Setting Up Your Inspiron™ Desktop
Connect the Network Cable
(Optional)
NOTE: The exact location of connectors
may be different than what is shown.
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
home cable modem or Ethernet jack), you can
connect it now. Use only an Ethernet cable
(RJ45 connector). Do not plug a telephone cable
(RJ11 connector) into the network connector.
To attach your computer to a network or
broadband device, connect one end of the
network cable to either a network port or a
broadband device. Connect the other end of the
network cable to the network adapter connector
on the back panel of your computer. A click
indicates that the network cable has been
securely attached.
