We strongly recommend that you stand the cable modem vertically. Placing the modem vertically will
normally give you better wireless reception and improve modem cooling. Please rotate the base so it
supports the modem case. After you stand your cable modem upright, remember to adjust your antennas
for best reception – normally with each one pointing up and away from the other antenna.
Before installing your cable modem, please read this.
You need to connect the cable modem to a cable modem service that uses any of the popular DOCSIS
standards – 3.0, 2.0, or 1.1. If you need to get cable modem service, please speak with your cable
service provider.
Your cable service provider will need to know your modem's MAC ADDRESS, which is printed on a
label on the bottom of your modem, and the account number of your cable service. Your account
number can be found on your bill, or you can call your service provider and ask them for your account
number. You need to provide this information when you order cable modem service, or when calling the
cable company after installing your modem, or when filling out the account setup web page that may
appear when you first connect your cable modem to your provider's network. You may also be asked for
your cable modem's model name and number, which is ZOOM 5360. If you need the modem's serial
number, you can find it near the MAC address on the label.
If you are replacing an "old" cable modem, do this:
1
Disconnect the coaxial cable from the old cable modem and connect it to your Zoom modem. If
the coaxial cable has a screw-on connector, turn the connector clockwise when tightening the
cable onto the Zoom cable modem.
2
If there's an Ethernet cable plugged into the old cable modem, unplug the Ethernet cable from the
old cable modem and plug it into any of the Zoom cable modem's LAN jacks.
