LAN

The computer is equipped with LAN circuits that support Ethernet LAN (10 megabits per second, 10BASE-T) and Fast Ethernet LAN (100 megabits per second, 100BASE-TX), or Gigabit Ethernet LAN (1000megabits per second, 1000BASE-T). This section describes how to connect/disconnect to and from a LAN.

If you use Gigabit Ethernet LAN (1000megabits per second, 1000BASE-T), be sure to connect with CAT5e OR CAT6 cable.

Do not install or remove an optional memory module while Wake-up on LAN is enabled.

Wake-up on LAN does not work without the AC adapter. Leave it connected, if you are using this feature.

Connecting the LAN cable

The computer must be configured properly before connecting to a LAN. Logging onto a LAN using the computer's default settings could cause a malfunction in LAN operation. Check with your LAN administrator regarding set-up procedures.

If you are using Fast Ethernet LAN (100 megabits per second, 100BASE- TX), be sure to connect with a CAT5 cable. You cannot use a CAT3 cable.

If you are using Ethernet LAN (10 megabits per second, 10BASE-T), you can connect with either a CAT5 or a CAT3.

If you use Gigabit Ethernet LAN (1000megabits per second, 1000BASE-T), be sure to connect with CAT5e OR CAT6 cable.

To connect the LAN cable, follow the steps below.

1.Turn off the power to the computer and to all external devices connected to the computer.
