Port
CAUTION! Be sure to read this entire User’s Manual from front to back in
sequence before installing the D-Link DCM-202 USB/Ethernet Broadband Cable
Modem.
This chapter describes how to install the cable modem using the Ethernet port.
Using the Ethernet port enables you to use a single connection to the Internet
or use a hub to connect multiple computers to the cable modem. You can also
use multiple IP addresses from your cable operator when using the Ethernet
connection. See “Installing the Cable Modem Using the USB Port” in this manual
to set up the USB Connection.
You can use the Ethernet port to connect to the Internet with the following
operating systems: Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 98SE, Windows 2000,
Windows Me, Windows NT, or Macintosh 7.6 (or later).

computer has the TCP/IP protocol installed. Follow the procedure for your
operating system to verify or install the TCP/IP protocol.
