1. Check that a coaxial cable is already connected to a cable wall outlet or RF splitter (not

included).

2. Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to the Cable connector on the rear of your Wi-

Fi cable modem.

Use your hand to tighten the connectors to avoid damaging them.

3. Connect the Ethernet cable to an available Ethernet port on the rear of your Wi-Fi cable

modem.

4. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on your computer.

Optional: Repeat steps 3 and 4 for an additional computer or other network device that

you want to install as a wired connection on your home network.

5. Connect the power cord to the Power port on the rear of your Wi-Fi cable modem.

6. Plug the other end of the power cord into an electrical wall outlet that is not controlled by

a wall switch.

Note: This automatically powers ON your Wi-Fi cable modem. There may be up to a

15 second delay for the Power LED on the Wi-Fi cable modem front panel to light up

after the power is connected.

Establish an Internet Connection

Although your computer may already be configured to automatically connect to the Internet,

you should still perform the following Wi-Fi cable modem connectivity test to check that your

devices were installed properly and are successfully connected to your Wi-Fi home network.

1. Power ON your Wi-Fi enabled device (e.g., laptop, computer, smartphone) connected to

your Wi-Fi cable modem if it is turned off, and then log in.

2. Contact your service provider to activate (provision) your Wi-Fi cable modem.
