Installing the Wireless Barricade g Router

Attach to Your Network Using Ethernet Cabling

The four LAN ports on the Router auto-negotiate the connection
speed to 10 Mbps Ethernet or 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, and the
transmission mode to half duplex or full duplex.

Use twisted-pair cable to connect any of the four LAN ports on
the Router to an Ethernet adapter on your PC. Otherwise, you
can cascade any of the LAN ports on the Router to an Ethernet
hub or switch, and then connect your PC or other network
equipment to the hub or switch. When inserting an RJ-45 plug,
be sure the tab on the plug clicks into position to ensure that it is
properly seated.

Warning: Do not plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45

port. This may damage the Router. Instead, use only
twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform
with FCC standards.
