Network cables. Use standard 10/100BaseT network (UTP) cables with RJ45
connectors.
•
TCP/IP protocol must be installed on all PCs.
•
For Internet Access, an Internet Access account with an ISP, and a DSL connec-
tion.

1. Choose an Installation Site
Select a suitable place on the network to install the ADW-4302v2.
For best Wireless reception and performance, the ADW-
4302v2 should be positioned in a central location with mini-
mum obstructions between the ADW-4302v2 and the PCs.
Also, if using multiple Access Points, adjacent Access
Points should use different Channels.
2. Connect LAN Cables
Use standard LAN cables to connect PCs to the Switching Hub ports on the ADW-
4302v2. Both 10BaseT and 100BaseT connections can be used simultaneously.
If required, connect any port to a normal port on another Hub, using a standard
LAN cable. Any LAN port on the ADW-4302v2 will automatically function as an
"Uplink" port when required.
