Installing a Dual In-Line Memory Module

Installing a Dual In-Line Memory Module

You can install a dual in-line memory module (DIMM) to increase the amount of dynamic RAM (DRAM) in the router.

Follow these steps to install a DIMM on the router motherboard:

Warning During this procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage to the router. Do not directly touch the backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself.

Step 1 Locate the DIMM slot on the motherboard, shown in Figure 2.

Step 2 Remove any existing DIMM by pulling the DIMM slot guides (shown in Figure 6) away from the DIMM and down towards the motherboard.

Step 3 Hold the replacement DIMM with the notched edge away from you and facing the router.

Step 4 Insert the DIMM into the DIMM slot, making sure that the notches on the edge of the DIMM are inserted over the bars inside the DIMM slot, as in Figure 6.

Step 5 Press the DIMM firmly into the slot until the slot guides on each side of the slot move up and over the end of the DIMM, as in Figure 6. If the guides do not move up over the edge of the DIMM, move them with your hands.
