Connect Your Router - NETGEAR RBRE960B User Manual

Connect your router

Note: If both your Internet service provider (ISP) and modem support a speed of
10 Gbps, the router's Internet connection also functions at 10 Gbps. Otherwise, the
Internet connection functions at the maximum speed that either your ISP or your modem
supports. (1 Gbps is a common speed.)
Power on your router and connect it to a modem.
To connect your router to a modem:
1. Unplug your modem's power, leaving the modem connected to the wall jack for
your Internet service.
If your modem uses a battery backup, remove the battery.
2. Plug in and turn on your modem.
If your modem uses a battery backup, put the battery back in.
3. Connect your modem to the Internet port of your router with the Ethernet cable that
came with your router.
Note: If both your ISP and modem support a speed that is higher than 1 Gbps (for
example, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps, or 10 Gbps), we recommend that you use the Category
(Cat) 6 Ethernet cable that came in the box. A Cat 6 Ethernet cable is better suited
to higher speeds. If your ISP or modem supports a speed of 1 Gbps, you can use a
Cat 5E Ethernet cable.
4. (Optional) If your package comes with plug adapters for the power adapter, connect
the plug adapter for your region to the power adapter.
