• If you use a network cable connected to a home router (which is then

connected to your DSL/cable modem), enable both LAN1 and LAN2. Express

Gate will automatically use whichever port (LAN1 or LAN2) is connected.

If you plug the network cable into a different port while Express Gate is running

(e.g. move the cable from LAN1 to LAN2), you may need to press the “Refresh”

button to detect the change.

• The most common scenario is for your computer to automatically obtain

network settings (i.e. DHCP). If this is the case, you don’t need to click Setup

for any LAN port. If this is not the case, click Setup to configure the static IP

settings manually.
