using a coax splitter. Please note that a badly chosen splitter reduces a cable modem’s speed; so if
you need to use a splitter, use a 2-way splitter whose top frequency is 1,000 MHz or higher.
Prepare to activate
By now you should have:
Subscribed to cable Internet service.
Connected your MG7700.
Powered up your cable modem/router. To do this, the On/Off button needs to be On (Push the
button in until it clicks). Wait for the green online connection light to stop flashing and remain
solidly lit. This may take up to 15 minutes.
You should have a recent cable bill handy because it has your account number and you’ll
probably need that.
If you’re asked for information about the MG7700, you can find this on the label on the bottom of
the modem/router.
Activate
For some service providers, you activate by calling them. Many service providers including
Comcast and Cox prefer that you activate by opening the Web browser of a computer that’s
plugged into one of the MG7700’s Ethernet ports. Once you’ve opened the browser, try to go to
www.motorola.com . This should bring you to the service provider’s activation page.
If you don’t have a computer, you can use the Web browser of a WiFi device such as a
smartphone or tablet for activation. In that case you’ll need the unique Wireless Network Name
and Password printed on the bottom of your MG7700. You’ll use these in setting up your wireless
device to connect to the MG7700. Once you’ve connected, you can open the browser of that
wireless device.
