3. Ethernet Installation
The LAN port you are using is auto-negotiating 10/100Mbps (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 98 Operating
Systems:
1.
Click
Start
Settings
Control Panel
. Double click on the
Network
icon click
Properties
.
2.
A list of installed network components appears. Look for an entry named TCP/IP. This
entry may be followed by an arrow and a description of the NIC hardware device
installed in the computer. If you don't see "TCP/IP" listed anywhere in the "The
following network components are installed" box, click the
Add
button, choose
Protocol
, and click the
Add
button. Select "Microsoft" as the manufacturer and then
scroll down in the list on the right to find "TCP/IP". If you see "TCP/IP" listed, proceed
to step 4.
3.
Click the
OK
button. You will be prompted to insert the Windows 98
installation/upgrade CD.
4.
Scroll down in the box until you find a line that says "TCP/IP -> " followed by the name
of your Ethernet adapter. Click on
Properties
and choose "Obtain an address
automatically" which means that your PC has been configured to use DHCP (Dynamic
Host Configuration Protocol).

Click
OK

Congratulations! You have successfully set up your cable modem.
