Ethernet Connection To One Computer - THOMSON RCA DCM245 Manual

Ethernet Connection to one computer

Make the connections to the modem in the following sequence (fig. 29):
1. Connect one end of the coaxial cable to the cable connection in the wall, and the
other end to the connector on the modem labeled "CABLE."
2. Insert the plug from the AC power supply into the power AC jack labeled "9V DC
800mA" on the cable modem and the two-prong plug into an AC outlet.
NOTE: Use only the power supply that accompanied this unit. Using other adapters may
damage the unit.
3. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable (straight-wired, see below) to the Ethernet
port on the back of your computer, and the other end to the ETHERNET port on the
cable modem's back panel.
• Make sure that the Ethernet cable is straight-wired (not "null" or crossover-
wired). However, you will need a crossover-type cable if you are connecting the
modem to a hub, or a hub within a port switch that provides the same function.
