As the SMC2585W-G allows only one administrator to log on for management, you have to
log off before another can log on. If you forget to log off or have not interacted with the Web
management interface for a period specified by the Web admin idle timeout setting (default:
5 minutes), you'll be automatically logged off by the SMC2585W-G.

UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) enables a Windows XP user to automatically discover pe-

My Network Places of Windows XP. The SMC2585W-G can be given a user-friendly name
that will be shown in My Network Places. Double-clicking the icon in My Network Places that
refers to the SMC2585W-G will launch the Web browser for you to configure the
SMC2585W-G.
NOTE:
