Getting Started Connections Setup Operations Troubleshooting Specifications ENGLISH Connections to Other Devices ETHERNET Connections Internet Modem Router To WAN side To LAN port To LAN port Computer LAN port/ Ethernet connector Required System n Broadband Internet Connection A broadband line connection to the Internet is required in order to use the POA-3012CI's firmware update. n Modem This is a device that is connected to the broadband line to communicate with the Internet. Some are integrated with the router. n Router • When using the POA-3012CI, we recommend you use a router equipped with the following functions: · Built-in DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server This function automatically assigns IP addresses on the LAN. · Built-in 100 BASE-TX switch When connecting multiple devices, we recommend a switching hub with a speed of 100 Mbps or greater. n Ethernet Cable (CAT-5 or greater recommended) • The POA-3012CI does not come with an Ethernet cable. • Some flat type Ethernet cables are easily affected by noise. We recommend using a normal type cable. • If the sound is broken in an environment in which there is much power supply noise from electric products or in a noisy network environment, use a shielded type Ethernet cable (For North America model). • For the Ethernet cable, used a shielded twisted pair (STP) cable. Do not use an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable, as it may exceed noise standard limits (For Europe model). n Computer A computer with the following specifications is required to use a server: • OS Windows® XP Service Pack2, Windows Vista • Internet browser Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 or later • LAN port For connections to the Internet, contact an ISP (Internet Service Provider) or a computer shop. NOTE • A contract with an ISP is required to connect to the Internet. No additional contract is needed if you already have a broadband connection to the Internet. • The types of routers that can be used depend on the ISP. Contact an ISP or a computer shop for details. n Others • If you have an Internet provider contract for a line on which network settings are made manually, make the settings at "Network Setup" (vpage 15). • With the POA-3012CI, it is possible to use the DHCP and Auto IP functions to make the network settings automatically. • When using a broadband router (DHCP function), the POA-3012CI sets the IP address, etc., automatically. When using the POA-3012CI connected to a network with no DHCP function, make the settings for the IP address, etc., at "Network Setup" (vpage 15). • The POA-3012CI is not compatible with PPPoE. A PPPoE-compatible router is required if you have a contract for a line of the type with which the PPPoE is set.
