Connecting to an Ethernet network
Your notebook has a network jack that you can use to connect it to a 10/100
Ethernet network.
To connect to a network:
1 Insert one end of the network cable into the network jack on the
left side of the notebook.
2 Insert the other end of the network cable into a network wall jack. Ask
your network administrator to help you select the correct network jack.
Your notebook is now physically connected to the network. Your network
administrator can help you log onto your network.
Broadband Internet connections
You can use your notebook’s Ethernet jack for more than just networking.
Many broadband Internet connections, such as cable modems and DSL
modems, connect to your notebook’s Ethernet jack. For more information,
see “Using the Internet” on page 57 and “Networking Your Notebook” on
page 139.
