Local Network Setup

2.1 Wired Ethernet

Local network The Ethernet ports on the backpanel allow you to connect the SpeedTouch™ to an existing 10 or 100 Base-T Ethernet network or one (or more) computer(s) with installed Ethernet card.

Using the SpeedTouch™ Ethernet switch, you can create a local Ethernet network of up to four devices, without needing extra networking devices.

In the SpeedTouch™ package, a yellow full-wired straight-through RJ-45/RJ- 45 Ethernet cable is included.

Standard wiring Use the yellow Ethernet cable provided to wire your computer's Ethernet port to one procedure of the SpeedTouch™'s Ethernet ports.

The Ethernet cable can also be used to wire any Ethernet port of your SpeedTouch™ to an external hub or switch.

Please follow the installation instructions supplied with the external hub or switch for connections and Ethernet cabling.

Ethernet link check LED indicators allow you to check your Ethernet. See “1.2 SpeedTouch™ LED Behaviour” on page 8 for more information.

Device settings Once you’ve connected a device, you are able to personalise its settings.

For more information, see “ Device settings” on page 19.
