Connect the Internet Broadband Router

Hardware connections

Connect the Internet Broadband Router

1.Connect one end of the network cable to the WAN port of the 4-port Internet Broadband Router.

2.Connect the other end of the network cable to the Ethernet port of the xDSL or Cable modem.

3.Connect one end of another network cable to the computer’s Ethernet card and the other end of the cable to one of the Router’s LAN ports. Since the Internet Broadband Router has four ports, you can connect up to four computers directly to the unit. You do not have to buy a switch to connect these computers since the Internet Broadband Router functions as both an Internet connection-sharing unit and as a switch.
