Before installing the NETGEAR ProSafe VPN Client software, read this document for technical issues concerning this release.
If you're installing this product on Windows NT or Windows 2000 or XP, log on as administrator or its equivalent.
Run the setup.exe file on the installation CD-ROM or in the installation package.
Work through the installation wizard. Unless otherwise instructed, accept the defaults.
Note: The SafeNet VPN Adapter, which supports L2TP, is installed only when these network components are already installed on your computer:
Operating system | Component |
Windows 95 | Dial-Up Networking with the Microsoft Dial-Up Networking 1.3 Upgrade |
Windows 98 and Me | Dial-Up Networking |
Windows NT | Remote Access Server (RAS) |
Because Windows 2000 and XP use the native Windows L2TP adapter, the SafeNet L2TP adapter isn't installed on computers running these operating systems.
When the installation completes, click Finish.
To complete the client installation, make sure that your computer restarts.
To upgrade to this version of SoftRemoteLT, take these steps:
Uninstall the current version on your computer through the Control Panel Add/Remove Programs application:

To delete it, click Yes.
When the Maintenance Complete dialog box opens, click Finish.
To complete the uninstall, make sure that your computer restarts.
Install this new version of the NETGEAR ProSafe VPN Client software.
