Reference Manual for the Model CG814M Wireless Cable Modem Gateway
Connecting the Power Adapter
To connect the power adapter to the gateway:
1.Plug the connector of the power adapter into outlet on the rear panel of the modem.
2.Plug the other end of the adapter into an AC power outlet.
3.Verify that the PWR LED on the modem is lit.
After applying power to the gateway, complete the following steps to verify that power is correctly applied:
1.When power is first applied, verify that the Power LED comes on. All the numbered LAN LEDs will be briefly tested.
2.After approximately 10 seconds, verify that the local Ethernet or USB port LED is lit for the port that is connected to your computer.
If a port’s LED is lit, a link has been established to the connected device. If a local Ethernet port is connected to a 100 Mbps device, verify that the port’s LED is green. If the port is 10 Mbps, the LED should be yellow.
Log in to the Gateway
Note: To connect to the gateway, your computer needs to be configured to obtain an IP address automatically via DHCP. Please refer to Appendix C, "Preparing Your Network" for instructions on how to do this.
1.Turn on the gateway.
2.Now, turn on your computer.
Note: If you usually run software to log in to your Internet connection, do not run that software.
