In refer to the Linksys website, www.linksys.com Windows 2000, go to Files and Folders and use the “Search for a Computer” option. •• If this doesn’t work, choose the Network option of the Control Panel to check that a TCP/IP protocol is installed. If it isn’t installed, use Add - Protocol - Microsoft - TCP/ IP to install it. In Windows 2000, click Install, not Add. •• Check the network bindings. First, make sure that the TCP/IP protocol is bound to your network card (NIC). Then, select your network card in the Control Panel, click Properties, and choose the Bindings tab. If TCP/IP is not bound (checked), check it. •• Make sure that the TCP/IP -> network card entry is bound to the Client for Microsoft Networks service. Select the TCP/IP entry for your network Card, click Properties, and then choose the Bindings tab. If Client for Microsoft Networks is not bound (checked), check it. •• If you don’t have a router, make sure that your IP Address is compatible with the Storage Link’s IP Address. This means it needs to be in the same address range (e.g. 192.168.1.3 to 192.168.1.254) and using the same Subnet Mask (e.g. 255.255.255.0) •• If you do have a router, check that your Gateway IP Address is set correctly. Ask your LAN administrator for the correct value. •• If you have changed the name of the Storage Link, change the name back to the default name.

Therefore, we insist that any patent license version 2, hence the version number 2.1.] obtained for a version of the library must be consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license. Preamble Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered The licenses for most software are designed to take away by the ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU the GNU Lesser General Public License, applies to certain General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your designated libraries, and is quite different from the freedom to share and change free software—to make ordinary General Public License. We use this license for sure the software is free for all its users. certain libraries in order to permit linking those libraries into non-free programs. This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially designated software packages—typically When a program is linked with a library, whether libraries—of the Free Software Foundation and other statically or using a shared library, the combination of authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we the two is legally speaking a combined work, a derivative suggest you first think carefully about whether this license of the original library. The ordinary General Public or the ordinary General Public License is the better strategy License therefore permits such linking only if the entire to use in any particular case, based on the explanations combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General below. Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with the library. When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses We call this license the “Lesser” General Public License are designed to make sure that you have the freedom because it does Less to protect the user’s freedom than to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this the ordinary General Public License. It also provides service if you wish); that you receive source code or can other free software developers Less of an advantage over get it if you want it; that you can change the software and competing non-free programs. These disadvantages are use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License informed that you can do these things. for many libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain special circumstances. To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special to surrender these rights. These restrictions translate to need to encourage the widest possible use of a certain certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve the library or if you modify it. this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free library does the same For example, if you distribute copies of the library, job as widely used non-free libraries. In this case, there is whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients little to gain by limiting the free library to free software all the rights that we gave you. You must make sure that only, so we use the Lesser General Public License. they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide complete In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non- object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them free programs enables a greater number of people to use with the library after making changes to the library and a large body of free software. For example, permission to recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many they know their rights. more people to use the whole GNU operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating system. We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library, and (2) we offer you this license, Although the Lesser General Public License is Less which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/ protective of the users’ freedom, it does ensure that the or modify the library. user of a program that is linked with the Library has the
