There are two methods of installing the Swann Netslider II modem, the easiest is to follow the instructions as described in step 1 and 2 below, then shut down your computer, connect and turn on your modem, then restart your PC. Once your computer starts, your operating system will detect your new hardware and install the necessary drivers.

The second method is to connect your modem first, then switch on your PC. Once the new device is detected, you can install the Netslider II modem driver by selecting your CD-ROM drive from the install locations in the “add new hardware wizard”.Microsoft® Windows® NT users can also use this location to install the Netslider II manually.

The drivers for your modem are also located in d:\drivers\ns2e (where d represents the letter assigned to your CD-ROM drive).

If you are required to do a completely manual installation (eg Microsoft® Windows® NT users) the modem can be installed manually by running the driver installer on this page, and then using the Modems control panel applet to select Swann Communications from the list of manufacturers. Once Swann is selected you will be able to select your modem model and continue the installation including selecting the serial port to which it is connected.

The necessary drivers will now be copied to your systems hard disk, in the Windows\inf folder. This is where Microsoft® Windows® stores all the information files for your hardware. Once this is done most hardware will be detected and installed automatically by Microsoft® Windows® and also added to the list of manufacturers that you can select from. You will also see a shortcut on your Start Menu to uninstall the drivers should the need arise.

Once you have completed the driver installation, you will need to shut down your computer and follow step 2 on the page below.
