• If you haven’t already set up your Cable Modem/Router using the Quick Start, go
to
Chapter 2: Installing the Cable Modem/Router.
• If you have already installed your cable modem and want to learn more about
how to connect both wired and wireless computers and other devices to your
Cable Modem/Router go to:
Chapter 3: Connecting Devices to your Cable
Modem/Router.
• Your Cable Modem/Router comes from the factory with a default SSID (Wireless
Network Name), wireless security enabled and a random Pre-Shared Key
(Wireless Password). These default settings for your modem/router are listed on
the bottom label of your cable modem/router. Most users can simply use the
default settings. You may want to change the wireless settings if you are
replacing a wireless router and want to use the same wireless network name and
wireless password as the existing router instead of changing all your wireless
devices to use the Cable Modem/Router’s defaults, or in the unlikely event that
one of the wireless devices only supports WEP security. If you want to make
changes to the default wireless settings, please refer to
Chapter 4: Changing
your Wireless Settings.
• If you are using the Cable Modem/Router for online gaming and need to make
changes to the router’s firewall, please see
Chapter 5: Online Gaming.
• If you are like most users, you will not need to make changes to the Cable
Modem/Router’s advanced settings. If your setup requires you to make changes
to advanced settings, go to
Chapter 6: Advanced Settings.
