• Click on “Add/Remove Windows Components” on the left hand side.
• Scroll down to “Network Services” and highlight by a single click.
• Click on the “Details” button below the list of components.

Configuration and firmware updates are done via a web interface, the WebManager. Connect the LAN port directly to a PC using a standard Ethernet cable. In a few minutes, your PC will recognize the device and will list it by serial number in 'network places' (from the start menu) on Windows XP or 'network' on Windows 7. Double click the icon and the web interface will open up in your browser.

Note: Windows XP users must have UPnP installed on their computer. The broadcast channel can also be set via a front-panel button.
