LAN

A jack enables easy connection to a local-area network without the need of

a PC Card or other adaptor.

Features

The Multi Media Port Replicator has built-in support for Ethernet LAN and

Fast Ethernet LAN.

Using the LAN

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.

Connecting

To connect the LAN cable, follow the steps below.

The Wake-up on LAN feature will not work if an AC adaptor is not

connected.

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

connected to the Multi Media Port Replicator and to the computer.
