Ethernet Connection to One Computer

Make the connections to the modem in the following sequence:
1. Connect one end of the coaxial cable to the cable connection on the wall, and the other end to the
CABLE jack on the Residential Voice Gateway.
2. Connect the plug from the AC power supply into the DC jack on the Residential Voice Gateway, and
plug the power supply into an AC outlet.
3. Note: Use only the power supply that accompanied this unit. Using other adapters may damage the
unit. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable (straight-wired, see below) to the Ethernet port on the
back of your computer, and the other end to the ETHERNET port on the Residential Voice Gateway.
Make sure that the Ethernet cable is straight-wired (not "null" or crossover-wired). However, you
will need a crossover-type cable if you are connecting the modem to a hub, or a hub within a port
switch that provides the same function.
