CONNECT COMPUTER USING USB
If your computer does not have an Ethernet port and it is running
Windows 98SE, ME, 2000, or XP, you can use the supplied USB cable
to connector your computer to the SOMAport.
NOTE: Ethernet is the preferred type of connection. The USB connection
should only be used in computers that do not support Ethernet.
To connect a computer via USB
1 Ensure that the SOMAport is powered on. See “Power on the SOMAport” on
page 18.
2 Plug the square connector on the USB cable into the USB port on the back
of the SOMAport.
3 Plug the flat connector into the USB port on your computer.
A hardware wizard window opens.
