Connecting access point to router

Socaddict · 22 Jun 2006 at 18:40

I have a netgear DG814 router, and have now purchased a cisco aeronet 340 wireless access point. To connect the two of them, do i use a normal Cat5 cable, or a crossover cable?

cheers for your help.

Normal straight through if i'm not mistaken because they aren't like devices.

Edit: However if they're both wireless then a crossover might be used!

cheers, just thought I'd make sure. Of course, this is irrelevant at the moment, as my pci wireless card won't be arriving until the weekend at the earliest.

Don't quote me on it!!
I think it's straight through!
