Chapter 1: Connections and Setup
Connecting Your Devices
1. Before you begin, make sure that all of your hardware is powered off, including the gateway,
PCs, hubs, and switches.
2. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to one of the LAN ports (labeled 1, 2, 3, or 4) on the
back of the gateway and the other end to a standard port on a network device, e.g., a PC,
print server, hub, or switch. Repeat the above step to connect more PCs or network devices to
the gateway.
3. Connect the coaxial cable from the wall to the CABLE jack on the back of the gateway.
4. Connect the power supply cable to the Power jack on the back of the gateway, then plug the
supplied power cable into an AC power outlet.

multiple LEDs will fl ash in unison while the gateway performs self-test diagnostics.
The Cable Modem section of the gateway proceeds with DOCSIS initialization. In this process,
the CM performs the following sequence of steps. For a newly-installed gateway, this can take as
much as 20 minutes to complete.
Tuning - searching for a downstream DOCSIS CM signal
Ranging - establishing 2-way communication with the cable company
Connecting - obtaining the CM IP Address (for IP Stack 1)
• Confi guring - downloading and applying the cable company CM confi guration le
Registering - establishing Internet access with the cable company
During this process, the LED indicators on the front of the unit indicate progress.
