Cisco Systems 1800 Connecting Cables, WAN and LAN Connections, From the router first. Statement

Step 1 Strip one end of the ground wire to expose approximately 3/4 inch (20 mm) of conductor.

Step 2 Crimp the 14 AWG green ground wire to a UL Listed/CSA certified ring terminal, using a crimping tool that is recommended by the ring terminal manufacturer. The ring terminal provided on the back panel of the router is suitable for a No. 6 grounding screw.

Step 3 Attach the ring terminal to the chassis as shown in Figure 1. Use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver and the screw supplied with the ring terminal. Tighten the screw to a torque of 8 to 10 inch-pounds (0.9 to 1.1 newton meters.)

Step 4 Connect the other end of the ground wire to a known good electrical grounding point such as a service panel grounding lug. Consult a licensed electrician if you have any questions about the suitability of the ground connection.
