22 Setting Up the dynadock™ and Connecting Peripherals Connecting your peripherals NOTE The dynadock™ should be connected to a USB 2.0 port for optimal video performance. The dynadock™ will work when connected to a USB 1.1 port, but video performance will be compromised. NOTE Restarting may take longer than usual if the computer's operating system is configured to create a system restore point after a new device is installed. This occurs after initial installation only. When the computer restarts, the dynadock™ is ready to use. Connecting your peripherals Once you have set up a USB cable connection between your computer and the dynadock™, you can connect your computer peripherals to the appropriate ports on the dynadock™. Connecting to a network Connect one end of a network cable (not provided) to the Network port (RJ-45) on the dynadock™ and the other end to your network. If the network is not automatically connected, configure the network properties of the Ethernet adaptor as follows: ❖ In Windows® XP, click Start, Connect to, and then Show all Connections. ❖ In Windows Vista®, click Start, Control Panel, View network status and tasks, and then Manage network connections. ❖ In Windows® 7, click Start, Control Panel, Network and Internet, View network status and tasks, and then Change adapter setting. In the Network Connections folder, double-click the Connection icon for the dynadock's Ethernet adaptor, which is indicated by ASIX USB2.0 to Fast Ethernet Adaptor. This will open the Local Area Connection Properties window for you to configure the network settings as required according to your network environment. If you are unsure about the settings, consult your network administrator for assistance.
