Planning Your Network
Before moving ahead to setup your network, it is a good idea to draw out a
network diagram to help identify your network devices and plan out how to
connect these devices. The illustration below is an example of a network
diagram.
Each port in the modem router can be used for different connections. For
example:
Ethernet 1 – connect to a desktop
Wireless – connect a wireless laptop to the built in wireless access point
To create a network diagram:
For wireless devices, identify the wireless devices you want to include in
the network
For wired devices, identify which modem router port you want to use
for each device
