Automated Synchronization
The lights on the modem’s front panel indicate the status of the
synchronization process. After the modem completes a self-test, it
synchronizes with the cable provider network. During this process,
the
SYNC
light blinks, rapidly at first, then slowly. The
ACT
light
flickers briefly as the modem receives information from the cable
provider. When the process is complete, the
SYNC
light stays
steady On. For details on the front panel lights and their modes,
refer to
Appendix A
.
Note: When your modem receives power for the first time,
synchronization can take 20 seconds to five minutes.
This completes the installation of the modem. Please turn to the
next chapter,

.
Tip:If you want to use your cable modem with more than one
Mac, please contact your cable service provider or Global
Village Sales at 800-631-3116.
