modem, Ethernet local area network (LAN), or AirPort Extreme network, you can find
more information in Appendix C, “Connecting to the Internet,” on page 77.
Connecting to a Network
If you want to connect your Mac mini to an Ethernet network, cable or DSL modem, or
a wireless network, see “Connecting With Ethernet (10/100Base-T)” on page 47 and
“Understanding AirPort Extreme Wireless Networking” on page 40 for more information
about setting up an Ethernet or AirPort connection. Also open Mac Help (see page 24)
and search for “Ethernet” or “AirPort” for further help.
