Connecting to a DSL or Cable Modem

Many DSL or cable modems require connection to a computer through a network interface card (NIC). To determine if your cable or DSL modem can be connected through a network interface card, you can either consult your modem’s documentation or simply look at the ports on the back of the modem. If your modem has a port that looks just like the one pictured below (similar to a standard phone jack, but a little larger), then the Belkin USB 10/100 Ethernet Adapter is an easy way to connect to these modems and take advantage of high-speed

Internet access.

10/100Base-T Ethernet Connector

Connecting the hardware

To connect the modem to your Network Card, you will need an Ethernet

"patch cable," or "CAT5 cable". Most cable and DSL modems will require connection using a "crossover patch cable," however, some modems offer a second network connector labeled "Computer," which can be connected to the Network Card using a standard patch cable. To determine which cable to use, it is recommended that you consult your modem’s installation guide or user manual.

P73682-F5D5050-man-new.qxd 7/19/01 12:40 PM Page 8

Connecting to a DSL or Cable Modem

Belkin offers a full line of these cables, available from any major retailer or distributor of computer-related products. To achieve the best performance from your Cable or DSL modem, we recommend the following part numbers:

Crossover Ethernet Patch Cable:

A3X126-xx-YLW-M, where "xx" denotes the cable length in feet

FastCAT5e Ethernet Patch Cable:

A3L850-xx-yyy-S, where "xx" denotes the length, and "yyy" denotes the color of the cable

To connect your DSL or cable modem to the computer, make sure you have first installed both the Belkin USB 10/100 Ethernet Adapter and its drivers as detailed earlier in this manual. Once the hardware and drivers are installed, plug one end of the Ethernet Patch Cable to the connector on the USB/Ethernet Adapter, and plug the other end into the connector on the modem.

Configuring your computer

Once the computer is connected to your DSL or cable modem, you will need to configure your computer’s network settings to access the

Internet using the modem.

Note: This section includes general instructions for configuring your computer to use a DSL or cable modem, which work for most

DSL and cable service providers; however, some providers have special requirements or non-standard configurations. If your DSL or cable provider has provided instructions which differ from this, please follow those instructions. If the procedure below does not work for you, please contact your DSL or cable provider for instructions on configuring your computer to use the modem.

Connecting to a DSL or Cable Modem

When you use a DSL or cable modem, you are connecting to your service provider’s network. These networks can be set up by the provider to communicate with your computer using either "dynamic" or "static" addressing. To configure your computer, you will need to know which of these methods is to be used. If your provider intends for you to use "static" addressing, they should have provided you with several Internet addresses (labeled "IP address", "Net Mask", and one or more "DNS addresses"), each of which looks similar to the following: 192.168.0.1. If you did not receive numbers such as this in the paperwork or documentation accompanying your modem, your provider likely intends to use "dynamic" addressing.

Using static addressing

To access the Internet using static addressing, configure the network settings for your computer as follows:

1. Open the Control Panel: click on the Start button, click on Settings, and choose Control Panel from the menu that pops out.

2. Double-click on the

Network icon in control panel to open the

Network window.

Creating a Simple Network

If you have two or more computers in your home or office, connecting them via a network lets you cooperate, collaborate, and make the most of your hardware. You can share files, printers, and even access the Internet from all of your computers through your network.

While networking was once a complicated matter, Windows 95, 98 and later versions, along with hardware like Belkin networking products have made networking very easy to do for everyone. The following section of this manual will help you set up a simple network in your home or office. If you are connecting to a larger, existing network, it is recommended that you consult your network administrator (the person who originally set up the network) for instruction on how to connect additional computers to the network.

There is a wide variety of network hardware available, ranging from simple and inexpensive to very complex; however, for most home and small offfice network needs, the hardware required is basic.

Connecting three or more computers requires each computer to have a Network Adapter such as the Belkin 10/100 Ethernet Adapter, the

Belkin Desktop Network Card for desktop computers, or the Belkin

Notebook Network Card for notebook or laptop computers. You should also have a 10/100Base-T hub or switch, with enough ports for the number of computers you intend to connect immediately or in the near future. Hubs and switches are physically and effectively very similar; however, Belkin always recommends the use of switches when possible (such as the Belkin 5-port Network Switch part number

F5D5130-5, or the Belkin 8-port Network Switch part number

F5D5130-8). Switches offer much higher performance, efficiency, and speed than standard hubs.

After installing the network cards, connect each computer to the switch using an Ethernet CAT5 patch cable, such as Belkin part number:

A3L850-xx-yyy-S, where "xx" denotes the length, and "yyy" denotes the color of the cable

Sharing an Internet Connection

Sharing a single Internet connection is one of the most useful advantages of networking your computers. Rather than having a modem, phone line, and perhaps even a separate Internet account for each of your computers, you can configure your network to allow all of your computers to share a single dial-up, DSL, or cable Internet connection. There are two ways to share an Internet connection, either by running Internet sharing software on a computer on the network which has a working Internet connection, or by using a special piece of hardware called a "Gateway".

Software Internet sharing is appropriate for dial-up (normal phone line) Internet connections, as well as for DSL and cable connections which use either a modem which connects to the computer’s USB port, or a modem which goes inside of the computer. Software

Internet sharing can be done through the Windows operating system if the computer which has the Internet connection is running

Windows 98 SE, Me, NT 4.0., or 2000. If the computer with the

Internet connection to be shared is running another operating system, third-party "proxy server" software is required.

Hardware Internet sharing, which requires a Gateway (such as the

Belkin Broadband Internet Gateway, part number F5D5230-X), is the best way to share DSL or cable Internet connections which use a modem connected to the Network Card in a computer.

Once you have your network running properly, which can easily be verified by using Network Neighborhood to view the other computers on your network, and have a working Internet connection through a standard dial-up, DSL, or cable modem, setting up Internet connection sharing is simple.

Sharing an Internet Connection

Hardware Internet sharing

Sharing of a single broadband Internet connection using a Gateway is the most efficient and highest-performance way of sharing a DSL or cable Internet connection. In addition, most Gateways provide a basic level of security for your network, and include a built-in switch to add more ports to your network. In fact, full-featured

Gateways such as the Belkin Broadband Internet Gateway (part number F5D5230-X) can be used either in place of, or in addition to, any existing network hub or switch.
