Modem warning notice for Australia

Modems connected to the Australian telecoms network must have a valid Austel permit. This modem has been designed to specifically configure to ensure compliance with Austel standards when the country/region selection is set to Australia. The use of other country/region setting while the modem is attached to the Australian PSTN would result in you modem being oper- ated in a non-compliant manner. To verify that the country/region is cor- rectly set, enter the command ATI which displays the currently active setting.

To set the country/region permanently to Australia, enter the following com- mand sequence:

AT%TE=1

ATS133=1

AT&F

AT&W

AT%TE=0

ATZ

Failure to set the modem to the Australia country/region setting as shown above 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 Telecoms Act 1991 prescribes a penalty of $12,000 for the connection of non-permitted equipment.

Notes for use of this device in New Zealand

■The grant of a Telepermit for a device in no way indicates Telecom 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 telephony to customers. Failure to operate should not be reported as a fault to Telecom.

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

(a)it is compatible with the modem at the other end of the call and

(b)the application using the modem is compatible with the applica- tion at the other end of the call - e.g., 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 Telecom customers.

■Some parameters required for compliance with Telecom’s PTC Specifications are dependent on the equipment (PC) associated with this modem. The associated equipment shall be set to operate within the following limits for compliance with Telecom Specifications:
