LAN question

Mr Radio

Currently my 6700, PG and TG are connected to an IP switch which in turn is connected to computer's CAT socket. Computer is connected to internet router via WiFi. This configuration works fine but I would like to extend it to my internet router. This was suggested when I posted a question to Help Desk in relation to another matter..

Is there a manual which describes how to set up LAN correctly? I have no experience in this area at all.

I think you mean LAN Connection. :)

If you like, you can turn on Internet Connection Sharing on your PC. It turns your PC into a network switch. It isn't the best way to do it, but it does work.

You can run an Ethernet cable from your router LAN port to the switch then plug all the Flex and Genius equipment into the switch. Plug your PC into the switch and disable the PC WiFi, then reboot everything.

This is the best and most reliable configuration. It also allows for remote operation (requires set up) if you decide to go that route in the future.
