Connecting the Hardware
NOTE:
A standard Belkin network cable cannot be used to directly connect two computers.
A specially wired cable called a crossover cable is needed to allow you to connect
two computers without the use of a network hub or switch. Belkin crossover cables
are yellow (Belkin part number A3X126-XX-YLW-M).

Understanding LED Behavior
There are three LEDs on the Belkin Gigabit USB 2.0 Network Adapter
and their behavior is described as follows:
This LED lights up as soon as the Adapter is plugged
into an empty USB slot and starts receiving power through
the USB port.
This LED remains lit solid when connected to a
Gigabit Ethernet 1000Mbps router, switch, or any other
networking device. This LED blinks when connected to a
Fast Ethernet 100Mbps router, switch, or any other
networking device.
This LED is lit as soon as the link is established
between the Adapter and any other 10Mbps, 100Mbps, or
1000Mbps networking device using a CAT5 cable. This LED
blinks representing data flow when there is Tx or Rx activity
across the link.
