Cabling your RouteFinder

Cabling your RouteFinder requires making the appropriate connections to PCs, analog modem or ISDN TA (optional), AC power and the router. Because this device also provides DHCP server functions, remote access, routing, and firewall protection, after your device is properly cabled, you will need to complete your configuration by following the instructions provided in the Software Installation and Configuration section of this Quick Start Guide.
