Cabling Your RouteFinder

Your RouteFinder requires making the appropriate connections to PCs, a cable or xDSL modem, an analog modem or ISDN TA, and AC power.

After your device is properly cabled, it must be configured. See Chapter 3 for basic directions. For advanced configurations, see the User Guide.
