Connecting to a LAN
Connecting to a local area network (LAN) gives you access to network resources, such as
printers and file servers on your corporate network, and possibly to the Internet.

To connect to a LAN

1. Make sure the existing LAN supports Ethernet 10Base-T (10 Mbps) or 100Base-TX
(100 Mbps) connections.
2. Plug the LAN cable (not supplied) into the built-in LAN port on the notebook. The
cable must have an RJ-45 connector.
3. Windows XP automatically detects and sets up a LAN connection. To edit the
settings, open Network Connections in Control Panel.
See Windows Help for information about setting up and using LAN connections—click
Start, Help and Support. Contact your network administrator for network information.
Two lights next to the LAN port indicate the status of the connection: the green light
indicates that a link is established to the network, and the yellow light indicates network
activity.
