Setting Up

the Gateway

The instructions that follow parallel the steps contained in the Actiontec Installation
Buddy™, which provides a visual guide to setting up the Gateway. It is recommended

After connecting this first computer, other computers can be added to the network
via USB or Ethernet (see “Setting Up a Network” on page 65).

setup, plugging in the Gateway’s power cord, and connecting the Gateway to the
