environment as well as personal preference and available equip-

ment. This section outlines two of the most common ways:

1. Using a wired LAN (Local Area Network)
2. Using a wireless LAN

Using a Wired LAN
To connect to the Internet via a wired LAN environment, typi-

cally an Ethernet port or a broadband modem must be within

the reach of the networking cable you are using.

1. Connect an Ethernet networking cable into the LAN port

of your eo a7400 and then connect the other end into

your broadband modem or the appropriate LAN port as

instructed by your network administrator.

2. If your network or Internet Service Provider (ISP) uses a

Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) server (as many do)

you should find that you can already connect to the internet.

If not, continue to the next step.

3. Tap on START g Control Panel and then tap on “View

network status and tasks” under the “Network and Internet”

category.
