Hello, Louise
My name is Zach. I have an Mpower and I just found some stuff
right out of the manual. It is in quotation marks below:
"?13.6.2 Using a LAN connection.
LAN is an acronym for Local Area Network. We use the term in
this user guide to refer to networking via an ethernet card and
cable as opposed to wireless networking, which uses a wireless
network card that doesn't need cables. Wireless networking is
discussed separately in 13.4 Using a Wireless Connection.
To establish a LAN connection for your BrailleNote BT, you will
need an Ethernet Card (type Socket Low Power Ethernet (LPE)
EA2902-139, CF+ R/LP - E) - which has a ruggedized, i.e.
connected, cable.
You will also need access to a working ethernet computer network,
via a network capable PC, server, hub/switch/router or DSL modem.
When configuring the connection, use these specific settings:
At the "Device to Use?" prompt, select Ethernet Network.
At the "Obtain an IP address automatically?" setting, ensure it
is set to yes, unless the network uses static IP addresses as in
scenarios a and b below, where it is necessary to enter the IP
address manually. When set to Yes, this setting allows the
network to fill in the rest of the fields automatically except
the proxy server fields.
The scenarios below cover most of the common network
configurations found at work, school or at home. In a work or
school scenario, you may need to involve the network
administrator in this task.
Home Network: If you have one PC and only intend to connect to
the BrailleNote BT, such as in a home user situation (i.e. No
DHCP server, no WINS, maybe gateway), set an IP address in the
same range as the PC's IP address. For example, if the PC's is
10.0.0.1, make the BrailleNote BT's 10.0.0.2. If the PC acts as
a gateway, add a gateway address. If you use a router, the
address is likely to start with 192.168.0.n where n is a number
that uniquely identifies your BrailleNote BT.Note: If another
computer is subsequently attached to the network, it MAY take the
IP address that the BrailleNote BT has. If this happens, one of
the addresses will need to be changed, and setup run again."
Was it useful?
