12.1.2 Connecng the Ethernet cable

To connect the Ethernet cable to the DTR, open the DTR’s enclosure cover, loosen the

front panel screw and open the front panel. The Ethernet connector is behind the

front panel, see Figure 12.6. Plug one end of an appropriate Ethernet cable into the

connector. Plug the other end into your PC/LAN socket/hub/switch/access point.

Warning! While it is possible to connect and disconnect the Ethernet cable when

the DTR is powered on, for your safety we recommend that you turn off the power (by

using the external power switch) before opening the DTR’s front panel.
