modem (may be integrated in the router) to the Internet, and an Ethernet cable

Connecting the base to the local network (router)

For this, your base requires an IP address in the local network. The base is usually
assigned this address automatically by the router (dynamic assignment).

the router. In such cases, you will need to assign an IP address to the base manually
(static assignment).
