Acer eNet Management

Acer eNet Management offers you a simple-to-use tool to manage your
network connections. You can set up different profiles for connecting to a
network from a variety of different locations, via wired or wireless connections.

Acer eNet Management detects which network environment you're in, and
automatically switches to the appropriate profile. Since the profiles also store
information such as the printer settings for each environment, Acer eNet
Management will set the correct printer default for the selected profile.

Using Acer eNet Management

You can launch Acer eNet Management in a number of ways:

• From the Start menu, go to Start > (All) Programs > Empowering

Technology > Acer eNet Management.

• By clicking on the Empowering Technology icon from your desktop, or

pressing the < > key to launch the Empowering Technology user
interface. Select the Acer eNet Management icon.

This will open the Acer eNet Management main page.

Acer eNet Management Main Page

The Acer eNet Management main page shows you the current connection
status, as well as a list of the available profiles. There are also various profile
management buttons that allow you to create a new profile, edit a profile,
delete a profile, apply a profile, or import or export a profile.

Saving the current connection

If you're connected to a network, and wish to save your settings to a profile,
click the Save button above the connection status information.
