Cabling and Startup for a Single User

Allow 5 to 30 minutes to power up the first time because the SURFboard cable modem must find and lock on the appropriate channels for communications.

1

Be sure your computer is on and the cable modem is unplugged.

2

Connect one end of the coaxial cable to the cable outlet or splitter. Connect the

 

other end of the coaxial cable to the CABLE connector on the cable modem.

 

Hand-tighten the connectors to avoid damaging them.

3

Insert the SURFboard Cable Modem CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive.

4

Plug the power cord into the +12VDC connector on the cable modem and the

 

electrical outlet. This turns the SURFboard cable modem on. You do not need to

 

unplug it when not in use.

5

Check that the lights on the cable modem front cycle through this sequence:

 

Power flashes during the self-test and changes to solid green when the self-test

 

is successfully complete.

 

Receive flashes while scanning for the receive (downstream) channel and

 

changes to solid green when it is connected.

 

Send flashes while scanning for the send (upstream) channel and changes to

 

solid green when it is connected.

Always connect coaxial cable to the wall outlet first.

Online flashes while the cable modem downloads configuration data and

changes to solid green when the download is complete.
