Setting up the Network Hardware
What you need
Before you begin connecting ICMs to the network, you need at least the following:
•
PC or other web browser enabled device capable of browsing the setup pages.
•
Router, or wireless router (when using a wireless PDA or tablet)
•
Network Controller hardware.
•
Ethernet hub or switch.
The following illustration shows a network setup with a Honeywell Security system,
a Honeywell thermostat, a network router and a computer.
Installing a Router or Wireless Access Point
A router is the easiest and least expensive way to setup a home network. If the home
has a network, it probably already has a router. If the home has a broadband Internet
connection, it may already have a router.
