LAN
The computer has built-in support for Ethernet LAN (10 megabits per
second, 10BASE-T), and Fast Ethernet LAN (100 megabits per second,
100BASE-TX). This section describes how to connect/disconnect to a LAN.
Connecting LAN cable
If you are using Fast Ethernet LAN (100 Mbit/s, 100BASE-TX), be sure to
connect with a category 5 cable, CAT5, or higher.
If you are using Ethernet LAN (10 Mbit/s, 10BASE-T), connect with a
category 3 cable, CAT3, or higher.
To connect the LAN cable, follow the steps below.
1. Plug one end of the cable into the LAN jack. Press gently until you
hear the latch click into place.

2. Plug the other end of the cable into a LAN hub connector. Check with
your LAN administrator before connecting to a hub.
Disconnecting LAN cable
To disconnect the LAN cable, follow the steps below.
1. Pinch the lever on the connector in the computer’s LAN jack and pull
out the connector.
Do not install or remove an optional memory module while Wake-up on
LAN is enabled.
The Wake-up on LAN function consumes power even when the system is
off. Leave the AC adaptor connected while using this feature.
The computer must be configured properly before connecting to a LAN.
Logging onto a LAN using the computer’s default settings could cause a
malfunction in LAN operation. Check with your LAN administrator
regarding set-up procedures.
