Connecting Computers to the LAN Port

If you would like to surf the web using the FRITZ!Box or to
open the FRITZ!Box user interface, then you must connect
a computer with the FRITZ!Box.
A computer can be connected with the FRITZ!Box in two
different ways:
•
via a LAN port
•
wirelessly via WLAN
Note the following when connecting computers to the
FRITZ!Box:
•
One computer can be connected to the FRITZ!Box by
only one of these means.
•
At each of the network ports of the FRITZ!Box, a com-
puter can be connected directly or via a hub/switch.
•
Using WLAN you can connect multiple computers
with the FRITZ!Box at the same time.
•
The way a computer is connected to the FRITZ!Box is
the same regardless of the operating system on the
computer.
•
All of the computers connected with the FRITZ!Box
constitute a network.
If you would like to connect a computer to the LAN port of
the FRITZ!Box, make sure the computer is equipped with a
LAN port (network adapter). A LAN port is usually desig-
nated by the icon at left or labeled "LAN".
