Overview

Before you begin, please read the following general installation information.

Connecting to Both Ports

Once you connect a computer to either the USB or Ethernet port, you can connect a second computer to the unused port without reconfiguring the Diva 2440. However, to help ensure a problem-free setup, connect only one computer and verify that the device is working correctly before connecting a second computer.

Requirements

Your system requirements will depend on the type of installation and the computer you are using.

Ethernet

The Diva 2440 will work with any computer equipped with the

 

following:

 

• A 10BASE-T Ethernet network interface card, properly installed and

 

configured to use the TCP/IP protocol. Consult the documentation

 

that came with your card for instructions on how to do this. A

 

100 Mbps Ethernet card can be used if the card supports

 

auto-sensing.

 

• TCP/IP communications protocol configured to obtain its IP address

 

automatically (DHCP client), and not configured to use a DNS server.

 

See TCP/IP Setup on page 27 for more information.

 

 

USB

To connect using the Diva 2440’s USB port, you will require a

 

computer running Windows 98, Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000, or

 

Windows Millennium Edition, equipped with an freeUSB port. You

 

cannot use the Diva 2440’s USB port with Windows 95, Windows NT,

 

Apple® Macintosh®, or other systems.

 

 

Web Browser

The Diva 2440 is configured via web pages stored on the device. To

 

use the web interface, you must be using Netscape Navigator 3.01 or

 

Microsoft® Internet Explorer 4, or later versions. Additionally, your

 

Web browser must be configured to connect to the Internet via a local

 

area network (LAN) and not through a proxy server.

 

An installer for Microsoft Internet Explorer is included on the Diva

 

CD-ROM for all Windows operating systems except Windows 3.1.

 

Windows NT® 4.0 requires SP3 or later, available from

 

www.microsoft.com.

 

 

Diva Assistant

The Diva 2440 includes the Diva Assistant software, compatible with

 

all Windows operating systems except Windows 3.1. The Diva

 

Assistant provides convenient utilities and is also very useful during a

 

LAN setup, but it is not required in order to use the Diva 2440.
