Ports 1-4

These four ports connect the router to your LAN or home network
using Ethernet cables. This enables communication among clients,

either 10-BASE-T or 100-BASE-T transmission speeds as well as
straight-through and crossover Ethernet cables.

Any of these four ports can also serve as an uplink port to other
network devices, such as another router or switch, which allows you to
extend your network.

10/100 Mbps as well as straight-through and crossover Ethernet
cables.
