To Connect a Network Device
This section provides general instructions for connecting a network
device (such as a wireless access point, router, hub, or switch) to
the X5. For information about setting up your network device,
please refer to the documentation that came with that device.
1 Plug one end of an Ethernet cable into one of the modem’s
ETHERNET ports (1, 2, 3, or 4) and the other end into the
network device’s Ethernet port. (For a hub or a switch, this is
typically called an Uplink or Expansion port. For a router or
wireless access point, this is typically called a WAN port.)
2 Set up your network. Refer to the documentation provided
with your particular network device for instructions on how to
do this.
3 Once your network is set up, reboot any computer that is part
of the network. For example, if you are connecting a wireless
access point, reboot any computer that will use the wireless
network.
4 Verify that your Internet connection is working. Open your
Web browser on each computer using your network and try to
connect to a familiar Web address.
Congratulations! You have connected your network device to the
Internet. You are done with this user’s guide. Enjoy your X5!
