Connecting more Devices through a Hub to the
700
The AcerRouter 700 provides 4 repeater hub ports to allow up to 4 PCs or
Workstations to be connected to it directly. If you want to connect more devices, you
can connect an external hub to LAN port 1.
The uplink switch is used to set LAN port 1 as an uplink port. To set the uplink
switch:
Step 1
Plug one end of a 10Base-T LAN cable into Port 1 of the AcerRouter 700,
and the other end of the 10Base-T cable into any 10Base-T LAN port on a
hub.
Step 2
Turn the AcerRouter 700 over, and locate a small rectangular hole in the
bottom of the case. Set the switch to the Uplink position. See Figure 2-2.
