Connecting several devices to a modem with a router
Caution
• Depending on your Internet service contract, you
may not be able to connect multiple devices, such as
several computers and an Airboard. Check with your
cable television company, ADSL network
administrator, or Internet service provider.
• To determine what kind of LAN cable to use, see the
user’s manual for your router, cable modem, or
ADSL modem.
• For details on setting up the connection, cross-refer
to the user’s manual for your router, cable modem, or
ADSL modem.
Configuring router settings
• If the user’s manual for your router directs you to use a web browser (Internet Explorer or Netscape
Navigator) to access the router’s settings screen, input the router’s IP address in the Airboard’s Internet
address field to display the settings screen. See page 23 for more on how to input to the address field.
You must also configure network settings for the Airboard. See page 17 for more on how to configure
network settings.
• For more information on configuring router settings, refer to the user’s manual for your device.
• The settings for some routers cannot be configured from the Airboard’s Internet screen.
* What is a router?
A router is a piece of equipment that relays signals between networks.
Using a router allows several devices to share one Internet connection.
See page 17 for more on how to configure router settings.
