dor for replacements:

• USB Network Adapter

Connecting the USB Network Adapter

The USB Network Adapter comes with a USB
cable. One end of the cable has a rectangular plug,
which is called an A-type connector. The other
end of the cable has a square plug, or B-type con-
nector.

The adapter has two ports. One is for RJ-45 UTP
network cabling -- it looks like and over-sized
phone jack. The other port looks like a square hole
-- this is the USB B-type port.

1. Make sure your PC is powered on and that you
are at the Windows 98 desktop.

2. Insert the cable’s square B-type plug into the
adapter’s B-type port.
