Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of D-Link DP-311U Wireless Print Server, 1-USB Port, 802.11b, 11MbpsCustomer Review: Hard to install Summary: 2 StarsAlthough I'm not a computer novice, this unit was hard to install. While the green LAN (Ethernet) light came on when plugged into the router or DSL modem, it didn't work when plugged directly into my PC or laptop. Someone here wrote that in such case you need a "crossover" ethernet cable (or adapter). THANK YOU! I learned that routers have the smarts to figure our what type of unit is plugged in, and automatically assign transmit and receive signals to the proper pins. My PC and laptops didn't do that, and the DP-311U wasn't smart enough either. Hence I needed the cross-over cable (just for the one-time setup). Sad thing, before I figured this out, I spoke with 2 people at D-Link's technical support; we spent easily two hours. But neither one suggested the cross-over cable. They must have had tons of calls like this before. Of course, the manual says mothing about this either. Amazing how they waste time and money.
