GP03 User Manual Introduction Installing the GP03 Wireless Connection to the GP03 Internet Connection Settings Use Overseas Troubleshooting Appendix 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Thank you for purchasing the GP03. This manual describes product installation and its default settings. It also provides troubleshooting information. Please always read this manual before using the product. 1 1 Introduction Main Features This section describes the main product features. Supports NTT Docomo Xi. (When receiving: Max. 37.5 Mbps; When sending: Max. 12.5 Mbps) The communication speeds are the maximum values in sending and receiving standards. However, these do not indicate actual communication speeds. Data transmission is provided over a best-effort network. For that reason, actual communication speeds may vary according to the communication environ-
ment and the traffic load on the network. When outside of the Xi area, this can also be used in a FOMA high-speed area
(when receiving: Max. 7.2 Mbps; when sending: Max. 5.7 Mbps). The Internet connection automatically switches in public wireless LAN areas, such as Mzone, from the Xi line or FOMA line to the public wireless LAN. The included cradle provides a wired port connection, and recharges the product. Connects up to 10 wireless LAN devices, such as personal computers and game consoles. Connects to wireless LAN devices with one touch using AOSS or WPS. Operating Environment This section describes the product operating environment. Supported Devices iPad, iPod touch, game console (Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo DS, PSP PlayStation Portable), and devices that support wireless LAN. 1 Supported OS (Personal Computers) Windows 7 (32 bit/64 bit), Vista (32 bit/64 bit), XP (32 bit), Mac OS X (10.4/10.5/10.6) Supports Windows 7 Starter/Home Premium/Professional/Ultimate. Supports Windows Vista Home Basic/Home Premium/Business/Ultimate. Windows XP must have Service Pack 3 or later installed.

Setting methods vary according to the version of Windows that is running. Note Refer to the Reference Guide for details on other connecting methods. See page 58 in this manual on reference method. For Windows 7/Vista Follow the procedure below to connect to this device using AOSS/WPS (push-button type) on a personal computer running Windows 7 or Vista. Note In setting AOSS/WPS (push-button type), the personal computer and this device establish a 1-to-1 relationship. For that reason, you cannot connect another device with AOSS/WPS (push-button type) while it is being set. To connect multiple devices to one GP03 unit, connect an-
other device after completing the AOSS/WPS (push-button type) connection. 1 Select [Start] - [(All) Programs] - [BUFFALO] - [AirStation Utility] -
