Where Is the Best Location for My Cable Modem?

The ideal location for your cable modem is where it has access to outlets and other
devices. Think about the layout of your home or office, and consult with your
service provider to select the best location for your cable modem. Read this user's
guide thoroughly before you decide where to place your cable modem.
Consider these recommendations:
Position your PC and cable modem so that they are located near an AC power

outlet.
Position your PC and cable modem so that they are located near both an existing

cable input connection and an existing telephone outlet to eliminate the need to
install additional cable or telephone outlets. There should be plenty of room to
guide the cables away from the modem and the PC without straining or
crimping them.
Airflow around the cable modem should not be restricted.

Choose a location that protects the cable modem from accidental disturbance or

harm.
