3If you want to get connected to the Internet right away, connect one end of the phone cord to the internal modem port (marked with the icon W) and the other end to an analog telephone line (the type of telephone line found in most residences).
Important Make sure to connect the phone cord to the internal modem port. Don’t connect it to the Ethernet port, which looks similar but is slightly larger and marked with the icon G. If you do, your modem will not function correctly.
Warning Do not connect a digital telephone line to the modem, because the wrong type of line could damage the modem.
