By default, the thin client attempts to contact a DHCP server on your network
during bootup. If you have a DHCP server on your network, then the thin client
will acquire an IP address automatically and no further network configuration is
required on your part. However, there are additional options available.

wired connection if available. To change the network for your connection:
