• Depending on how your network is congured, you may be able to attach your
product to your LAN by connecting the LAN port on the back of your product directly
to a network wall outlet using a LAN cable.

If you have a Dynamic Network, you should use an ADSL modem or router that
supports the Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol (DHCP). Modems and routers that
support DHCP automatically provide the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS
values your product needs to access the Internet so you do not have to enter them
manually. Most home networks are Dynamic Networks.
Some networks require a Static IP address. If your network requires a Static IP address,
you must enter the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values manually on
your product Cable Setup Screen when you set up the network connection. To get
the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS values, contact your Internet Service
Provider (ISP).
If you have a Windows computer, you can also get these values through your
computer.
• You can use ADSL modems that support DHCP if your network requires a Static IP
address.
• ADSL modems that support DHCP also let you use Static IP addresses.
