Connecting the Instrument to the Internet
You can connect the instrument to a full-time online connection (ADSL, optical fiber,
cable Internet, etc.) via a router or a modem equipped with a router.
Use a computer to connect to the Internet and get online before connecting
the instrument, since no modem or router settings can be made from the
instrument itself.
To use the Internet connection, you will first need to subscribe to an Internet service or
provider.

NOTE
Depending on the Internet
connection, you may not be
able to connect to two or
more devices (for example, a
computer and the
instrument), depending on
the contract with the
provider. This means you
cannot connect with the
DDK-7. If in doubt, check
your contract or contact your
provider.
