Router using a commercially available LAN or Ethernet cable (CAT5 or
better with RJ45 connector).

Using a wired network provides the best performance, because the
attached devices connect directly to the network and are not subject to
radio frequency interference.
Cautions:
• When plugging or unplugging the LAN cable, hold the plug portion of the
cable. When unplugging, do not pull on the LAN cable but unplug while
pressing down on the lock.
• Do not connect a modular phone cable to the LAN port.
• Since there are various connection configurations, please follow the
specifications of your telecommunication carrier or internet service
provider.
