Before you Begin
Before you install the SOHO 6 Wireless, you must have:
A computer with a 10/100BaseT Ethernet card installed and a Web browser, such as Internet
Explorer.
A functional Internet connection–this connection must be a cable or DSL modem with a
10/100BaseT port, an ISDN router, or a direct LAN connection. If the Internet connection is not
functional, call your ISP.
Two straight-through Ethernet network cables with RJ45 connectors. Crossover cables, which are
often red or orange in color, are not satisfactory. The SOHO 6 Wireless package includes one cable–
a second cable may have been supplied with your modem, if not, you will need to purchase a second
cable. Make sure that the cables are of sufficient length to connect the modem or router to the
SOHO 6 Wireless and the SOHO 6 Wireless to your computer.
The method of network address assignment used by your ISP. The possible methods are static
addressing, DHCP, or PPPoE–call your ISP to determine this, if necessary.
