A Special Note for Network Interface Connections

Due to any USB connection to your PC being made through a Network Interface Connection (NIC), Windows will automatically
make any new NIC connection the Primary connection. If this happens, the USB address of 12.0.0.x will show up across the PC's
network switches as the PC's source address. In some cases, network administrators will notice the NIC connection and
reconfigure any PC that has connected to the MVP-9000i. Business, college, and government installations are the type of
installations that would be most affected, and most home installations would not be affected.
To prevent the NIC connection from becoming the primary connection:
1. From the Windows Start menu, select Settings > Control Panel to open the Control Panel window.
2. In the Control Panel window, click on the Network Connections icon to open the Network Connections window (FIG. 109)

4. Under the Adapters And Bindings tab, the user needs to make sure the Local Area Connection is not at the top of the
Connections list. If it is at the top of the list (FIG. 110), select it and use the down arrow to the right of the list to move it to the
bottom of the list (FIG. 111).
