Connecting a Modem

12160

When a modem is connected to the auxiliary port, a remote user can dial into the router and configure it. You can use the blue console cable that came in the accessory kit or (if you are using the blue cable with the console port) you can use any crossover RJ-45-to-RJ-45 cable.

Take the following steps to connect a modem to the router:

Step 1 Connect one end of the cable to the black AUX port on the router rear panel.

Step 2 Connect the gray adapter labeled MODEM to the other end of the cable.

Step 3 Connect the DB-25 end of the adapter to the modem.
