despite of Air3G’s capability, we strongly recommend that you use as little power as

possible to reduce interference and conserve energy.

If you encounter any technical issues, we strongly recommend you read through Chapter

10: Frequent Asked Questions. The answers you need are very likely to be there.
