modem.
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.
d. Check that your modem is
turned off and cabled only to
the wall jack for your Internet service.
2. Connect your modem.
a. Plug in and turn on your modem. (Replace the batteries if you
removed them previously.)

connect your modem to the Internet port of your router.
