CONNECTING THE CABLE MODEM

Connect one end of the USB cable to the USB port located on the back of your

computer. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the USB port on the cable

modem's back panel.

Note: Use only the power supply that accompanied this unit. Using other power supplies

may damage the unit.

If you have Windows 98 SE, go to step 6 on page 14. If you have Windows 2000, go to

step 6 on page 17. If you have Windows Me go to step 6 on page 21.

Using Windows 98 SE for USB Connection

Follow steps 6 through 14 if you have a Windows 98 SE operating system:

When the "Add New Hardware Wizard" appears, click "Next" to initiate the search

for drivers for your USB device. (fig. 13)

Note: If the "Add New Hardware Wizard" did not automatically appear, Windows 98 SE does

not recognize the cable modem's presence because your BIOS (Basic Input/Output System)

settings may not permit USB and/or Plug-and-Play devices. Please contact your computer's

customer service department.

Choose "Search for the best driver (recommended)" option, and click "Next."
