Sheet Chapter 1 Introduction: Congratulations on the purchase of this EZ-800 Switch. [. . . ] Make sure the cable length is less than or equal to no more than 100 meters (328 feet). Attach one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port of the computer's network adapter card and the other end to any available port of the 8-port Network Switch. Locate a suitably switched 120volt AC power outlet to plug in the supplied power pack. Insert the power pack into the power outlet. Connect the cable attached to the power pack adapter to the power inlet on the rear panel of the switch. *Note* If you're trying to expand your home/business network with the EZ800s into a router, simply have an Ethernet cable connected in between of the EZ-800s and the router you have. Any port will work because of the auto-uplink function on the switch. Aftermath: After you have successfully installed the EZ-800s, check the lights in the front and see if they are operating. For each Ethernet cable you insert into the port on the switch and the other end, the link light in the front will light up.

E-Mail: techsupp@gigafast. com Website: www. gigafast. com Thank you for choosing GigaFast Chapter 3 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ): Q: What is the dimension on the EZ-800s? A: L: 155mm x W: 95mm x H: 25mm Q: What is the operating temperature on the EZ-800s? A: Every product we have is 0 to 40 degree Celsius Q: Can I use the EZ-800s to share the internet connection with other computers within my network? A: The answer is yes and no. The EZ-800s allows only one IP to be used at a time. If you want to share one IP with multiple computers then a router is needed. EZ-800s allows you to do file and sharing, LAN (Local Area Network) gaming etc. For example: If you have more than one IP address, then it is possible to use the EZ-800s to share the internet connection. To do this: (For most Microsoft Windows based Operating System) 1. Make sure you set up the dedicated IP address from your ISP under `TCP/IP Internet Protocol' under your Windows Operating System 2. By default the `automatically obtain an IP address' is bubbled in. Bubble `specify an IP addresses' and insert the dedicated IP address. Specify the Mask address and click on `apply' 4. Please ensure that you do a ping test to make sure the switch is communicating with your ISP/computers on the network. (For MAC based Operating System) 1. Under `System Preference' there should be a `Network', click on it 2. Go to `Built in Ethernet' and that is where you set up your static internet protocols Q: What is the voltage and power consumption on the EZ-800s? A: The voltage on the EZ-800s: 9V 1A The power consumption on the EZ-800s: 1. 5w Q: I have plugged in everything that is required on the EZ-800s and have checked the settings, but still can't get a connection through the switch, what do I do? A: Try to do a power-cycle on the EZ-800s and see if that makes any difference. [. . . ] Connect that port with an Ethernet cable and into a port on the EZ-800s and that will expand your network Q: I have an older Ethernet card and upon installation the link light on the EZ-800s flashes every second or so, what is wrong? A: It indicates that your network card is running 100mb Full Duplex. Change the TX rate to 10mb Half Duplex and restart the computer to take effect. Q: Is a cross-over cable needed to connect the EZ-800s to another hub or some type of device? A: A cross-over cable is not needed due to the auto-uplink ability on the EZ-800s Q: Is there a way to make my internet connection faster with the EZ800s? A: Unfortunately a switch/router does not change the speed/bandwidth of your internet connection from your ISP. It depends on the ISP that serves your connection in your area. Q: My EZ-800s gets really hot and often drops my connection A: Put the EZ-800s somewhere that has more air flow and see if that solves the problem. If not, then the switch might be defective. [. . . ]
