Ethernet (10/100Base-T)
Your computer comes with built-in Ethernet networking capability, which you can use
to connect to a network or to a cable or DSL modem.
Connecting to a network gives you access to other computers. You may be able to
store and retrieve information; use network printers, modems, and email; or connect to
the Internet. You can use Ethernet to share files between two computers or set up a
small network. You can also connect cable modems and DSL modems to your Ethernet
port to access the Internet via an Internet service provider (ISP). The Ethernet port on
your iBook G4 automatically detects other Ethernet devices. You don’t need an Ethernet
crossover cable when connecting to other Ethernet devices.
