Note: If you’re connecting a single computer to the modem, you may use either the modem’s USB or Ethernet port. If you’re connecting more than one computer, you must use the Ethernet port combined with a Router. USB Connection If you’re connecting the modem to one computer using the USB port, you must have: • Windows® 98 Second Edition, Me, 2000, or XP. • An available USB port in the computer. • A USB cable. Note: There is one USB cable in the box with the cable modem. Ethernet Connection If you’re connecting the modem to one or more computers, for each computer you must have: • An available RJ-45 Ethernet port (or adapter) – either built-in or from a network interface card (NIC) installed on the PC. • TCP/IP networking installed. • Windows® computers: Client for Microsoft® Networks software installed. Note: TCP/IP and Client for Microsoft Networks is installed on most Windows computers. Please see Windows Help if you need help installing either on a Windows computer. • A Category 5 (Cat 5) Ethernet patch cable. Note: There is one cable in the box with the cable modem. Additionally, if you want to connect more than one computer to the modem, you need: • A Ethernet router, hub, or switch (for example, RP614 Cable/DSL Web Safe Router Gateway). Note: If using a hub or switch, you may need to get additional IP addresses from your ISP. 2 22 Install the Cable Modem After unpacking the box, you can install the cable modem. You do not have to power down any equipment to do this, but if you need to move your computer (perhaps to get to a port in the back), you may want to shut down the computer before moving it.

Connect the CATV cable from the wall outlet to the Cable port on the modem. 2. Connect the USB cable to the USB port on the modem and to a USB port on the computer. 3. Connect the power adapter into the back of the modem and then plug the adapter into a power source (such as a wall socket or power strip).
