There are two ways to connect modems to the gateway: using the WAN port (if
you are using a cable or DSL modem), or the COM port (if you are using an analog
or ISDN modem)
Cable or DSL Modem Connection
To connect a cable or DSL modem to the gateway, use one of the included
Ethernet cables to connect the WAN port of the gateway to your modem, as
shown in the figure below. See your cable or DSL modem documentation for
more details.
