Frequently Asked Questions

Which ethernet cable do I use to connect the Bluetooth Access Point to the network?

FAQs
There are two RJ45 ports at the back of the Bluetooth Access Point, LAN and Uplink (port with a X sign). If you are connecting via a router, please use a standard RJ45 ethernet cable and plug into the LAN port. If you are connecting directly from the ethernet jack on the wall, then you should use a standard RJ45 ethernet cable and plug into the Uplink port (or a crossover RJ45 ethernet cable and plug into the LAN port).

Can I use a USB to Ethernet adapter to connect the USB modem to my network?

thinkbroadband :: Broadband FAQ
With the current adapters you cant, the USB modem is the DSL equivalent of a WinModem and requires some processor power to perform the modem functions and convert the ATM data into TCP/IP for presentation to the PC. There is a Draytek device however which can effetively act as a router and presents ethernet to the user side. See details here.

Can you connect to the Bluetooth Access Point using a Bluetooth enabled mobile phone?

FAQs
The access point supports PAN profile, which is not one of the profiles supported by the mobile phone. In the other words, you can't use the mobile phone on the access point. Please make sure that your Bluetooth software supports the PAN profile. Please ask your USB/PCMCIA/CF Bluetooth dongle/card vendor for details.

Can I use any wireless receiver to connect to the campus network?

VPN-FAQ
Probably. Any wireless receiver supporting the industry standard 802.11b or 802.11g protocols should work. However, in rare cases, we have found wireless receivers which had compatibility issues with the computer upon which it was installed.

How many computers can I connect to one access point?

FAQ
Theoretically, it's 254. But it depends on the environment. Address numbers 0-255 are assigned for private use, but 0 and 255 are assigned as special numbers, thus, 254 addresses are liquid addresses private users can use. Practically speaking, for communication efficiency, 20-30 PCs can be connected to one access point. On the safe side, 10 PCs per access point is a good number.

Can I use a standard Ethernet cable (10BASE-T)?

Knürr AG - Service&Capabilities - FAQ - KVM
No. Standard Ethernet cables do not have the necessary bandwidth properties for transmitting high-grade video over long distances. Because the actual usage purpose of UTP cables is to transfer digital data, the cable specifications are optimised for this use.

Q: How long the Cat 5 Ethernet cable I can connect to the switch?

Frequently Asked Questions for Gigafast Brand Switches
BaseTX devices to the switch always limit the cable distance to 100 meters (328 ft) as defined by IEEE specification.

What is Ethernet cable?

HOW TO USE RESNET: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Ethernet, also called CAT-5, RJ-45, or 10-Base T, is the type of cable used to connect computers to the Georgetown network. Ethernet looks like a phone cable but with larger connectors at each end and a fatter cable. You cannot use telephone cable to connect to the Georgetown network.

What kind of cable do I need to connect my computer to the network, and where can I get one?

Frequently Asked Questions - Ferris State University
You need an RJ45 cable with connectors on both ends. You may purchase a 14' cable from SATS in the West Building or at one of the local computer stores. Students who reside off campus can obtain internet connectivity via a modem through an outside Internet Service Provider (ISP) or through a service provided by the University called Merit or MichNet. The charge for MichNet service is $40 a semester or $100 for a year.

Where can I buy an Ethernet card and RJ45 network cable?

ITS - HSCResNet - ResNet HSC FAQs
Most computer come with an integrated Ethernet card. If your computer does not have one prevoiusly installed, you can buy an Ethernet card and RJ45 network cable from the University Bookstore or from most other computer retail stores.

Can I use Microsoft's Bluetooth keyboard and mouse adapter to connect other Bluetooth devices?

English Windows FAQs 2003
No, the type of adapter on Microsoft's Bluetooth keyboard and mouse is suitable only for mouse and keyboard connectivity. Additional information about this type of Bluetooth adapter (i.e., TDK Systems' USB Bluetooth Adaptor) is available at http://www.tdksystems.com (follow the links to "products," Bluetooth).

Can I use EXTRACT on a CD-ROM I access across a network?

EXTRACT -- Frequently Asked Questions
If you are accessing a CD-ROM on a network using Novell Netware, you need to add the following line to your NET.CFG file: Failure to do so will keep EXTRACT from reading files on the networked CD-ROM, yeilding error messages like

What do you recommend we have installed for use in our Ethernet network?

Frequently Asked Questions
At this time we would recommend the certified Cat 5e or the special Cat 5 ENH offered by the manufacturer we use. We feel these cables offer the security of conforming to a ratified standard, while also leaving the needed room for growth towards Gigabit Ethernet applications. Having Cat 5/5e installed for both your data and phones offers you the flexibility to use your phone jacks as network jacks in the future (assuming you have the cables terminated onto a patch panel).

How can I connect more than two Ethernet products?

PC/104 Embedded Systems FAQ, EBX, Linux, Real Time, data acq...
PC/104 systems with multiple processors or peripherals that have Ethernet interfaces can use a PC/104 Ethernet switch or hub board to be networked together. Fast Ethernet and 10BaseT switches or hubs are available with auto-MDI-MDIX network installation and up to five auto-configurable 10/100 transceiver ports. Ethernet connections are made through either onboard RJ-45 jacks or via right-angle Molex connectors that can be used to mount RJ-45 jacks in a faceplate, endcap or enclosure.

D.19 Okay, so can I connect my PC to an Ethernet network and run AUN?

The comp.sys.acorn.networking FAQ
Again no (though see earlier sections for other ways to share files between PCs and Acorn machines). Work is ongoing to add support for AUN to Linux, both over Ethernet and (when running on suitable hardware) native Econet, but there is no usable implementation yet. All Acorn computers since the Master have had their Econet station number stored in the first byte of CMOS RAM. If the battery goes flat, or you reset the CMOS RAM, it will get cleared to zero - this isn't a legal station number.

What is the PIN code of the Bluetooth Access Point?

FAQs
But since the PIN request feature is disabled in the Billionton Bluetooth software, you won't be asked to type it. However, if you try to connect to the Bluetooth Access Point with a non-Billionton BT software and if the "Secure Connection" feature is enabled in them, then you might be prompted with the PIN. This BT AP is set without a PIN code by default and the authentication feature for Network Access is turned off in our BT software (that is installed on the computer system).

Do I need to bring an Ethernet network cable on an exam day?

ExamSoft FAQs - Exam Policies - Law Registrar - School of La...
Yes, unless you have wireless capability. Make sure to register your wireless address with GGU well in advance of your exam. You can register your laptop's MAC address online via GGU4YOU under the "Profile" tab.

Can I use the i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter with a dsl or cable modem?

i.LON 10 Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, but you would have to implement the equivalent of Echelon's xDriver software. The best choice for using the i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter without LNS is to use Echelon's OpenLDV driver. It is available free of charge at www.echelon.com/openLDV. Yes, though the algorithm differs from the i.LON 600 LonWorks/IP Server. This question is usually asked when trying to figure out how much bandwidth an i.LON 10 Ethernet Adapter might consume on an Ethernet segment. For example, if the i.
