Connecting an Ethernet cable to an Access Point (AP) is a simple process that allows devices to connect to your network and access the internet. Follow this step-by-step guide:
- Locate the Ethernet Ports: Find the Ethernet ports on your Access Point, which is labeled as LAN.
- Identify the Device to Connect: Choose the device you want to connect to the router, such as a computer, gaming console, or another device with an Ethernet port.
- Connect the Ethernet Cable to the Device: Insert one end of the Ethernet cable into the device’s Ethernet port.
- Connect the Other End to the Access Point: Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into one of the available Ethernet ports on the Access Point, located on the bottom.
- Ensure a Secure Connection: Gently tug on the cable to confirm it is securely plugged in and the connection is stable.
- Connect Additional Devices: If you wish to connect more devices, repeat the process for each one.
- Power On the Devices: Once all devices are connected, power them on.
- Verify Connectivity: Your devices should now be connected to the network with internet access. You can verify the connection by checking the network settings or opening a web browser to ensure internet connectivity.
