Austel Statement (Australia Only)

When setting the number of automatic redials for the modem, ensure the following: The number of automatic redials that the modem performs should be limited to a maximum of 9 redials plus the original call. If the above retries are unsuccessful, no further attempts should be made to the same number for a minimum period of five minutes.

Warning: Failure to set the modem, and any communication software used with the modem, to the values contained in the listing will result in the modem being operated in a non- compliant manner. Consequently, there would be no permit in force for this equipment, and the Telecommunications Act 1991 prescribes a penalty of A$12,000 for the connection of non-permitted equipment.

Australia/New Zealand Telecom Statement

Your modem has been granted an Austel Permit for use in Australia and a New Zealand Telecom Telepermit for use in New Zealand. In each country/region, special conditions apply to the settings and features of your modem. Failure to observe these conditions might result in heavy penalties being applied (up to A$12,000.00 in Australia).

Warning: For safety reasons, only connect equipment with a telecommunications compliance label. This includes customer equipment previously labeled, permitted or certified.

The grant of a Permit/Telepermit in no way indicates the telecom agency’s acceptance of responsibility for the correct operation of that device under all operating conditions. In particular, the higher speeds at which this modem is capable of operating depend on a specific network implementation which is only one of many ways of delivering high-quality voice telephone to customers. Failure to operate should not be reported as a fault to Telecom or Austel.

In addition to satisfactory line conditions, a modem can work properly only if:

It is compatible with the modem at the other end of the call, and

The application using the modem is compatible with the application at the other end of the call; for example, accessing the Internet requires suitable software in addition to a modem.

This equipment shall not be used in any manner which could constitute a nuisance to other customers.

The setting and features discussed below influence how your modem reacts with the telephone network. If changes from the default values are made, then it is possible that unwanted signals or interference may be generated, your modem might dial wrong numbers or suffer from a reduced level of performance. We strongly recommend that the settings are not changed under any circumstances or the Permit/Telepermit may become invalid.
