Each network interface is enabled immediately when you check the box next to it. • If you use a network cable connected to a home router (which is then connected to your DSL/cable modem), enable both LAN1 and LAN2. Express Gate will automatically use whichever port (LAN1 or LAN2) is connected. If you plug the network cable into a different port while Express Gate is running (e.g. move the cable from LAN1 to LAN2), you may need to press the "Refresh" button to detect the change. • The most common scenario is for your computer to automatically obtain network settings (i.e. DHCP). If this is the case, you don't need to click Setup for any LAN port. If this is not the case, click Setup to configure the static IP settings manually. 5-36 Chapter 5: Software support

Network
If you use a network cable connected to a home router (which is then
connected to your DSL/cable modem), enable both LAN1 and LAN2. Express
Gate will automatically use whichever port (LAN1 or LAN2) is connected.
The most common scenario is for your computer to automatically obtain
network settings (i.e. DHCP). If this is the case, you don’t need to click
Setup
for any LAN port. If this is not the case, click
Setup
to configure the static IP
settings manually.
If you plug the network cable into a different port while Express Gate
is running
(e.g. move the cable from LAN1 to LAN2), you may need to press the “Refresh”
button to detect the change.
