Hi,
Thanks Blair.
So, the discovery time can not be more quickly??? I think one minute is too
long for waiting for installing. It is just "prepare" and the install is not
start even.
If i do not use the build-in UI, i think, the discovery time is as long as
using the build- in UI. Is it???
Or, is there any other way to fix this problem?
thanks.
