Network Assistant
LaCie Network Assistant detects all network attached storage de-
vices on your network and gives you easy ways to connect to or
configure them.
Once installed and running, Network Assistant will appear in your
task bar (Windows users,
Fig. 07
) or in the menu bar (Mac users,
Fig. 08
) and automatically search for storage devices on your net-
work. When a new device is found, an info bubble containing the
name of the device will appear.
When Network Assistant finds your LaCie 5big Network, you can
connect to any of the shares on the 5big Network, log in to the Ad-
ministration Page, or configure the 5big Network’s network settings,
all from the Network Assistant menu.
