Connecting the Wireless Gateway to Your Network
13
The gateway also uses Ethernet networking for cable
connections to your wired network, as well as for
connecting to the Internet through a cable or DSL modem.
Ethernet networking uses special Ethernet cables to
connect computers, printers, and other devices together.
Among the advantages of Ethernet networking is a higher
network speed (up to 100 Mbps), and the ability to use
Ethernet hubs to expand your network.
Setting up Ethernet Networking
To set up Ethernet (wired) networking in your home
1 Connect the external cable or DSL modem to your
gateway.
See “External Cable and DSL Modem Connections” on
page 11.
2 If you haven’t done so already, install or connect an
Ethernet network adapter for each computer on your
home network.
Ethernet network adapters, such as the 3Com
HomeConnect Ethernet Network Adapter, can be
purchased at your local electronics retailer.
3 Configure and set up the computers on your home
network.
Again, you may have already completed this step. See
the documentation that came with your Ethernet
network adapter for more details about setting up your
Ethernet network.
4 Connect the gateway to your network
Use the included Ethernet cable to connect the Ethernet
port on the rear panel of the gateway (see “Ethernet”
on page 9) to the Ethernet port of the network adapter
installed in your desktop or notebook computer, or to an
Ethernet hub connected to other computers.
5 If you are using an external cable or DSL modem,
connect it to your gateway.
