WARNING

LAN Configuration

Most Fast Ethernet (10/100) Switches/Routers do not support Jumbo Frame and you will not be able to connect to your N8800 after Jumbo Frame is turned on. If this happens, turn off the N8800. Then, power on the N8800 and immediately press and hold the Reset button on the back of the unit for 10 seconds. This will reset your network settings, password, and turn off Jumbo Frame Support.

The N8800 supports two Gigabit Ethernet ports for higher service availability. To configure these ports, choose LAN from the Network menu, and the LAN Configuration screen appears. Press Apply to save your changes.
