Chapter 3: Installing the Instant GigaDrive
Overview This chapter instructs you on how to physically connect the Instant GigaDrive to your network. This chapter also covers the hook-up of a printer on the Instant GigaDrives print server port. Please note, however, that the Instant GigaDrive will perform equally well as a storage device with or without an attached printer. If you arent interested in taking advantage of the Instant GigaDrives print server function, skip any steps that deal with printer installation. The Instant GigaDrives installation process will work fine without them.
Note: Make sure the TCP/IP protocol has been configured on your network PCs before installing the Instant GigaDrive.

2 Beeps

5 Beeps
Step-by-step Hardware Installation 1. Determine if the Instant GigaDrive will be installed onto a network or directly to a PC. If connecting the Instant GigaDrive to a network device, the Uplink button located on the Instant GigaDrives rear pane should not be pressed. If connecting directly to a PC, the Uplink button should not be pressed in. If it is, press it once to release it. 2. Connect the network cable that came with the Instant GigaDrive to the LAN port. Connect the other end of the cable to your hub, switch, or PC. 3. Connect a printer to the Instant GigaDrive. Connect a standard printer cable to the GigaDrives rear-panel printer port. Connect the other end of the cable to your printer. 4. Connect the power supply. Plug the supplied power cord into the Instant GigaDrives Power port that is located on the rear panel. Connect the power cord to a power outlet.
5. Power on. Locate the Instant GigaDrives power switch on the rear panel. Press it once to power on the Instant GigaDrive. Then, power on the network printer, if you attached one to the Instant Gigadrive. 6. Now that its power is on, the Instant GigaDrives boot process will begin. The Instant GigaDrive will run a brief self-test (two or three seconds) prior to actually booting up. During the Self-Check, most of the GigaDrives LEDs will be lit up or flashing. This should take a few minutes. The initial bootup, will take a bit longer, as well as any bootup following an improper shutdown. 7. When most of the LEDs turn off, leaving only the Ready LED lit up (and not blinking), the GigaDrives boot up is complete. If the Error LED is flashing, or if the GigaDrive repeatedly beeps, there is a hardware problem. Review the Beeper Codes section in Chapter Two for possible solutions.

Appendix A: Troubleshooting
1. The GigaDrive Utility cant find my Instant GigaDrive. Check that the GigaDrive is properly installed, that the LAN connections are secure, and that the GigaDrive is powered ON. If you are using a router, make sure that your PC and the Instant GigaDrive are on the same network segment. Make sure that your PC has the TCP/IP network protocol loaded. This is done by checking the Network option of the Control Panel. If an entry for TCP/IP -> Network card is not listed, use Add - Protocol - Microsoft TCP/IP to add it. 2. The GigaDrive is configured, but I cant find it in Network Neighborhood. Go to the Find function in the Start menu. Choose Computer, then enter the GigaDrives name. In Windows 2000, go to Files and Folders to search the Computer option. If this doesnt work, choose the Network option of the Control Panel to check that a TCP/IP protocol is installed. If it isnt installed, use Add Protocol - Microsoft - TCP/IP to install it. In Windows 2000, click on Install, not Add. In Windows NT, click on the Protocols tab, then Add. Check the network Bindings. First, ensure that the TCP/IP protocol is bound to your Network card (NIC). Then, select your Network card in the Control Panel, click Properties, and choose the Bindings tab. If TCP/IP is not bound (checked), check it. Ensure that the TCP/IP -> Network card entry is bound to the Client for Microsoft Networks service. Select the TCP/IP entry for your Network Card, click Properties, and then choose the Bindings tab. If Client for Microsoft Networks is not bound (checked), check it. If you dont have a router, ensure that your IP Address is compatible with the Instant GigaDrives. This means it needs to be in the same address range (e.g. 192.168.1.3 to 192.168.1.254) and using the same Subnet Mask (e.g. 255.255.255.0) If you do have a router, check that your Gateway IP Address is set correctly. Ask your LAN administrator for the correct value. Change the name back to the default Gigadrive name.

3. When I click on the GigaDrive icon in Network Neighborhood, Im prompted for a password. This can happen in the following situations: Your Windows Logon name is recognized by the GigaDrive, but your Logon password is not. Simply enter your GigaDrive password, or make your Windows password the same as the GigaDrive password. Your Windows Logon name is not recognized by the GigaDrive, defaulting you to guest access rights. Ask the GigaDrive Administrator to create a user name for you. (Use the same name as your Logon name.) You do not have access permission for this share. Ask the GigaDrive Administrator to grant you access. 4. When using the Web interface, some of the data will not fit on the screen, and there is no scroll bar. You are likely using extra-large fonts in your Browser or in Windows. To change your browsers font size, select View from your web-browsers menu, and change the font size there. To change the size of your Windows fonts, go to Display in the Control Panel. Choose Settings, then click the Advanced button. Change the font size to either Small or Large. Both should work. 5. A print job does not print and no error message is displayed. The amount of free disk space on the GigaDrive is probably not sufficient to spool (queue) the print job. The GigaDrives disk usage can be checked using the Status - Disk screen on the GigaDrives Administrator interface. If this is the problem, you must delete some print jobs. 1. Select Printer from the Status menu of the GigaDrives Administrator interface. 2. Use the Delete Current Job option to delete the current print job, or Delete All Jobs to delete all print jobs.

EtherFast Network Attached Storage (80GB) with PrintServer
Easily Add 80GB of Storage and a Print Server to Your Network!
ow you can quickly and easily add eighty gigabytes of storage space onto your network with the EtherFast Instant GigaDrive from Linksys. This stand-alone Network Attached Storage device features two hard drive bays -- one with an 80GB drive in it, and the other available so you can add an additional up to 120GB IDE hard drive as your storage needs grow. You can even replace the original 80GB drive with another 120 for a total of 240GB! Installation of the Instant Gigadrive is simple -- just plug it directly into your 10/100 network, and it's instantly available. It can serve as your network's DHCP server, and also has a built-in Print Server so you can add a network printer without burdening a PC with spooling chores. The Instant Gigadrive features built-in disk utilities, accessible through your web browser. You can run a self test, and scan or defrag the disk(s). If you've installed a second disk drive, you can back up one drive to the other, either manually or on a schedule. Additional quickconnect hard drive trays are available, so you can quickly swap the backup drive to create rotating backups. For even more flexibility and utility, the Instant Gigadrive can be set up to be accessible directly from the Internet -- up- or downloading files either via a web browser, or by FTP. Files can be available publicly, or create password-protected accounts for your authorized users. You can even use the Instant Gigadrive as an Internet print server, saving fax machine phone charges and using the internal hard drive space to spool and print high-resolution color pages from anywhere in the world. The EtherFast Instant GigaDrive is a powerful, flexible and economical addition to your network.
