Tags: devices | iburst

iBurst technology is a wide-area mobile broadband technology offering a unique combination of high speed, wide range and high base station capacity. It is a pure Internet Protocol, end-to-end system built on two primary components: base stations deployed by a network operator, and wireless modems or PC cards designed for the iBurst network. Unlike voice networks such as cellular GSM, CDMA and 3G standards - iBurst technology has been designed from the ground up to provide pure data and with the incorporation of IntelliCell technology it is able to provide the wireless data more efficiently than the voice based cellular networks. iBurst have installed over 260 base stations, and over 70,000 customers are using iBurst in South Africa today. No telephone lines are required - making installation quick, simple, and allows mobility within coverage areas. Voice Over IP (VOIP) protocols are allowed, unlike the cellular technologies where they are stopped or degraded. Unused bandwidth data may be carried over to the following month (limited to the monthly data allocation and/or the amount of any Bandwidth Booster)

Modems and Antennas:


UTD for Desktop or Networks (USB and Ethernet ports) : It requires mains power, has a small extending aerial, with Ethernet and USB ports. This allows fixed broadband connection benefits with added portability, allowing it to be disconnected and moving it to a new location. It can be connected to a single computer or attached to a Local Area Network or a Wireless network for shared access between devices in the home or office. Purchase a Wireless Router from Eject to connect many computers via wireless or via LAN cables.

USB Modem for laptops and desktops : For a fixed or mobile broadband connection allowing the freedom to set it up in an office or move around without losing connection. No mains adapter is required. Suitable to connect to a PC/Mac/Laptop.

The UTC (Laptop modems) are no longer sold, use a USB modem instead.

Mini Antenna : Supplied with USB modems, can increase signal in low coverage areas.

Omni Antenna : Optional and recommended in poor or low coverage areas, it can improve signal significantly. Connects to USB, Laptop and Desktop modems. The high gain omni-directional antenna is developed for iBurst 1787 to 1797 MHz for pole or wall mounting (bracket for mounting included).
In areas where there in no coverage, antennas will not provide a signal.

Compatibility - iBurst Modems are compatible with Windows XP (32 bit), Windows 2000, Vista, Apple Mac OS X and Apple/Intel Duo. Linux and Unix can be configured manually to operate with the Desktop modem ethernet port.

 Other devices :

Dual WAN port Router :

Connect two iBurst modems, or an iBurst + any other Ethernet connection (such as ADSL or Diginet or 3G or HSPDA WAN port), for faster browsing and greater throughput. An integrated 8-port Fast Ethernet LAN switch, load balancing with automatic fail-over, a high performance Firewall and USB storage support for easy file sharing. Perfect for ensuring fail-over in event of one technology failure.

Wireless VoIP Router :

With the Router at the center of your home or office network, you can share a high-speed Internet connection, files, printers, and multi-player games, and turn that Internet connection into a high-quality, high-value telephone and VOIP services. The router provides :

• A shared iBurst connection
• Wireless Access Point to connect Wireless-G (802.11g at 54Mbps) and Wireless-B (802.11b) devices.
• A 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch, to connect your wired-Ethernet devices.
• A phone adapter enables high-quality telephone service, with 2 independent standard telephone jacks.
• Encoding wireless transmissions with up to 128-bit encryption to protect your data and privacy.
• Serve as a DHCP Server, a powerful SPI firewall to protect your PCs against intruders.
• Supports VPN pass-through, and can be configured to filter internal users access to the Internet.
• Configuration is easy with the web browser-based configuration utility.

eScan is the latest offering from MicroWorld Technologies Inc. It offers a combination of features to help you fight the threat of viruses, set security policies for parental control over content accessed by your child. It guards against Internet misuse, block Spam and offensive mails and block PopUp Ads.

A very important feature is Browser CleanUp that allows you to protect your privacy and removes traces of websites you visit, removes cookies, active X controls, plugins and other links that reveal your browsing habits.

The Corporate Edition of eScan, includes the eScan Management module. This module provides system administrators to remotely administer a vast network of clients. It also allows administrators to remotely install eScan, deploy upgrades and updates, view details of eScan activity, etc.

Real time e-mail scanning and Spam killer eScan has unique features that perform Real-Time MWL scanning. Some tasks it performs are: scan incoming POP3 e-mail and outgoing SMTP e-mail, attachment scanning as they are run, automatic deletion of worms, scan BAT/Graphic/Plain text attachments and BIN-HEX files, scan GZIP/Stuffit and other archive attachments, pdf/executable and screen saver files, etc.

Virus Scanning eScan has a highly advanced virus scan engine that uses a combination of heuristic and reference scanning to detect and remove over 100, 000 known and unknown viruses. It is built on the MWL technology. It has a vast virus signature repository and almost all known viruses are detected. eScan scans all file types.

Additional Features eScan has many new features that offer optimal control over virus scanning and content security related activity. Some of them are: remote access file rights, where you can allow or bar specific files from being created or modified by remote users in your network; automatic download of Anti-Virus updates and auto mailing of notifications to users.

Spyware detection and removal

eScan also offers security against data thieves.
Spyware is a general term used to describe software that runs on users computers and performs actions that the consumer considers undesirable or hostile. The term has been applied to a wide variety of different applications, ranging from the arguably legitimate to the egregiously fraudulent. The three most common types of spy-ware are the following.

1. Adware - Adware monitors the pages fetched by a users Web browser or other material on the users system and when it sees particular pages or terms, it displays other pages containing advertisements paid for by the spy-ware sponsors. So called Browser Helper Objects install themselves as part of the Internet Explorer web browser and change the way it works. The changes can be as simple as switching to a different home page or as complex as redirecting web searches to the spy-ware vendors search system rather than the users desired system, or adding new click here buttons that lead to sponsors advertisements. In some cases, the adware rewrites the web pages displayed by the browser, substituting ads from adware vendor for the ads originally on the page.

2. Key-logger - Key loggers record every key pressed by the computers user and send the stream of keystrokes back to the spy-wares author. More generally, Activity Monitors can log and report on any type of users computer usage, such as e-mail sent and received, web pages visited, and instant messages exchanged. The data can be used for anything from consumer preference statistics to identity theft. This becomes all the more hazardous when the key loggers try to capture the bank details like account number, important account keys, other personal information that can be used for financial thefts or blackmailing.

3. Trojan Horses - Trojan Horses allow the spy-ware author or vendor to remotely control the consumers computer for the authors purposes. At the point, the most common purpose is probably to send spam. Although these are the most common current varieties of spy-ware, variations on these themes and new and different spy-ware programs are released frequently.

Statistics reveal:

90% of all broadband users have spy-ware installed on their computers,
Hackers stole 55,000 credit card nos. from www.creditcards.com in the year 2000 alone,
3,00,000 credit card nos. were stolen from CDUniverse.com.

Note : After installing Escan for the first time, it will download the full list of virus update files (which can take a long time), and after rebooting your PC it will perform a full virus scan (which will also take a while and make your PC slower). We therefore suggest you perform this at a convenient time.
Thereafter, virus update downloads will be much faster, and your PC will operate normally.
