7. Click the Proxies tab.
8. Be sure each proxy in the list is unchecked.
9. Click Apply Now to finish.

Disabling Firewall and Security Software

Disable any firewall or security software that may be running on your computer. For more
information, refer to the documentation for your firewall. After you configure the EMTA,
please re-enable your computer firewall.

Confirming the EMTA's Online Status

Confirm that the Online LED on the EMTA front panel is ON (see Figure 1-1 on page 11). If
the LED is OFF, replace the coaxial cable connecting the EMTA to the cable service. If the
Online LED does not go ON after several minutes, please contact your cable provider to
confirm that the service is active.

Confirming Your Computer's Link Status

Be sure there is an Ethernet cable connecting your computer to the EMTA. Then confirm
that the LEDs for the EMTA port connected to your computer are blinking. If the LEDs are
OFF, the connection between your computer and EMTA is not working properly.
