6. Ensure the option “Search for the best driver….” is chosen and click Next.
7. When prompted where you would like to look for the drivers choose “Specify location” and
untick any other boxes. Then click the browse button to select the CD-ROM drive which you
inserted you NetComm CD-ROM into. Then choose the ‘USBdriver’ folder.
