Setting Up Your Inspiron Desktop

Connect the Network Cable

(Optional)

A network connection is not required to

complete your computer setup, but if you have

an existing network or Internet connection that

uses a cable connection (such as a broadband

device or Ethernet jack), you can connect

it now.

NOTE: Use only an Ethernet cable to

connect to the network connector

(RJ45 connector). Connect the telephone

cable only to the modem connector

(RJ11 connector) and not to the network

connector (RJ45 connector).

To connect your computer to a network or a

broadband device, connect one end of the

network cable to the network port or the

broadband device. Connect the other end of

the network cable to the network connector

(RJ45 connector) on the back panel of your

computer. A click indicates that the network

cable has been securely attached.
