Setup and Control from a Browser on Windows XP

The easiest methods of setting up and controlling a KUMO router from a PC running
Windows XP are:

• Setup and Control from a Browser on Windows XP using UPnP

• Setup and Control from a Firefox Browser on Windows XP using Bonjour

• Setup and Control from a Browser on Windows XP using a Static IP Address

Windows XP using
UPnP (Universal
Plug and Play)

Windows XP PCs support UPnP protocols, though very often UPnP service is disabled as a
default. (The procedure to enable UPnP is given later in this topic.) If UPnP is enabled, you
can control KUMO routers by simply going to “My Network Places” and double-clicking
on the KUMO as follows:

1. Ensure KUMO to be controlled is powered up and connected via Ethernet (directly or

via LAN) to the Windows XP PC.

2. Go to Start > My Network Places.

3. Locate the Icon for the KUMO being controlled and double-click it.

4. Double clicking a KUMO’s icon launches your Window XP PC’s default browser. The

browser will display the KUMO web interface. Use it to control KUMO.

If you don’t see a KUMO icon under “Local Network” on My Network Places, ensure there
is either a direct connection or LAN connection and the KUMO is powered up. With those
requirements satisfied, if no Icon can be seen, then likely the UPnP services are disabled.
