Here’s what to do: We’re here to help.
Connect to the network
Open the wifi settings on your smartphone,
tablet, or computer.
Connect to the network using the
network name (SSID) and password from the
bottom label on the Gateway. Then surf the web
to verify that your internet is working.
We recommend you personalize your network
information because it’ll be easier to remember and
more secure. Just download the Cox Panoramic
Wifi app and sign in to manage your network.

FAQs
What if my ONT is on a garage or outside wall?
Don’t connect it directly to the Gateway.
Instead, plug the Ethernet cable into the ETH 1
port on the back of the Gateway and the other
end to an active Ethernet wall jack that’s inside.
Then continue the install at step 2.
How do I remove the ONT’s faceplate?
Depending on your type of ONT, you’ll either
slide down the faceplate or pinch the sides to
lift it off.
Why isn’t my Gateway working?
Try rebooting it—just unplug the power cord
from the Gateway, wait about 10 seconds, then
plug it back in. Make sure all of the connections
are tight and completely plugged in. It’ll take a
few minutes to fully reset. It’s important not to
unplug or reboot the ONT.

Instructions
Panoramic Wifi Gateway
for Fiber
Ethernet cable
If the ONT already has an Ethernet
cable connected, then you won’t
need the one included in the kit.
Cox has already installed an Optical Network
Terminal (ONT) at your residence to deliver your
internet service. You’ll need to locate the ONT
before connecting it to the Gateway. It’s usually
mounted to an inside wall or inside a smart
panel. If your ONT is on a garage or outside wall,
follow the steps listed on the back FAQs panel.
Refer to your ONT to check the following:
• Ensure the POWER light on the ONT is
solid green. Next, check that the PON or
BROADBAND light is solid green.
• If the lights are not solid green, then we’ll
need to help you get set up. Call
1-888-556-1193 for assistance.
Plug in the power cord
Plug the power cord into the Gateway and
the wall outlet. Plugging it in powers it on. Then
wait about 10 minutes for it to fully boot up.

Plug in the Ethernet cable
Look at the ONT to see if there’s already an
Ethernet cable connected.
If there is a visible Ethernet cable, then connect
it to the ETH 1 port on the back of the Gateway.
If there is not a visible Ethernet cable, then
remove the ONT’s faceplate and plug the
Ethernet cable into the ONT’s Ethernet port.
Plug the other end into the ETH 1 port on the
Gateway. Then reattach the faceplate.
IMPORTANT: Don’t touch or disturb the PON/
WAN cord. There are dangerous lasers in use.

Tips
• Place the Gateway at least 3 feet above ground
and avoid cramped spaces in order to get the
strongest wifi signal.
• If you have Cox phone service and want to use
the Gateway for it, insert your phone cord into
the TEL 1 port on the back of the Gateway.
