Installing Your Modem
Requirements
Before installing the modem, make sure that your system meets the
requirements listed below.
System requirements for Internet service
To make sure that your modem operates efficiently for high-speed Internet
service, you must have:
• An Internet-capable computer or Internet appliance equipped with an
Ethernet port
• An active cable input line
• An Internet connection
To access the user guide for this product, you must have a CD or DVD drive.
Getting a high-speed Internet account
You may need a high-speed Internet account in order to take full advantage of
this modem’s features. If you do not have a high-speed Internet account, your
service provider will set up your account and become your Internet Service
Provider (ISP).
You will need to give your service provider information about the modem
in order to use the high-speed Internet features of the modem. Refer to the
system label on the back of your modem for this information.
If you already have a high-speed Internet account
If you already have a high-speed Internet account, you will need to give your
service provider the serial number and MAC address of the modem. Refer to
the system label on the back of your modem for this information.
Modem information
You will need to give your service provider the following information, which is
printed on the bar code label attached to the modem:
• The serial number of the modem. The serial number consists of a series of
decimal characters preceded by S/N.
• The CM Media Access Control (CM MAC) address of the modem. The CM
MAC address consists of a series of hexadecimal characters preceded by
CM MAC.
• Other MAC address numbers as needed.
The following illustration shows a sample bar code label; the image may vary
from the label on the actual product.
Write down these numbers in the spaces provided:
Serial number _______________________
MAC address ________________________
Positioning your modem
The ideal location for your modem is where it has access to outlets and other
devices. Think about the layout of your home or office, and consult with your
service provider to select the best location for your modem. Read this user
guide thoroughly before you decide where to place your modem.
Recommendations:
• Choose a location close to your computer if you will also use the modem
for high-speed Internet service.
• Choose a location that is near an existing RF coaxial connection to
eliminate the need for an additional RF coaxial outlet.
