Reinstalling the Dongle Driver

The license file corresponding to maximum streams and bandwidth you purchased is pre- installed on the server by VBrick. Under normal circumstances you will never have to re- install the license. When you purchase a VOD-W, a dongle key with the proper settings is also included. This dongle key must be connected to any available USB port (front or rear) on the unit to enable video streaming through the server. The license dongle regulates the maximum video streaming throughput and the maximum number of simultaneous video streams. The license file is pre-installed on the VOD-W server in the \system32 folder. However, you will still need to reinstall the dongle driver if you ever need to reinstall the system.
