Configuring your Router and PC to Use the UPnP Protocol
To configure the XTi device using Web interface, you are first required to enable the UPnP protocol.
UPnP automatically discovers all network devices and adds the XTi device to “My Network Places”.
Proceed as follows:
1.
On your router
– make sure UPnP is enabled (this is the default setting).
2.
On your PC
– check if UPnP is enabled. If UPnP is disabled, enable it now as follows:
Once UPnP is enabled, you can access your XTi device using “My Network Places”, as explained in the
following section.
