LAN
The computer is equipped with networking hardware that supports
Ethernet LAN (10megabits 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 the LAN cable
If you are using Ethernet LAN (10 megabits per second, 10BASE-T),
you can connect using either a CAT5 or a CAT3 cable.
If you are using 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet, you must connect using a
CAT5 cable.
To connect the LAN cable, follow the steps below.
1. Turn off the power to the computer and to all external devices
connected to the computer.
2. Plug one end of the cable into the LAN jack. Press gently until you hear
the latch click into place.

your LAN administrator before connecting to a hub.
Do not install or remove an optional memory module while the Wake-up on
LAN feature is enabled.
The Wake-up on LAN feature does not work on battery power, you should
always leave the computer connected to the AC adapter if you are 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.
