Introduction

Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the Network

USB Hub (the Hub) from Belkin. By connecting to your

network router, this innovative sharing tool gives you a great

way to enhance its capabilities, as well as those of all the USB

devices connected throughout your network. It lets you access

your USB devices remotely without the hassle of setting up

network software. Now you can easily print to the USB printer

in your home office from your living room or bedroom—

through any network router.

Setting Up your Network USB Hub

uk-2

The Hub works with Windows® XP and Windows Vista™

(32-bit). In order to use the Hub, you must have a networking

router connecting your network.

1. Preparing for Setup

NOTE: If you are connected to a network router that uses

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), which most

networks do, you do not need to set up your Hub.

1.1 Plug the AC adapter into the Hub.

1.2 Check the Power LED (green). It should be illuminated.

1.3 Plug the Ethernet cable into the Hub.

1.4 Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into your

network router.

2. Installing the Software

IMPORTANT: If you do not install the software on your PC,

the Hub will not work.

2.1 Insert the setup CD into

your CD-ROM drive.

You will see the Hub

Setup CD screen. Click

“Install Control Center”.
