MAXTOR SHARED STORAGE II WINDOWS INSTALLATION Considerations for Home Media Networks - Some data may not be available for access for up to two (2) hours after being copied to the Shared Storage Drive. To obtain immediate access to these media files, click the Refresh button located in Web UI. - Take a survey and note all of the wireless devices in your household (e.g., radio's, stereo's, speakers, phones, cell phones, microwave ovens, alarms, etc.). - Use of a hand held WiFi detector will help determine strength and weakness of WiFi signals in your home. - Be suspicious of any wireless devices in the same general area and remove them from the WiFi paths of your routers and media players. - In some cases, firewalls may need to be disabled and re-enabled. - Most wireless devices broadcast a wireless frequency by default. Check the documentation of your wireless media players for configuration (WEP) settings. - Check that your wireless router (WEP) security settings will allow detection and connection of new devices. - Try moving your media player within a couple of feet of your wireless router for configuration and connection. - When configuring and detecting wireless devices, keep an Ethernet cable handy to hard wire the devices together for diagnosis. - If you continue to have problems with your WiFi connection dropping off line, consider hardwiring the devices with Cat5e Ethernet cabling. - If you're still having detection issues, reset all network devices by physically unplugging them from power. Power on all routers, switches, the Maxtor Shared Storage Drive, computers, and finally media players. PAGE 19
