Connecting the OSU to a network
Note: Use only one OSU on a network. Do not use multiple OSUs
on the same network.
To directly connect the OSU to a computer, use the supplied
Ethernet cable (also known as a straight-through cable).
However, to connect the OSU to a hub or switch, use an Ethernet
cable appropriate for your network device. This might be a straight
through or cross-over cable, depending on how your network device
switches signals. When determining how to set up your network,
remember that the OSU device operates as a hub or a bridge.
After connecting the OSU to the network device, power the OSU and
scan for a service provider signal, as described in earlier sections of
this guide.
