When using this unit, we recommend you use a router equipped with the following functions:

This function automatically assigns IP addresses on the LAN.
•Built-in 100BASE-TX switch
When connecting multiple devices, we recommend a switching hub with a speed of 100 Mbps or
greater.

(CAT-5 or greater recommended)
•Use only a shielded STP or ScTP LAN cable which is easily available at electronics stores.
•The normal shielded-type Ethernet cable is recommended. If a flat-type cable or unshielded-type cable
is used, other devices could be aected by noise.
•If you have an Internet provider contract for a line on which network settings are made manually, make
the settings at “Network” (vpage102).
•With this unit, it is possible to use the DHCP and Auto IP functions to make the network settings
automatically.
•When using this unit with the broadband router’s DHCP function enabled, this unit automatically performs
the IP address setting and other settings.
When using this unit connected to a network with no DHCP function, make the settings for the IP
address, etc., at “Network” (vpage102).
•When setting manually, check the settings with the network administrator or internet service provider.
NOTE
•A contract with an internet service provider (ISP) is usually required to connect to the Internet.
No additional contract is needed if you already have a broadband connection to the Internet.
•The types of routers that can be used depend on the ISP. Contact your ISP or a computer shop for details.

the customer’s network environment or connected devices.
