NOTES
a)If you have no DHCP server on the net, your Appliance must be physically plugged into the same subnet as your client PC at the time of initial discovery. Otherwise, you will not be able to locate and set up your
b)If you have DHCP server on the net, please check its configuration. Misconfigured DHCP server may not return network settings (gateway, in particular) correctly. It can lead to the situation when Appliance can be “pinged” on the network, and its shares are visible on the network but it cannot be located by ApplianceView. Please do not forget to reboot Appliance after changing DHCP server settings.
c)Please check if your proxy server settings are disabled, otherwise Appliance discovery may fail. You may see how it is configured in the System Preferences/Network. On the Network page, please select your network card, and then disable the usage of proxies at the Proxies tab. Do not forget to restart ApplianceView in this case.
