Installation using Ethernet (for Windows 95 or
higher PCs)
This chapter describes the installation and configuration process using the Ethernet
interface in Windows 95 (or higher) PCs.
The Ethernet interface is used for those computers which do not have a USB interface, or
for networking multiple computers on the same broadband line.
This requires a Network Interface Card (NIC). The NIC must be installed in the computer
and the computer must be configured for TCP/IP. When this option is used, a standard
Ethernet cable carries data between the modem and the computer. An Ethernet interface,
used in conjunction with a hub, allows you to link up multiple computers to a single
HM220d ADSL modem.
