Connecting to a LAN
If your model has a LAN port, you can connect to local area networks (LANs). LANs
give you access to network resources, such as printers and file servers on your corporate
network, and possibly to the Internet.
To connect to a LAN
1.
Check that the existing LAN supports Ethernet 10Base-T (10 Mbps) or 100Base-TX
(100 Mbps) connections.
2.
Plug the LAN cable (not supplied) into the built-in LAN port. The cable must have an
RJ-45 connector.
3.
Windows automatically detects and sets up a LAN connection. To edit settings, open
Network and Dial-up Connections in Control Panel.
See Windows Help for information about setting up and using LAN connections—click
Start, Help and Support (or Help). Contact your network administrator for network
information.
Two lights next to the LAN port indicate the status of the connection:
•
The yellow light indicates network activity.
•
The green light indicates a 100 MB per second link.
