Getting to Know the Broadband Network Bridge
Rear Panel Ports
Uplink | Share your Internet access over your entire phoneline network  | 
  | by connecting to your DSL or Cable modem through the  | 
  | Broadband Bridge's uplink port. The uplink port can also con-  | 
  | nect to Ethernet devices such as hubs, routers, and switches.  | 
  | If the uplink port is occupied, the port to its direct right (Port  | 
  | 3) will be inoperable. Any connections made through Port 3  | 
  | will be lost.  | 
10BaseT | Connect an Ethernet PC (or any other Ethernet device) to  | 
  | your HomeLink phoneline network through one of the  | 
  | 10BaseT ports. If you plan on using Port 3, the Uplink port  | 
  | will become unavailable.  | 
HomeLink | Use the HomeLink port to   | 
  | Bridge to your HomeLink network. This port is configured as  | 
  | a   | 
  | into the Bridge through one side of the HomeLink port, then  | 
  | continues out the other. Connect one HomeLink telephone  | 
  | cable into one side of Port 1, then continue (with another  | 
  | cable) to your next HomeLink device through the port's other  | 
  | side. See page 7 of this User Guide for further information.  | 
Power | Connect your power adapter to your Broadband Bridge  | 
  | through the Power port.  |
