Figure 4. Connect the modem router directly to a computer
Note: Before you connect your modem router and contact your cable Internet provider,
collect your cable account number, account phone number, and login information (your
email address or user name and password).
To connect your modem router directly to a computer:
1. Connect a coaxial cable.
Use the coaxial cable that your cable company provided to connect the cable port
on the modem router to a cable wall outlet or a line splitter. Make sure that the cable
is tightly connected.
Note: If Xfinity is your cable Internet provider, Xfinity recommends connecting your
modem router directly to a cable wall outlet.
2. Connect the power adapter provided in the package to the modem router and plug
the power adapter into an electrical outlet.
When the startup procedure is complete, the Power LED lights solid white.
If the Power LED does not light, press the Power On/Off button on the rear panel
of the modem router.
3. Wait for the modem router to come online.
When the modem router comes online, the Online LED stops blinking and lights
solid white.
This process might take up to 10 minutes.
Even though an Internet connection is established, Internet service is available only after
you set it up with your cable Internet provider.
