I just DLd the software for it from Asante's web site. I happen to have 
one of these boxes, I got it an an auction a few years ago. I have used 
it extensively, but never bothered to DL the software, because it always 
just worked.

Needless to say, on mine, I can admin it from the Ethernet side. Running 
the Asante Print Manager software (v 2.4.2), it showed the device right 
away.

So if you aren't seeing it from the Ethernet side, then something may be 
wrong with it. I would be leary of that DC wall wart. And hopefully it 
didn't do damage. (I have the original power supply, and it is most 
definitly a 12vAC brick. It is rated for 1.25 amps just for your 
reference)


On a side issue... now that I have run the software on mine, I find that 
the previous owner put a password on it. Anyone have any idea how to 
default the password so I can get into mine to do some admin if I choose 
(I don't need to since it works just fine the way it is, but it is always 
nice to have full access to the hardware you own).
