Connecting the WAN
To connect your Gateway to a Wide Area Network (WAN) interface:
1. Connect a coaxial cable from a cable port in your home or office to the port labeled
CABLE
on the
rear panel of the Gateway (see Figure 2 on page 5). Use only manufactured coaxial patch cables
with F-type connectors at both ends for all connections.
2. Hand-tighten the connectors to secure the connection.
3. If the modem was not installed by your cable provider (ISP) or is replacing another cable modem,
contact your cable operator to register the Gateway. If the modem is not registered with your cable
operator, it will not be able to connect to the cable network system.
Powering on the Gateway
After making your LAN and WAN connections, use the following procedure to power on the Gateway.
1. Connect the supplied power cord to the port labeled
POWER
on the rear panel of the Gateway (see
Figure 2 on page 5).
2. Connect the other end of the power cord to a working DC power outlet. The outlet should not be
controlled by a wall switch to avoid someone unknowingly turning off power to the outlet.
3. Press the
ON/OFF
button on the front panel of the Gateway (see Figure 1 on page 3). The Gateway
powers on automatically. The
POWER
LED on the front panel goes ON and the other front panel
LEDs show the Gateway’s status.
WARNING:
Only use the power supply furnished with the Gateway. Using a different power
supply can damage your Gateway and void the warranty.
