Installing the Router

Description

After the broadband installer has completed the installation and testing process, you will be ready to connect the router.

If you choose to leave the router in the jukebox, simply route an Ethernet cable from the modem or other broadband source into the rear of the jukebox and connect it to the WAN port on the router.

If you decide to relocate the router outside the jukebox, follow the steps below:

1.Select a Location

Please see the ‘Where to Install the Designated Line and Router’ in section 2 for suggested locations.

2.Mount or Place the Router

The best place to install the router is on a shelf or a ledge. If this is not pos- sible, the box can be mounted to a wall. The underside of the box has two holes about 4-1/2" apart on a diagonal. Be sure that you can view the front of the box (non-plug side) where the signal lights are located.

3.Connections

Connect a straight through CAT5 cable from the router port labeled WAN (see Figure 2-3) to the output jack of the broadband equipment. If the provided cable is not long enough, you can pur- chase a longer one or make your own.

4.Power on the Router

Connect the AC power adapter’s out- put plug to the back of the router la- beled 5V-2A. Connect the other end to the Power Outlet in the jukebox (see “Router/Modem Power” in section 2). Use an extension cord if necessary. Different green lights may flash on the router, but should settle to 2 green lights labeled Power and WAN.

5.Connect Router to Jukebox Connect a straight through CAT 5 cable from the router port labeled 1 to the Ethernet jack on the core computer in- side the jukebox. See previous page for more information about construct- ing and installing this cable.
