Step 1

Connect the coaxial cable to the cable modem.

  1. Locate the Coax Outlet in your home.
  2. Use the coaxial cable provided in the package to connect the coax cable port on the rear panel of the cable modem to a cable wall outlet or a line splitter.
  3. Make sure that the cable connection is hand-tightened to secure the connection
     

Step 2

Connect the Power Adapter to the cable modem.

  1. Plug in the modem Power Adapter to the power port on the Cable Modem and plug the other end of the power adapter into an electrical outlet.
  2. Wait until the four LED lights are SOLID GREEN or BLUE. This may take up to 2 – 3 minutes. If after this time only the green power light is on, it means you're not connected. Please find another coax outlet and try again.
     

Step 3

Plug either a CAT5E or CAT6 ethernet cord to the port labeled 2.5G on the back of the modem. Connect the other end to the WAN or Internet port on the router. If you're not using wireless, you can connect to the ethernet port on one device, such as a PC, Mac or game console.
