Sabrent USB-G1000, User Manual

Connecting to a Network 

Now you can connect your network to the device’s LAN port. The LAN port supports Auto-MDIX feature. 
It eliminates the need to use crossover cables.   

Upon your connection, a message pops up in the notification area indicating your connection speed.   

The adapter’s AutoSense feature can automatically detect the network's maximum line speed. To have a 
1000Mbps connection, your network device (e.g., switch, router or DSL modem) must also support 
1000Mbps. 

Configuring Network Settings 

You should configure your Ethernet adapter as required according to your network environment. If you 
are unsure about the settings, consult your network administrator for assistance. The following 
describes how to launch the network settings window for your Ethernet adapter.   

 
Windows XP/2000/Vista 

After the installation, a local area connection icon is automatically created for your Ethernet adapter in 
the 

Network Connections

 folder. You can access 

Network Connections

 folder by selecting
