Install Your Router
Make sure that your Internet service is active before you install the
router. Follow steps 1 through 5.
1. Prepare your modem.
a. Unplug your modem’s
power.
b. If the modem has a battery
backup, remove its
batteries.
c. If your modem was already
connected to another
router, disconnect the cable
between your modem and
that router.
Now your modem should be
completely turned off, and
cabled only to the wall jack for your Internet service.
2. Connect your modem.
a. Plug in, then turn on your modem. (Replace the batteries if
you removed them previously.)
b. With the yellow Ethernet cable that came with the router,
connect your modem to the Internet port of your router.
