Other Features and Settings
Where use of a certain feature requires that
PCs or other LAN devices be configured, this
is also explained in the relevant chapter.
Configuration Program
VRT-311 / VRT-311S contains an HTTP server. This enables you to connect to it, and config-
ure it, using your Web Browser. Your Browser must support JavaScript. The configuration
program has been tested on the following browsers:
• Netscape V4.08 or later
• Internet Explorer V4 or later
Preparation
Before attempting to configure VRT-311 / VRT-311S, please ensure that:
• Your PC can establish a physical connection to VRT-311 / VRT-311S. The PC and VRT-
311 / VRT-311S must be directly connected (using the Hub ports on VRT-311 / VRT-
311S) or on the same LAN segment.
• VRT-311 / VRT-311S must be installed and powered ON.
• If VRT-311 / VRT-311S’s default IP Address (192.168.0.1) is already used by another
device, the other device must be turned OFF until VRT-311 / VRT-311S is allocated a new
IP Address during configuration.
Using UPnP
If your Windows system supports UPnP, an icon for VRT-311 / VRT-311S will appear in the
system tray, notifying you that a new network device has been found, and offering to create a
new desktop shortcut to the newly-discovered device.
• Unless you intend to change the IP Address of VRT-311 / VRT-311S, you can accept the
desktop shortcut.
• Whether you accept the desktop shortcut or not, you can always find UPnP devices in My
Network Places (previously called Network Neighborhood).
