Connecting To The Lan - SMC Networks D3G0804W User Manual

Connecting to the LAN

Using an Ethernet LAN cable, you can connect the Gateway to a desktop computer, notebook, hub, or
switch. The Gateway supports auto-MDI/MDIX, so you can use either a standard straight-through or
crossover Ethernet cable.
1. Connect either end of an Ethernet cable to one of the four LAN ports on the rear panel of the
Gateway (see Figure 3).

network device (see Figure 4).
