Introduction
The Accelerated Concepts NetReach is an 802-11 b/g/n Wi-Fi Access Point designed to work
with a variety of routers, including the AT&T VPN Gateway. The Netreach was designed for
enterprises and small business that need to centrally manage one or many remote sites. There
are more than 30 NetReach configuration settings that can be maintained and distributed from
a central management location. This allows an enterprise to rapidly distribute and then manage
a large number of remote locations in a short amount of time. All of this can easily be
accomplished with the Accelerated Network Management System (ANMS).
The NetReach offers a choice of authentication alternatives that support both public and private
wireless LANs. One of the major security features of the product is that business / private traffic
is separated from public traffic using its VLAN and Stateful Firewall functionality.
The NetReach has a powerful 400mW variable transmitter that provides indoor coverage of 100
to 300 feet. With its Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability, the NetReach allows a customer to
place a Wi-Fi Hotspot in a remote location distant from its associated router. This allows the
user to place the router in a secure location, such as a hardened location, and place the
NetReach in the lobby for optimal customer coverage. Most routers can also provide URL
filtering and other UTM features that can be part of a Wi-Fi solution.

Device Configuration
The Accelerated Concepts NetReach can be configured in two ways. If no Internet connectivity
is available the local maintenance panel can be used to setup the device. The local user
interface can be reached at its default administrative address 192.168.2.1. If the attached
router assigned a private address you must enter that address instead.
If the unit does have Internet connectivity, the preferred method for configuring the device is to
use the cloud-based Accelerated Concepts Network Management System (ANMS) portal.

Device Configuration Using ANMS Portal
The Accelerated Network Management System (ANMS) is a cloud-based portal that you can use
to manage your Accelerated Concepts NetReach. When you or your company subscribes to our
management portal services, an account is set up on your behalf.
Once the account is set up, you will receive an initial password to log in to ANMS. Your
username will be your e-mail address. To sign in to ANMS go to the anms.accns.com URL. This
will take you to the main Login page.
Login Page
Enter your email and password and click the Login button. There is a password-reset function
located below the login form if you have forgotten your password.
