Install the Router
You need to provide straight-through Ethernet cables for connecting the router to the local Ethernet network, and to your
xDSL/cable modem for your Internet connection. For more information on these cables, refer to the “Cabling Specifications”
chapter in the hardware installation guide that comes with the router.
Follow these steps to connect the router to your local network and to the Internet:
Step 1 Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the 10/100 ETHERNET port (the port on the right).
Step 2 Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to a 10-, 100-, or 10/100-Mbps port on the hub or switch. The router senses
the port speed and duplex mode and then operates at the same speed and duplex.
