DESCRIPTION

Cellular System

This field displays the type of the network to which the ZyWALL is connected. The

 

network type varies depending on the 3G card you inserted and could be UMTS,

 

UMTS/HSDPA, GPRS or EDGE when you insert a GSM 3G card, or 1xRTT, EVDO

 

Rev.0 or EVDO Rev.A when you insert a CDMA 3G card.

Signal Strength

This displays the strength of the signal. The signal strength mainly depends on the

 

antenna output power and the distance between your ZyWALL and the service

 

provider’s base station. You can see a signal strength indication even when the

 

ZyWALL does not have a 3G connection (because the signal is still there even

 

when the ZyWALL is not using it).

 

 

Signal Quality

This displays how good or bad the signal’s strength is based on it’s strength. For

 

example, “Good” and four signal icon bars display for a signal strength of “-80

 

dBm”.

card.
