Frequently Asked Questions

This section includes a list of questions concerning the Gateway, and answers to
those questions.

General

I have run out of Ethernet ports on my Gateway. How do I add
more computers?
Plugging in an Ethernet hub or switch expands the number of ports on the
Gateway. Run a standard Ethernet cable from the “Uplink” port of the new hub
or switch to an Ethernet port on the Gateway.

Which protocols does the Gateway support?
The internal LAN connections support multiple protocols (e.g. TCP/IP,
NetBEUI, IPX/SPX, and AppleTalk). The External WAN connection supports
only TCP/IP.

Which connection speeds does the Gateway support?
The

LAN

connections on the Gateway support 10/100 Mbps. The

WAN

connec-

tion supports 8 Mbps, because of the physical restrictions placed on broadband
connections. The 802.11g wireless connection supports up to 54 Mbps connec-
tion speeds (depending on signal quality, environmental factors, and physical
distance).
