I see a LAN connection, can this connect wirelessly or do I need a network cable from my router?

You will need an Ethernet cable to connect to your router. This will make you system connected to your wireless network.

You must use a LAN cable out of the box. To add wireless internet you must buy a separate adaptor.

As sold, you can you must use a LAN cable. If you want to wirelessly, you have to buy an additional accessory.

Connect to your router using an ethernet cable or if you want to connect wirelessly you will need to buy additional hardware.

I did a wired ethernet setup first. Then I did the wireless. You need the mac addresses of the wireless devices to set them up. This is done so that outsiders can't get into your wireless setup and "steal" service via your router. I had to enter the mac addresses, optional description and other info manually. Choose to recognize these devices only. You will be able to test that there are connections for each one as you do them (if I remember correctly). You get to the manual setup via the web to your router IP address. Also, you can download the manual (if you don't have one) from Netgear as well as additional information that will provide helpful details. It is easy to do really. Just read up on it first. You can't hurt anything if you try and fail as long as you don't change your original setup to connect to your laptop. So, experimenting with, say, one device at a time will work okay.

I use the Ethernet but I am quite sure that it can be use wireless you may have to just type in the connection number and the name of the link.

It's hard to know how to respond, because you don't say what ports your router has - or what OS you're using. The spec is pretty complete, and yes, there is no ethernet. If this is really vital, I might try connecting this to a specific host machine (I use Firewire) and then remote mounting it on other machines. (This is easy in the mac world, and I'm sure there are Windows solutions.) Hope this helps. At least, it's probably better than, "Huh?"

No it does not have to be wired to your router. It will be connected wirelessly. The process takes less than a minute.

Yes, the YWA-10 will allow you to connect to a wireless LAN. Also if you are close enough to Ethernet just plug it directly into the 1030 directly from the router.

I had the same question, when you connect it as directed you can be LAN (USB) and it will also produce a wifi signal for those devices. It does both or either one as needed. Mine was bought used and works great.

Update: This thread got me wired just now...Wireless is in the works. [ndiswrapper isn't so friendly to this one for some reason - perhaps I nabbed the wrong wireless driver..]http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7409939

Not sure I understand the question. Do you mean physically connect? This plugs into the pc that you want to be wireless. Software is also installed on the pc in question. It then recognizes your internet provider. Hope that's what you were asking.

Hi Stephen,This model comes with Gigabit Ethernet, so you will have to buy/use a Cat 5e or Cat6 Ethernet Cable to get the most out of the connection. It does not come with WiFi so if you wish to connect it via Wireless, the easiest way is to purchase a USB Wireless Adapter that best matches your existing router at home.Hope that helps!

On it's own, it doesn't have wireless connection, or Ethernet connection.But maybe you can connect it through a PC that will server you for this purpose, and that will be connect to the network.

Yes. It's the only way to use it. Plug in your LAN line from the wall jack.

You need to add a wireless card to it for wireless connection. This in inexpensive in itself.. Best buy would have and put in. You can connect via ethernet from a cable from your router however. Why not? I have At and T and it is a router with cables and also wireless... If you are a novice. The cable connects to the back of the computer with something that looks almost like a phone connection (but it isnt). Same connections (holes) should be on your router. Cables are cheap...

No, you have to connect it to a power strip. You also have to connect it to your computer via ethernet cord. You don't have to connect it to the router itself.

I think you need to purchase an additional wireless adapter. I am connected to the network via cable.

You have to use the cable supplied...it isn't wireless. The cable supplied has different connectors on each end.
