2. On your PC –check if UPnP is enabled. If UPnP is disabled, enable it now as follows:
Windows XP –see How to enable the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) in Windows XP ...
Windows Vista and up –UPnP is enabled by default: Enable or disable network discovery
Once UPnP is enabled, you can access your XTi device using “My Network Places”, as explained in the
