Hardware Installation
you power cycle the P964, the next connection process will be faster.
2.5
Network Configuration of Your Computer
You must have a network interface card installed on your computer and configure the TCP/IP protocol stack
properly. For Windows® 95/98/NT/2000, please configure your computer as a DHCP client. The IP address
identifies the computer on the network and enables the headend CMTS to route data to and from your
computer.
For Windows
®
95/98, you can use the following command to verify the TCP/IP configuration.
Winipcfg
For Windows
®
NT/2000/XP, you can use the following command.
Ipconfig
2.6
Router Configuration
You do not need to ask your cable company for a special configuration. The Prestige can act as a DHCP client
to acquire an IP address from the headend. Besides, it can act as a DHCP server at the LAN port and assign an
IP address to your computers on the LAN subnet. What you have to do is to configure the LAN port with the
proper IP address and netmask. If you already have a DHCP server on your LAN subnet, you can disable the
DHCP server in the Prestige but you have to assign an IP address/netmask for the LAN port.
2.7
Power On Your Prestige
At this point, you should have connected at least one of the LAN ports and/or USB port, the cable port and the
power port to the appropriate devices or lines. Plug the power adapter into a wall outlet.
When connected, it is powered on, the Prestige executes an automatic installation procedure:
1.
Scans and locks on to the service provider’s downstream frequency.
2.
Obtains timing, signal, power level, authentication, addressing, and other operational parameters from
the headend CMTS.
3.
Downloads its configuration file and is then operational.
During the initialization, the LEDs on the Prestige turns on:
1.
The Power LED should be ON.
2.
The CABLE LED will be flashing on a 2 seconds on/off cyclic duration while scanning the downstream
channel and then on a 1 second on/off cyclic duration when it has locked on to a downstream channel
and is communicating with the headend CMTS. Once the cable connection is complete it will remain
ON.
3.
The DATA LED flashes when the cable downstream, cable upstream is receiving and transmitting data.
It will turn OFF when the connection is idle.
4.
The LAN1 to LAN5 or USB LEDs (depending on the port connected) will be ON if Ethernet/USB link
is successful and flashing while sending/receiving data.
