Note For definitions of terms not defined here, see the Network glossary .
We recommend the wired LAN (local area network) configurations below to support
your HP All-in-One.
Ethernet connection to a wired network with DSL or cable Internet access
If your network has DSL or cable Internet access, you can use either a router or a
computer as the Internet gateway. With either DSL or cable, you are able to access
the full functionality of your HP All-in-One, including sharing pictures over the Internet
with HP Instant Share.
Router gateway
In this example, a router manages the network connections, and a DSL or cable
modem provides Internet access. If you use this configuration, connect your HP All-in-
One to the router with an Ethernet cable.
With this configuration, you are able to access the full functionality of the HP All-in-
One, including sharing pictures over the Internet. For connection instructions, see
Connect to an Ethernet network .
Computer gateway
In this example, the network devices are connected to a switch or router. A computer
on the network acts as the gateway between the network and the Internet. The
gateway computer uses Windows Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) or similar
software to manage the network connections and provide Internet access to the other
devices.
