Ethernet connection to a wired network without Internet In this example, the network devices are connected to a switch or router, and there is no Internet connection. Devices use AutoIP, which means IP addresses are configured automatically. If you have this configuration, connect your HP all-in-one to the switch or router with an Ethernet cable. For connection instructions, see Connect with an Ethernet cable. Note In order to use the HP Instant Share features on your HP all-in-one, you will need broadband Internet access, such as cable or DSL. For more information about HP Instant Share, see the printed User Guide that came with your HP all-in-one. Ethernet connection to a wireless network Your access point connects a wired device to a wireless network. In this model, your computer is configured for wireless networking using a wireless network adapter, and transfers and receives data through the access point. Your HP all-in-one is configured for wired networking and is connected with an Ethernet cable to the access point. A DSL or cable modem can provide Internet access. For connection instructions, see Connect with an Ethernet cable. Note In this configuration, we recommend that you route the Internet connection directly through the access point using an Ethernet cable. HP all-in-one Network Guide 7
