Figure 7 Connecting Cables to the ANG-1100 (ANG-1105 shown)

3Plug an Ethernet cable into the External port as shown in Figure 7.

4Plug the opposite end of this cable into a DSL or cable modem.

NOTE

If you have a DSL modem, you will need to get an IP address from your provider and configure it. This condition may also exist for selective cable customers. Some cable internet providers require that you supply the MAC address of your computer. Refer to Chapter 3 for directions.

Serial Connection

The ANG-1105 is equipped with one 9-pin DB-9 port for use as a console port. You can then start a Hyperterminal session or establish a link using another terminal emulator.

Connecting an ANG-1105

To connect the ANG-1105 serial port, connect one end of a null modem cable (female-to-female) to the DB-9 port and another to the DB-9 port on your PC.
