LIGHTNING

Your Modem Mate has built-in protection circuits to re- duce the risk of damage from surges in phone and power line current. These protection circuits meet or exceed FCC requirements. However, lightning striking the phone line or power lines can damage your Modem Mate.

Lightning damage is not common. Nevertheless, if you live in an area that has frequent electrical storms, we suggest that you unplug your Modem Mate during storms to reduce the possibility of damage.
