Downloading and Installing the Driver for the UP101
Note: This driver is for the Blue Actiontec USB Internet Phone Wizard (IPW). Due to
hardware differences, this driver is NOT compatible with the older Green
Actiontec USB IPW.
1. When you begin the driver download, you are prompted to either "Run" or Save" the file,
select "Save".
2. When you choosing where you want the file to be saved, be sure to select a location that you
are familiar with accessing, like My Documents or the Desktop. That way when the
download has finished, you can find the file(s) easily.
3. The driver download is a ZIP file, which means the driver is stored in a compressed file. To
extract the files stored in it, you need a program like WinZip if you have Windows 2000
(XP has a built in utility).
4. On XP, when the files are extracted it will create the folder,
“UP101_Blue_USB_IPW_RAW-Driver”, and place the driver into that folder. The default
behavior is to create the folder in the same location as the ZIP file it self. So the folder will
be in the same location as the downloaded file, making it easy to find. If you are using
Windows 2000, extract the driver with the program of your choosing.
5. Connect one end of the USB cable to the UP101 and the other end to a USB port on your
Windows PC.
6. When you connect the cable, the Hardware Wizard will open. If you are prompted to use
Windows Update, select “No, not this time.”, and click NEXT.
7. It is very unlikely that Windows would be able to locate the driver on its own, so you will
need to select the option that will allow you to “Specify a specific location.”, and click
NEXT if prompted.
8. Whether or not you needed to click NEXT, you will be prompted to choose the locations
you wish Windows to search. Deselect any Removable Media, like a floppy or CD-ROM,
and instead select the option that allows you to “Specify the location” with a “Browse”
button.
9. Use the “Browse” button to find the “UP101_Blue_USB_IPW_RAW-Driver” folder, and
when you have highlighted that folder, the “OK” or “Open” button will be clickable, click it.
When you do, it will take you all the way back to the Hardware Wizard page where you
initially clicked the Browse button.
10. With the location of the driver files showing in the small text box next to the Browse button,
now click NEXT.
11. When Windows has installed the driver, you will be prompted with a “Finish” button. Click
it to close the Wizard.
