Connecting to a Network Adapter
Before you connect your computer to a network, the computer must have a
network adapter installed and a network cable connected to it.
To connect a network cable:
1 Connect the network cable to the network adapter connector on the
back of your computer.
NOTE: Insert the cable
until it clicks into place,
and then gently pull it to
ensure that it is secure.
2 Connect the other end of the network cable to a network connection
device, such as a network wall jack.
NOTE: Do not use a
network cable with a
telephone wall jack.
