necessary for your application.
The system would start to ask questions for basic configuration. Such as the
language, keyboard map and time zone, etc.
Then the system information appears for something about the detecting of network
hardware, system requires users to load the firmware files for network device rtl8168,
just answer no for this inquiry and move forward.
Then the system would inform you that multiple network interfaces were detected on
the EBOX-3350DX2 Series, and the user to choose the one as primary network
interface, both of them all could be chosen. And the Ethernet cable must be plugged
in this period.

13
