View the Cable Initialization of the Modem Router

You can track the cable initialization procedure of the modem router and get details about the
downstream and upstream cable channels. The time is displayed after the modem router is
initialized.
The modem router automatically goes through the following steps in the provisioning
process:
1. Scans and locks the downstream frequency and then ranges the upstream channels.
2. Obtains a WAN IP address for the modem router.
3. Connects to the Internet.
WARNING:
Do not change the starting frequency unless your cable service
provider instructs you to do so. Changing the starting frequency
incorrectly causes serious connection and Internet problems. If you
must change the starting frequency, see
Connection Starting Frequency
