3. Ethernet Installation
The LAN port you are using is auto-negotiating 10/100/1000Mbps (Switch)
Ethernet Interface. You can use the Ethernet port to connect to the Internet
with an Ethernet network device such as NIC/Hub/Switch through RJ45.
Before you connect to and install the cable modem, please set the IP address
to "Obtain an IP address automatically" as below and do ensure the TCP/IP
protocol is installed on your system and configured correctly in your PC.
Following is an example of configuring the TCP/IP Protocol on Windows
Operating Systems:
