Advanced Network Settings for Manual Addressing Most modern routers and broadband modems are able to share your Internet connection using automatic address assignment (DHCP) for computers in your network along with address sharing (NAT). If your networking equipment does not include these features or if you have other requirements or constraints, you may need to manually set an Internet address for Mirra. Contact your broadband Internet provider for more information about sharing your Internet connection and about the type of addressing required for your network. If static IP addressing is required, determine a static IP address or ask your Internet provider to do so. Use the Advanced Network Configuration option to enter this address information.\ If you use static IP addresses and want to move your Mirra to a different network, be sure to update the static IP address to avoid a conflict. Setting Up Multiple Users on One Computer If more than one person logs on to a computer that is backed up to a Personal Server, each person must create an individual Mirra Web Account in order to enable web access and file sharing for that individual's folders. To create a Web Account after another user has already installed and licensed a Mirra, Step 1: Log onto a computer on which another user has already installed the Mirra software and created a Mirra Web Account.

Advanced Network Settings for Manual Addressing
Most modern routers and broadband modems are able to share your Internet
connection using automatic address assignment (DHCP) for computers in your
network along with address sharing (NAT). If your networking equipment does not
include these features or if you have other requirements or constraints, you may
need to manually set an Internet address for Mirra.
Contact your broadband Internet provider for more information about sharing your
Internet connection and about the type of addressing required for your network. If
static IP addressing is required, determine a static IP address or ask your Internet
provider to do so. Use the Advanced Network Configuration option to enter this
address information.\
If you use static IP addresses and want to move
your Mirra to a different network, be sure to
update the static IP address to avoid a conflict.

Mirra,
Step 1:
