USB INSTALLATION: Plug the included USB cable into
the cable modem's USB port and into an available
USB port on your computer. If your USB port is
active, your PC will detect the cable modem within a
few seconds. If you are using the Windows 98
operating system, it may prompt you for a driver
disk. If so, insert the Cable Connections CD-ROM
into your CD-ROM drive and point Windows to your
CD-ROM drive's letter when it asks you where to
find the USB drivers for this device.
2 Verify that your cable modem starts up and initializes
properly. You can tell that your modem is operating
properly if the cable modem Power and Status LEDs are lit a
solid green. If you are powering up your cable modem for
the first time, allow 5 to 15 minutes for this process to
complete. Consult the chapter titled "Cable Modem
Operation" for a more in-depth description of the front
panel LED indicators.
3 Plug the computer's power cord back into the computer.
Switch on the computer. When installation is complete,
your setup should resemble the following diagram.
Installing the Cable Connections
Although you do not need to install the included Cable
Connections CD-ROM to use your cable modem, you will
want to discover the valuable free software products and
Internet service provider offers included on the CD-ROM.
To install the Cable Connections CD, follow the instructions
inside the CD's jacket or on the CD-ROM itself.
