Connect your modem-router
To connect your modem-router:
1.
Power down all your network devices, including your computer(s) and
the modem-router° If you currently use a modem, disconnect it now—
the modem-router replaces your modem°
2.
Connect one end of the provided Ethernet cable to your computer’s
Ethernet adapter and the other end to an
Ethernet
port on the back of
the modem-router°
3.
Repeat step 2 for each additional computer or device that you want to
connect to the modem-router°
NOTE
If your computer’s Ethernet adapter is not set up, refer to the

If you experience static on your phone line, you may need a
microfilter or splitter° (This is required for users in the UK; other
users should contact their ISPs to verify° ISDN users do not need
a microfilter°) If you require a microfilter, you must install one for
each phone or fax that you use° To install a microfilter, plug it into
a phone jack that has ADSL service, then connect one end of the
provided phone cable to the microfilter’s DSL port°
6.
Connect one end of the power adapter cord to the
Power
port and the
other end to the electrical outlet°
