CONNECTING AND CONFIGURING YOUR CABLE/DSL GATEWAY ROUTER
Verify the contents of your box. You should have the following:
•Belkin Cable/DSL Gateway Router
•Vertical Mounting Base (optional use)
•Category 5 Networking Cable (for connection of the Router to the computer)
•Power Supply
•Belkin Easy Install Wizard Software CD

Modem Requirements
Your cable or DSL modem must be equipped with an RJ45 Ethernet port. Many modems have both an RJ45 Ethernet port and a USB connection. If you have a modem with both Ethernet and USB, and are using the USB connection at this time, you will be instructed to use the RJ45 Ethernet port during the installation procedure. If your modem has only a USB port, you can request a different type of modem from your ISP, or you can, in some cases, purchase a modem that has an RJ45 Ethernet port on it.

Easy Install Wizard
Belkin has provided our Easy Install Wizard software to make installing your Router a simple and easy task. You can use it to get your Router up and running in minutes. The Easy Install Wizard requires that your Windows 98, Me, 2000, or XP computer be connected directly to your cable or DSL modem and that the Internet connection is active and working at the time of installation. If it is not, you must use the “Alternative Setup Method” section of this manual to configure your Router. Additionally, if you are using an operating system other than Windows 98, Me, 2000, or XP, you must set up the Router using the “Alternative Setup Method” section of this manual.
