Connecting via the USB port

The NetGuardian E16's front panel USB craft port
.
1. The simplest way to connect to the NetGuardian is over a physical cable connection between your
PC's USB port and the unit's USB craft port.
Note:
You must be connected via craft port or Telnet
to use the TTY interface. Make sure you are using a standard A-B USB cable (this same cable is
commonly used for USB printers) to make a USB craft port connection. We'll be using
HyperTerminal to connect to the unit in the following example - however, most terminal-emulating
programs are also compatible.
When you first connect the NetGuardian to your PC via USB, a "Found New Hardware" message will
appear:
1. Click the "Found New Hardware" message/icon to launch the "Found New Hardware Wizard".
