Planning Your Network
Before moving ahead to setup your network, it is a good idea to draw out a
network diagram to help identify your network devices and plan out how to
connect these devices.
Each port in the router can be used for different connections. For example:
Ethernet 1 – Set-top Box
Ethernet 2 – Game Console
Ethernet 3 – Dad’s Computer
Ethernet 4 – Mom’s Computer
Ethernet WAN – ONT
To create a network diagram:
For wireless devices, identify the wireless devices you want to include in
the network
For wired devices, identify which router port you want to use for each
device.
