3.1.2 Step 2. Connecting computers or a Network.

If your LAN has no more than four computers, use Ethernet cables

to connect computers directly to the built-in switch on the device.

You should attach one end of the Ethernet cable to any of the port

labeled 1 – 4 on the rear panel of the router and connect the other

end to the Ethernet port of a computer.

If your LAN has more than four computers, attach one end of an

Ethernet cable to a hub or a switch (probably an uplink port; refer to

the hub or switch documentations for instructions) and the other to

the Ethernet switch port (labeled 1 – 4) on the iPBX30.

You can use either crossover or straight-through Ethernet cables to

connect the built-in switch and computers, hubs or switches as the

built-in switch allows connections with either type of cables.

Attach the AC adapter to the POWER input jack on the back of the

device and plug in the adapter to a wall outlet or a power strip.

3.1.4 Step 4. Powering on iPBX30, the ADSL or cable

modem and power up your computers

Plug the AC adapter to the power input jack of iPX30. Turn on your

ADSL or cable modem. Turn on and boot up your computer(s) and

any LAN devices such as wireless AP, hubs or switches.
