You would simply plug it in a USB port. Then the device will download any software it needs and install itself on your computer.

With a Magic Jack Plus, you can install it with the above instructions. Or, alternately, you can plug the Magic Jack Plus into the included wall adapter which goes in an outlet, and you would connect a network cable directly from the router or the network wall jack if there is one. After plugging it in, it will boot. After a couple of minutes, it will be ready.
