If this is the case, connect the external hub to the Prestige using a straight-through cable from the uplink port of the external hub to one of the 4 Ethernet ports of the Prestige. Please make sure that the uplink port on the external hub is in the uplink mode (usually with a toggle switch). If your external hub does not have an uplink port, then you must use a crossover cable to daisy-chain it to the Prestige. 2.5 Power On Your Prestige At this point, you should have connected the computer, the telephone line, the Ethernet cable, and the power supply to your Prestige. You can now power on your Prestige by plugging the AC adapter to the appropriate power outlet. Step 1.
