Power port (DC 5V) Connect the supplied power adapter here. 10/100BaseT LAN port Use standard LAN cables (RJ45 connectors) to connect your PCs to these ports. If required, any port can be connected to another hub. Any LAN port will automatically function as an "Uplink" port when necessary. WAN port (10/100BaseT) Connect the DSL or Cable Modem here. If your modem came with a cable, use the supplied cable. Otherwise, use a standard LAN cable.
Chapter 2 Installation 2 Requirements • Network cables. Use standard 10/100BaseT network (UTP) cables with RJ45 connectors. • TCP/IP protocol must be installed on all PCs. • For Internet Access, an Internet Access account with an ISP, and either of a DSL or Cable modem (for WAN port usage) • To use the Wireless Access Point, all Wireless devices must be compliant with the IEEE802.11b or IEEE802.11g specifications. Procedure Figure 4: Installation Diagram 1.
5. Check the LEDs • The Power LED should be ON. • For each LAN (PC) connection, the LAN should be ON (provided the PC is also ON.) • The WAN LED should be ON.
