connect the 8 port uplink(wan) port to 1 of the 4 ports into the wireless. use a straight thru cable.
ok so i dont need to use the uplink? and also what do you meen by a stright through cable do you mean like ethernet cable or a rj-45 patch cabel? john
it is an ethernet cable but is wired corresponding pin to pin straight thru whereas a crossover cable is wired differently pin to pin.
