Chapter 4: Software support

If you plug the network cable into a different port while Express Gate is running

(e.g. move the cable from LAN1 to LAN2), you may need to press the “Refresh”

button to detect the change.

• The most common scenario is for your computer to automatically obtain

network settings (i.e. DHCP). If this is the case, you don’t need to click

Setup

for any LAN port. If this is not the case, click

Setup to configure the static IP

settings manually.

• If you have wireless network, click

Setup for the WiFi option. In the WiFi tab of

the

Advanced Network Settings box, enter the name of your wireless access

point in the

SSID field. If your wireless access point has security enabled,

select the corresponding security algorithm from the drop-down list (e.g.

WEPAUTO) in the

Encryption Type field, and enter the password.

Click

OK to enable WiFi and establish the wireless connection.

• If you use a network cable connected directly to your DSL/cable modem (no

router in between), click

Setup for xDSL/cable dial-up. This method is also

referred to as PPPoE. Choose whether the DSL/cable modem is connected

to your computer’s LAN port. Then enter the username and password for your

dial-up account.

Click

OK to enable xDSL/cable dial-up and establish the PPPoE connection.

When PPPoE is enabled, the port it uses will automatically be unchecked and

grayed out.

Using the Photo Manager

Express Gate provides a easy-to-use

Photo Manager that allows you to view

pictures stored in your hard drive or external storage devices (such as USB

dongles, card readers, or optical disks). You can view pictures in thumbnail view;

in an enlarged view individually; in a filename/data list view; or play them in a

slideshow with background music and fancy transition effects. JPEG, GIF, BMP,

and PNG formats are supported. Refer to the on-line Help for detailed software

operation.
