Connecting more than four computers
In certain cases, you may want to share the DIVA LAN ISDN Modem with more than four computers. To do
this, you can connect the DIVA LAN ISDN Modem to an Ethernet hub. This connection requires either a
special Ethernet cable, called a cross-over, or you can use the supplied blue cable if the hub has a cross-over
switch. Try connecting the supplied blue cable to the hub, if the green Ethernet light on the DIVA LAN ISDN
Modem does not light up, you need a special cross-over cable.
Note If the hub is part of a local area network, you will need to adjust configuration settings on the DIVA LAN
ISDN Modem. See “Installing on an existing LAN” on page 112 for details.
