information.
Collect your ISP account information, such as
your account mobile phone number, user name,
password, and account number.

routers.
If you are replacing a modem that is currently
connected in your home, unplug the modem and
plug the new cable modem router into the same
outlet.
3. Connect a coaxial cable.
Use a coaxial cable to
connect the coaxial
cable connector on the

We recommend connecting directly to
the cable wall outlet. If you must share
the connection, use a 3.5dB (1 to 2)
splitter.

Connect the power adapter to the cable modem
router and plug the power adapter into an
electrical outlet.
The startup procedure takes about one minute.

to light solid white.
This process might take up to 10 minutes.
Note: When the Online LED lights, your
cable modem router is still not connected
to the Internet. You must activate your

Orbi cable modem router with WiFi or Ethernet:
