If you use the RTA100+ ADSL Modem/Router’s USB port to
connect to a PC, you must first connect the USB cable and then
install the provided USB driver software on the PC. The driver
enables Ethernet-over-USB communication with the RTA100+
ADSL Modem/Router. Make sure to take the steps as described
below.
The strings description below are basically the same in Windows
98, Me, 2000 and XP. The following assumes a Windows 2000
environment.
Part 1. Attaching the USB cable.
Attach the USB cable to the RTA100+ ADSL Modem/Router and
to your PC.
After attaching the USB cable, the Windows plug-and-play
