Connect the Internet Broadband Router :
1. Plug in one end of the network cable to the WAN port of the 4-port
Internet Broadband Router.

or Cable modem.
3. Use another network cable to connect to the Ethernet card on the computer
system, the other end of the cable connects to the LAN port of the Internet

you can connect up to four computers directly to the unit. There you do
not have to buy a switch to connect these computers since one Internet
