Wired networking

Connect to a wired (Ethernet) network — To set up most wired network connections, all you need to do is plug in a network cable.
Connect to a VPN — Set up a VPN connection to a local network over the internet.
Create a connection with a fixed IP address — Using a static IP address can make it easier to provide some network services from your computer.
Manually set network settings — You may have to enter network settings if they don’t get assigned automatically.
