Как подключить интернет к ноутбуку через кабель и настроить подключение?

При подключении провайдерами квартиры или офиса к сети вначале всегда тестируют скорость через провод. Только потом, если заказчик того пожелает, ведётся настройка беспроводного интернета.

Преимущества провода

Вот несколько преимуществ прямого подключения:

• Кабельное соединение предоставляет в два-три раза большую скорость навигации в сети, чем беспроводное. Например, восьмижильная витая пара или сетевой кабель даёт заявленные провайдером 100 Мб/с. Оптический провод может разогнать скорость вплоть до 1 Гб/с;
• Гораздо меньший пинг. Так называют задержку между моментом нажатия клавиши и последующим откликом на него со стороны браузера. Малая величина пинга очень ценится любителями поиграть в сетевые игры. Бывает, что игра сильно тормозит, если время задержки велико;
• Wi-Fi значительно теряет в мощности сигнала, проходя сквозь преграды, скажем, стены дома. Более того, беспроводной сигнал очень восприимчив к эфирным радиопомехам, препятствующим его работе. Это выражается в потерях скорости или потере соединения с сетью. С проводным подключением ничего подобного не происходит;
• Наконец, гораздо проще и удобнее подвести к ноутбуку проложенный провайдером провод, нежели настроить беспроводной Wi-Fi.

Особенности настройки проводного интернета могут зависеть от типа соединения. В некоторой степени на них может повлиять и операционная система. Скажем, только для интерфейса Windows XP имеются некоторые отличия. Для более поздних версий продукции Microsoft такая настройка проводится одинаково.

Вопрос о том, как подключить и настроить интернет на ноутбуке через кабель имеет несколько особенностей, о которых будет рассказываться далее.

Как подключить провод к ноутбуку?

Подключение провода не требует каких-то специальных навыков. Обычно, в комплект с маршрутизатором входит интернет-кабель, имеющий с обеих сторон разъёмы типа RJ-45. Необходимо соединить ноутбук и роутер этим проводом. Один конец нужно поместить в гнездо LAN маршрутизатора. Таких слотов может быть несколько и можно выбрать любой. Обратите внимание: витая пара должна быть подключена к роутеру через порт «Internet» или «WAN». Второй конец кабеля соединяется с сетевой картой ноутбука:

Если нужно провести соединение напрямую без маршрутизатора, то надо взять витую пару, предоставленную и подключенную провайдером. Её мы вставляем в сетевую карту ноутбука.

После подключения обоих концов провода на роутере начнёт мигать соответствующий светодиод, а в правом нижнем углу рабочего экрана, на иконке сетевых подключений исчезнет красный крестик. Подключение сделано, остаётся настроить соединение по проводу.

Настраиваем сетевую карту: статическое подключение

Настройки, предоставленные провайдером могут быть фиксированными. В таком случае нужно провести статическое подключение сетевой карты ноутбука. Если IP-адрес и DNS сервера определяются автоматически, у них нет заданных значений – проводится динамическое подключение.

При статическом методе соединения параметр, приписанный для IP никогда не будет меняться. Этот адрес прописывают в договоре на обслуживание. Что касается внешнего IP – он тоже будет постоянным.

Для статического подключения надо сделать следующее:

• Правой кнопкой мышки кликаем «Сеть» и выбираем «Центр управления сетями и общим доступом»;
• Появится окно, в котором в левой части нужно нажать на строчку «Изменить параметры адаптера»:

• В окошке со списком доступных для ноутбука адаптеров надо кликнуть правой кнопкой мышки значок «Ethernet». Выбираем «Свойства»:

• Далее выбираем пункт «IP версии 4 (TCP/IPv4)» и нажимаем кнопку «Свойства»:

• В открывшемся окне представлены все свойства IP. Сюда нужно внести изменения. Конкретно в пункты «Использовать следующий IP адрес» и «Использовать следующий адрес DNS». Вводить надо именно значения настроек, предоставленные провайдером;
• После заполнения нажимаем ОК:

Динамическое подключение сетевой карты

В случае когда точные значения IP и DNS не заданы провайдером, надо настраивать динамическое соединение. Все начальные действия надо повторить, как в предыдущем разделе. Только когда раскроется окошко «Свойства IP версии 4 (TCP/IPv4)», нужно напротив строчек «Подключить IP-адрес автоматически» и «Подключить DNS адрес сервера автоматически» установить точки. На этом настройка окончена.

Подключение Интернета через авторизацию

Теперь поговорим о типе подключения. В России и странах СНГ большое распространение получил тип PPPOE. Им пользуется большое число провайдеров Интернет-услуг. Этот способ передачи легко настроить. Он предоставляет высокую степень защиты данных.

Сразу заметим, что при таком соединении провайдер предоставляет заказчику не данные IP-адреса, а вводные для авторизации. То есть логин и пароль. Их просто нужно ввести. Для этого снова жмём «Сеть» правой кнопкой мыши, выбираем «Центр управления…». Появляется окошко, где надо кликнуть по строчке «Создание и настройка нового подключения или сети»:

Потом нужно задать вариант подключения. Для этого нажимаем «Подключение к интернету» и «Высокоскоростное (с PPPOE)». В открывшемся после этого окне аутентификации пользователя вбиваем данные логина и пароля:

 

Предприняв изложенные выше действия, можно нажать кнопку «Подключить» и пользоваться всеми преимуществами и достоинствами, которые даёт подключение ноутбука к Интернету через кабель. Только убедитесь, что все данные введены правильно.

90000 Internet Connections — Wireless, Broadband, DSL, Cable 90001 90002 90003 Internet connection options vary by 90004 90003 Internet Service Provider 90004 90003 and by region. Customers should consider some of the following factors before selecting an Internet package: speed or bandwidth, cost, availability, reliability and convenience. In order to determine what Internet plan is right for you, we recommend you review the different types of Internet connections available on the market today.90004 90009 90010 Understanding The Differences Between Internet Connections 90011 90002 When determining which type of Internet connection is right for you or your family, it’s important to understand the distinction between each connection. In today’s age, there are numerous ways to connect laptops, desktops, mobile phones, gaming consoles, e-readers and tablets to the Internet. Some of the most widely used Internet connections are described below. 90009 90014 Wireless 90015 90002 Radio frequency bands are used in place of telephone or cable networks.One of the greatest advantages of wireless Internet connections is the «always-on» connection that can be accessed from any location that falls within network coverage. Wireless connections are made possible through the use of a modem, which picks up Internet signals and sends them to other devices. 90009 90014 Mobile 90015 90002 Many cell phone and smartphone providers offer voice plans with Internet access. Mobile Internet connections provide good speeds and allow you to access the Internet.90009 90014 Hotspots 90015 90002 Hotspots are sites that offer Internet access over a wireless local area network (WLAN) by way of a router that then connects to an Internet service provider. Hotspots utilize Wi-Fi technology, which allows electronic devices to connect to the Internet or exchange data wirelessly through radio waves. Hotspots can be phone-based or free-standing, commercial or free to the public. 90009 90014 Dial-Up 90015 90002 Dial-up connections require users to link their phone line to a computer in order to access the Internet.This particular type of connection-also referred to as analog-does not permit users to make or receive phone calls through their home phone service while using the Internet. 90009 90014 Broadband 90015 90002 This high-speed Internet connection is provided through either cable or telephone companies. One of the fastest options available, broadband Internet uses multiple data channels to send large quantities of information. The term broadband is shorthand for broad bandwidth. Broadband Internet connections such as DSL and cable are considered high-bandwidth connections.Although many DSL connections can be considered broadband, not all broadband connections are DSL. 90009 90014 DSL 90015 90002 DSL, which stands for Digital Subscriber Line, uses existing 2-wire copper telephone line connected to one’s home so service is delivered at the same time as landline telephone service. Customers can still place calls while surfing the Internet. 90009 90014 Cable 90015 90002 Cable Internet connection is a form of broadband access. Through use of a cable modem, users can access the Internet over cable TV lines.Cable modems can provide extremely fast access to the Internet. 90009 90014 Satellite 90015 90002 In certain areas where broadband connection is not yet offered, a satellite Internet option may be available. Similar to wireless access, satellite connection utilizes a modem. 90009 90014 ISDN 90015 90002 ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) allows users to send data, voice and video content over digital telephone lines or standard telephone wires. The installation of an ISDN adapter is required at both ends of the transmission-on the part of the user as well as the Internet access provider.90009 90002 There are quite a few other Internet connection options available, including T-1 lines, T-3 lines, OC (Optical Carrier) and other DSL technologies. 90009 90002 90003 As you decide what Internet connection is the best fit for your needs, you may wish to narrow down your selection based on your preferred download and upload speeds, or based on deals and pricing options. Reliably fast speeds and comprehensive coverage make it easier than ever to stream your favorite TV shows and movies, share photos, chat with friends and play games online.90004 90009 .90000 DSL vs. Cable — Internet Connection Comparison Guide 90001 90002 90003 What’s the difference between DSL and cable? Learn about how DSL stacks up against cable. Get a comparison of two leading Internet service options and see how it can help your family stay connected. 90004 90005 90006 What is DSL? 90007 90002 TDSL, also known as Digital Subscriber Line, is high-speed Internet access that uses existing copper telephone lines from homes and businesses to transmit data. This type of high-speed Internet requires a DSL modem, unless your computer already has an internal modem (frequently called a voiceband modem).As a broadband option, DSL is always on, unlike a traditional dial-up connection. When it comes to speeds, DSL-based connection services can range from several hundred kilobits per second (Kbps) to millions of bits per second (Mbps). However, performance decreases with the length of the cable connecting the DSL subscriber to the closest telephone provider location. This affects availability and the overall speed of service between DSL vs. cable. 90005 90002 One type of DSL transmission is Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL).This is primarily a residential option for families who surf the Internet and may receive a lot of data without sending out very much. This type of transmission provides faster download speeds over the same line as a subscriber’s voice service. 90005 90002 Another DSL-based broadband option is Symmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL). This type of connection is more of a business service for subscribers who need video conferencing and significant bandwidth for both upstream and downstream data.Other faster forms of DSL for businesses include High-bit-rate digital subscriber line (HDSL) and Very-High-bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line (VDSL). 90005 90006 What is cable Internet? 90007 90002 Cable Internet is high-speed broadband access that makes use of a cable modem and a coaxial cable, similar to the wiring that feeds into your television set. You can still watch your favorite television shows while you’re surfing the Web with cable Internet. When it comes to cable Internet speeds, performance is dependent on a user’s cable modem, cable network and traffic load.As for the speed of service between cable vs. DSL, they can yield similar results when put head-to-head. 90005 90002 Now that you’re starting to compare the benefits of cable, you may see that there is not necessarily a right or a wrong choice. You may want to consider the setup of your home network and all the features you’re hoping to get out of it. When comparing cable vs. DSL, there is no need to worry about your distance from the service provider’s central location. 90005 90006 Which is faster, DSL or cable? 90007 90002 When it comes to cable vs.DSL connection, speeds can fluctuate based on the time of day and a subscriber’s overall usage. In a speed test study, researchers found a significant difference between advertised speeds and sustainable speeds. DSL-based services had download speeds that were 85 percent of advertised speeds, while cable-based services delivered 99 percent of advertised speeds. Indeed, DSL and cable speeds might be comparable but cable inches out ahead with faster speeds. Both are high-speed options that can help keep your family connected so they can do more of what they love online.90005 90006 Options to consider when deciding DSL vs. cable Internet 90007 90002 Now that you know the basics behind broadband technology and how DSL vs. cable compare with one another, there are other factors to consider before making a final decision. Do not get overwhelmed by the similarities between the two. It’s recommended that you consider your environment and whether you’re in a more urban or rural setting. Find out more about how broadband Internet access is packaged with other services (such as home telephone, home entertainment and home security).What is the availability of both DSL and cable service in your area? How do the prices differ? In the case of cable Internet vs. DSL, the DSL-based broadband might not be readily accessible from your location. Carefully consider the options before selecting the service that’s right for you. 90005 90002 90003 When it comes to making a broadband decision between DSL vs. cable Internet, it’s best to first evaluate how you’ll be using this connection. That way, you can determine what download and upload speeds are the best fit for the digital needs of your household.Once you have a found a great deal or a bundle offer, you can get more value over time and will not be worried about the differences between DSL and cable anymore. 90004 90005 .90000 High Speed ​​Fiber Internet Near You 90001 90002 How does fiber internet compare to cable and DSL? 90003 90004 If you live in an area with fiber internet, you probably also have cable and DSL internet options. The type of internet you choose for your home can make a difference in available speeds and overall quality of service. 90005 90006 Fiber internet vs. cable internet 90007 90004 90009 Speeds 90010: Fiber internet offers starting speeds similar to cable internet, with download speeds in the 50 to 100 Mbps range.However, fiber’s fastest speeds are higher than most cable connections, with speeds up 940 Mbps or higher. You’re also likely to get faster upload speeds and more consistent speeds. 90005 90004 90009 Pricing 90010: Starting prices for fiber internet plans are comparable to cable internet and may even be cheaper, depending on the provider and plan. 90005 90004 90009 Availability: 90010 This is where fiber-optic and cable internet differ the most. Fiber internet is available to a third of the U.S. population, while cable is available to more than 88%. Fiber internet is typically available in metro areas, whereas cable is likely available in metro areas and surrounding suburban communities. 90005 90006 Fiber internet vs. DSL internet 90007 90004 90009 Speeds 90010: Fiber internet can deliver download and upload speeds much higher than DSL internet. The speeds you get with fiber internet can support streaming in HD or 4K, gaming online and more on multiple devices. DSL internet speeds are typically better suited for lighter internet activities, such as streaming in SD, browsing the internet and sending emails.90005 90004 90009 Pricing 90010: Plans are likely to be cheaper with DSL service. DSL starting prices average about $ 20 to $ 40 per month, whereas fiber internet monthly price usually starts at $ 40 / mo. or higher. 90005 90004 90009 Availability 90010: DSL is the second most available internet type, covering 95% of the U.S., while fiber internet covers about a third of the country. 90005.90000 How To Get Internet Without Cable Or Phone 90001 90002 At Allconnect, we work to present quality information with editorial integrity.

As of 04/15/20. 90003 90004 How to enjoy cable internet without cable TV 90005 90002 When people say the word «cable,» they often think it’s referring to their TV service. But cable companies offer much more than cable TV. 90003 90099 90100 Shop cable internet and phone 90101 90102 90002 Cable companies can also deliver digital phone service and high-speed internet to your home.Cable internet providers use the same coaxial cable that connects to your television to bring you internet. For internet that performs close to advertised speeds, cable internet is a good option. 90003 90002 If cable lines run through your neighborhood, you can likely get connected to the internet in no time at all. You do not have to subscribe to a cable TV plan to enjoy an internet connection. 90003 90099 Take advantage of included Wi-Fi hotspots 90102 90002 As an added bonus, if you subscribe to cable internet at home, your provider probably gives you free access to all of their Wi-Fi hotspots around town.90003 90002 In 2012 Spectrum, Optimum, Cox and Xfinity all announced that their broadband customers could access each other’s metro Wi-Fi hotspots for free. The cable internet companies call this shared network of more than 500,000 hotspots «CableWi-Fi» as an extension of the Wi-Fi services they offer. 90003 90002 To find Wi-Fi hotspots in your area, head to CableWi-Fi.com and pick your provider for a map of nearby hotspots. Or, download your provider’s mobile app to find available hotspots. 90003 90002 To access the internet via the hotspots, connect to the network and sign in with the credentials your cable provider has given you.90003 90004 How to get free Wi-Fi without internet 90005 90002 Can you get free Wi-Fi without having internet at home? Yes, you can! You have two options for free Wi-Fi: 90003 90028 90029 Use public Wi-Fi hotspots 90030 90029 Tether your smartphone for Wi-Fi 90030 90041 90002 However, you may have to get out of the house more or pay for cellphone data. Find out more about your two options for getting free Wi-Fi without internet below. 90003 90099 Find public Wi-Fi hotspots 90102 90002 Nations around the world provide public Wi-Fi as a service to the general population.As the economies of U.S. cities like Amherst, MA, and Kansas City, MO, continue to boom thanks to free, outdoor Wi-Fi networks, more cities will begin to follow suit. 90003 90002 In the meantime, you and your family can find internet connections without having an internet provider by using free, public Wi-Fi hotspots at nearby coffee shops, public libraries, universities, restaurants, bookstores, gas stations, hotels and more. 90003 90099 Use your smartphone as a wireless modem 90102 90002 If you do not get enough use out of a personal hotspot or USB modem, then the likelihood of you purchasing one is slim.The good news is there’s another way to make Wi-Fi happen with a device that’s likely already in your pocket — your smartphone. 90003 90002 «Tethering» lets you turn your 3G, 4G or 5G cellphone signal into an internet connection. Certain apps for both Apple and Android operating systems can transform your smartphone into a portable modem, giving your laptop free Wi-Fi to use without needing an internet provider. 90003 90002 This tethering method works well if you want to turn your cellphone into a Wi-Fi generating machine for your laptop, or give new life to that old cellphone you still have lying around.90003 90002 Be aware that using your smartphone as your source of internet will quickly drain the phone’s battery, even with light surfing. It could also eat up your phone service data and quickly run you over your data limit. 90003 90004 Wi-Fi alternatives to cable internet 90005 90002 When you want Wi-Fi, but not cable, you still have choices. Check out home Wi-Fi options that get you high-speed internet without cable service. Satellite, fixed wireless and fiber-optic internet all offer Wi-Fi without needing a phone line! 90003 90099 Naked DSL 90102 90002 Using modern technology, providers can deliver high-speed internet and phone connections at different frequencies.As a result, many internet providers now offer their customers «naked» DSL service (also known as «standalone» DSL or «freestanding» DSL). Naked DSL service is DSL internet without phone service, which many DSL providers previously required. If you already have phone service and DSL internet with a provider, there’s a good chance that naked DSL is available in your area. This option is cost-effective if your household is relatively small and each family member has his or her own mobile device. 90003 90099 Satellite internet 90102 90002 In remote areas of the country where DSL and cable internet are not readily available, satellite internet is an increasingly popular solution for getting internet.Satellite internet service providers beam data signals into your home from satellites hovering above the earth, so they do not need to run hard wires to bring you the web. Other factors, such as interference from bad weather, can affect satellite internet download and upload speeds. However, a variety of companies are designing satellites that operate in lower orbits and deliver stronger, more reliable satellite internet signals. So, do not be surprised if this cost-effective type of internet service earns more business once the next generation of satellites are in orbit.90003 90099 Fixed wireless internet 90102 90002 Certain internet providers, such as AT & T, offer fixed wireless home internet that you can get without a phone, cable or a fiber line. Fixed wireless internet is particularly helpful if it’s available in a rural area where you do not want to buy satellite service. Similar to satellite internet, customers use internet equipment on their homes (via antennas) to pick up internet signals. Instead of communicating with satellites in space, you get the internet via radio signals from local cell towers.Antennas picking up radio signals from cell towers experience less weather interference than satellite signals, so fixed wireless internet can be more reliable. The future of fixed wireless internet is exciting as companies such as Verizon embrace 5G wireless internet networks. Fixed wireless internet will keep growing and connect entire cities to the internet, enabling amazing Wi-Fi connections without needing cable, fiber or DSL lines. 90003 90099 Fiber-optic internet 90102 90002 If you’re looking for the fastest, most secure connection around, there’s a good chance your next internet connection will be fiber.Fiber-optic, or fios, technology is capable of achieving incredible speeds far faster than DSL or satellite by transporting data in the form of light signals through a new kind of wire. Fiber internet wires are made of tiny, transparent glass fibers about the diameter of a human hair. Fiber speeds are so good that you can rapidly download music and movies, but, the downside is that it’s not yet widely accessible. 90003 90004 90100 The bottom line 90101 90005 90002 Your best option for internet without cable or a phone line will depend upon the cellphone service you have, the devices you own, the internet speeds you’ll need, your budget and where you live or travel .90003 90002 We’re happy to help you find high-speed internet service at no cost to you.
