Charge only
— If selected, the Jetpack will only draw power from the USB port. No
communication is possible between your computer and this device when connected
via USB. Note that a standard USB port does not provide sufficient current to power this
device, so the battery will still be depleted.
•
Ethernet over USB
— If selected, an Ethernet (TCP/IP) connection is established between
the Jetpack and your computer. The computer can access the Internet and the Web-based
interface via the USB connection. For Windows XP, drivers must be installed to enable
Ethernet over USB. The link to download and install these drivers is located on the Home
page. If Ethernet over USB is not available, you can still communicate via Wi-Fi.
