How do you connect a wireless access point to a network switch that gets Internet from a cable modem?
There are at least two ways. First, you connect the wireless
router directly to the cable modem, and then the switch in the
wireless router. You have to connect the cable coming from the
modem in the wireless router internet port. Second, you connect the
wireless router to the switch, again the cable coming from the
switch you have to connect on the wireless router internet port.
It's better to put the wireless router just after the modem, but
it's not required.
