Note: A "cross-over" or "straight-through" cable can be used
on the DHN-1000 Ethernet port. The DHN-1000 will auto-detect
a "straight-through" or "cross-over" cable, and make the
appropriate connections.
Problem 4: What if I can't connect to the network and
suspect a faulty RJ-11 cable.
Solution

Note: Theoretically, 30 PC's are the maximum accommodated on
the network, with the entire length of cable not exceeding 150
meters (500 feet). However, due to phone line conditions, D-
Link recommends 5 to 10 PC's on your HPNA network.
Note: After installing a 10/100 NIC card, make sure that the
card and hub both have "link lights" when connected.
Check for proper installation of HPNA PCI and HPNA USB
adapters in your Operating System.
Refer to pages 14 & 15 under Computer
Identification and Workgroup name.
Refer to pages 27 thru 39 for configuring both
dynamic and static addresses for TCP/IP.
You may wish to plug a standard phone into an
active phone jack to test both the line and the cable.
