Connecting to a wired network

Your computer has a local area network (LAN) wired connection. A LAN connection uses a network
cable which is sold separately.

Connecting to a local area network (LAN)

Use a LAN connection if you want to connect the computer directly to a router in your home (instead

Connecting to a LAN requires an 8-pin, RJ-45 network cable.
