SET UP THE TEST EQUIPMENT
Set up the test equipment as described below.
Connect LAN 0 of the WR44V2 to the switch/hub.
Connect “ASY 0” the WR44V2 to the PC’s serial port 0 ideally “COM 1”.
The Internet connection is optional and will be useful if help is required during this process
from Digi Technical Support.
Please note that the Ethernet switch/hub must not have the spanning tree protocol enabled.
It is possible to use another appropriately configured WR44V2 as a switch/hub.
It is essential that the PC’s Ethernet communication interface is configured correctly and has
an IP address. The best strategy is normally to connect both your PC and the WR44V2 to your
normal office LAN.
Locate a suitable implement to depress the reset button when required.
Next download the following file:

Extract the contents of the zip file to a folder in the root directory of the test PC.
