Installing the USB 10/100 Ethernet Adapter
1. Turn off the power to the desktop/laptop.
2. Insert the USB 10/100 Ethernet Adapter’s USB Connector into
the PC’s USB port.
3. Insert a CAT5 cable into the Ethernet jack.
Basic PC-to-Ethernet Port Connections

environment. Such a port might be an Ethernet hub, switch, network
wall socket, peripheral device, etc.
4. Use the following connection diagrams for your specific application:
PC-to-PC Direct Connections
NOTE: A standard Belkin Network Cable cannot be used to directly
connect two computers. A specially wired cable called a crossovc
cable is needed to allow you to connect 2 computers without the use
of a network hub or switch. Belkin crossover cables are yellow

Connecting to a DSL or Cab e Modem
7
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.
