Accessing the
Router using the
3Com Detect
Application The 3Com Detect application works by automatically locating your
Router, establishing what IP address it is using and then launching your
default web browser to connect directly to it.
The application will only locate your Router if it is on the same subnet as
the PC on which the application is running. It will not be able to locate
your Router if there is another router between your PC and the Router.
Note that the 3Com detect application is only designed to run on
Windows operating systems.
Running the 3Com
Detect Application The CD-ROM that comes with this Router contains, in addition to the
documentation, the 3Com Detect Application.
To use 3Com Detect to connect to the Web interface of your Router, do
the following:
On the computer that is connected to your Router (either directly or on a
network that is on the same subnet), insert the CD-ROM into its CD drive.
If you have autorun enabled, you will be presented with a menu showing
the contents of the CD-ROM. Select the 3Com Detect Application link to
install the utility. Follow the onscreen instructions.
If the auto-run program does not start, you should browse to your
CD-ROM drive, go to the /3Com detect directory and double click on
setup.exe. Follow the prompts that will take you through the installation
process.
Once installed, the 3Com Detect Application can be accessed from the
Windows Start/Programs list.
When the 3Com Detect application starts, you will see the Welcome
Screen, see
Figure 15 .
