cable modem/router. (If you are connecting a hub or a switch, this is typically called an Uplink or
Expansion port.) If you are connecting a computer or game station, go to step 5 of this
section.
3 If you are connecting a network device such as a switching hub, use the instructions that came
with that device. Then reboot any computer that is part of your network. For example, if you
connected a switching hub, reboot any computer that will be connected to that switching hub.
4 If you are connecting a HomePlug adapter pair with one adapter plugged into the cable
modem/router and an AC outlet, and the other adapter plugged into a computer or game station
and an AC outlet, make those connections and then go to step 5.
5 Verify that your Internet connection is working. Open a Web browser on each computer that's
using your network and try to connect to a familiar Web address.
Note: If at any time you need to make changes to the cable modem/router's configuration, open
a web browser from any PC on your cable modem/router's network and type http://192.168.0.1
to open the Zoom Configuration Manager. Alternately, you can connect a computer directly to
the cable modem/router, open its browser, and then type http://192.168.0.1.
6 Congratulations! You have connected an additional device to the Internet. You can connect up
to 4 Ethernet-capable devices to the cable modem/router, following the instructions above for
each device and starting at step 2 of this section.
If you want to set up a wireless network, please refer to
Wireless
Network. (Most newer Windows 7, Vista, and XP computers with built-in
wireless networking capabilities do not require the installation of a wireless component. If
this is the case, you should set up that computer's wireless connection if it isn't already
configured using the Windows 7, Vista, or XP connect utility. See
instructions.)
If you want to configure advanced options, continue with the section Logging in to the
Zoom Configuration Manager. Then refer to the
this User Manual for instructions for the feature(s) you want to configure.
