LAN

The computer has built-in support for Ethernet LAN (10 megabits per second,
10BASE-T) and Fast Ethernet LAN (100 megabits per second, 100BASE-Tx).
This section describes how to connect/disconnect to a LAN.

CAUTIONS: 1. Do not install or remove an optional memory module

while Wake-up on LAN is enabled.

2. Do not connect any cable other than a LAN cable to

the LAN jack. It could cause damage or malfunction.

3. Do not connect the LAN cable to a power supply. It

could cause damage or malfunction.

NOTES: 1. The Wake-up on LAN function consumes power even when

the system is off. Leave the universal AC adaptor con-
nected while using this feature.

2. When the Wake-up on LAN function is activated, the LAN

indicators do not glow while the computer is in standby
mode (while it is waiting for a LAN wake-up signal).

Connecting LAN cable

CAUTION: The computer must be configured properly before connecting
to a LAN. Logging onto a LAN using the computer’s default settings
could cause a malfunction in LAN operation. Check with your LAN
administrator regarding set-up procedures.

If you are using Fast Ethernet LAN (100 megabits per second, 100BASE-TX), be
sure to connect with a CAT5 cable. You cannot use a CAT3 cable.

If you are using Ethernet LAN (10 megabits per second, 10BASE-T), you can
connect with either a CAT5 or a CAT3.

To connect the LAN cable, follow the steps below.

1. Turn off the power to the computer and to all external devices connected to

the computer.
