How Do I Set Up My High-Speed Internet Access Account?

Before you can use your cable modem, you need to have a high-speed Internet access account. If you do not have a high-speed Internet access account, you need to set up an account with your local service provider. Choose one of the two options in this section.

I Do Not Have a High-Speed Internet Access Account

If you do not have a high-speed Internet access account, your service provider will set up your account and become your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Internet access enables you to send and receive e-mail, access the World Wide Web, and receive other Internet services.

You will need to give your service provider the following information:

The serial number of the modem

The Media Access Control (MAC) address of the modem

These numbers appear on a bar code label located on the cable modem. The serial number consists of a series of alphanumeric characters preceded by S/N. The MAC address consists of a series of alphanumeric characters preceded by MAC. The following illustration shows a sample bar code label.

Write down these numbers in the space provided here.

Serial Number _______________________

MAC Address ________________________

I Already Have an Existing High-Speed Internet Access Account

If you have an existing high-speed Internet access account, you must give your service provider the serial number and the MAC address of the cable modem. Refer to the serial number and MAC address information listed previously in this section.
