Items You Need
If you are installing the Data Gateway yourself, make sure you have the follow ing
items on hand before continuing:
•
Data Gateway package
: see
What’s in the Box?
for a list of items in the
package.
•
Coaxial cable (coax)
: as shown in the image to the left, this is a round
cable with a connector on each end. It is the same kind of wire used to con-
nect to your television for cable TV. You can buy coax from any electronics
retailer and many discount stores; make sure it has connectors on both
ends. There are two types of connectors, slip-on and screw-on; the screw-
on connectors are best for use with your Data Gateway. The coax should be
long enough to reach from your Data Gateway to the nearest cable outlet.
Note:
For best performance, use high-quality RG-6 type coax cable and min-
imize or eliminate splitters between the cable jack and the Data Gateway.
•
Splitter (optional)
: provides an extra cable connection by splitting a sin-
gle outlet into two. You may need a splitter if you have a TV already con-
nected to the cable outlet that you want to use. You can buy a splitter from
any electronics retailer and most discount stores; you may also need a short
piece of coax cable (with connectors); use it to connect the splitter to the
cable outlet and then connect the Data Gateway and TV to the splitter.
Note
: A splitter effectively cuts the signal in half and sends each half to its
two outputs. Using several splitters in a line may deteriorate the quality of
your television and/or internet connection.
•
Wall-mounting bracket (optional)
: if you want to wall-mount your Data
Gateway, you need to obtain two drywall anchors or wood screws and order
a wall-mounting bracket from your cable company.
•
Information packet
: your cable company should furnish you with a packet
containing information about your service and how to set it up. Read this in-
formation carefully and contact your cable company if you have any ques-
tions.

Getting Service
Before trying to use your new Data Gateway, contact your local cable company to
establish an Internet account. When you call, have the fol lowing information ready:
•
the Data Gateway serial number and cable MAC addresses of the unit
(printed on a sticker on the bottom of the Data Gateway)
•
the model number of the Data Gateway
If the Data Gateway was provided by your cable company, they already have the
required information.
In addition, you should ask your cable company the following questions:
•
Do you have any special system requirements or files that I need to down-
load after I am connected?
•
When can I start using my Data Gateway?
•
Do I need a user ID or password to access the Internet or my e-mail?
