What Are the Requirements for Ethernet Network Devices?
How Many Ethernet Network Devices Can I Connect?
The Cisco wireless home gateway can support several Ethernet network devices
using external Ethernet hubs that must be purchased separately.
The theoretical maximum number of Ethernet network devices supported is by the
wireless home gateway is 63. However, under normal circumstances, the number of
devices connected should be a much lower number.
Contact your service provider for more information on the maximum number of
Ethernet network devices to connect to your wireless home gateway to maintain
optimal network performance.
What Are the Wiring Requirements for Ethernet Networking?
A number of factors can impact the practical limit of the network. Although the
wireless home gateway is designed to support several Ethernet network devices, it is
important to view the characteristics of the entire network and not just each
individual node.
The theoretical distance between two 10/100BaseT CAT-5 Ethernet hubs is 382 feet
(100 meters). Contact your service provider or consult the documentation for your
Ethernet network devices for more information.
Note: Cisco recommends that you use CAT-5 Ethernet cables.
Do I Need to Configure the TCP/IP Protocol on My Computer?
For you to use Ethernet network devices on your network, you must have the
TCP/IP protocol properly configured on your PC. Refer to How Do I Configure
TCP/IP Protocol? (on page 20), for detailed information on configuring the TCP/IP
protocol.
