Cabling and Startup for a Single User Allow 5 to 30 minutes to power up the first time because the SURFboard cable modem must find and lock on the appropriate channels for communications. 1 Be sure your computer is on and the cable modem is unplugged. 2 Connect one end of the coaxial cable to the cable outlet or splitter. Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to the CABLE connector on the cable modem. Hand-tighten the connectors to avoid damaging them. 3 Insert the SURFboard Cable Modem CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. 4 Plug the power cord into the +12VDC connector on the cable modem and the electrical outlet. This turns the SURFboard cable modem on. You do not need to unplug it when not in use. 5 Check that the lights on the cable modem front cycle through this sequence: • Power flashes during the self-test and changes to solid green when the self-test is successfully complete. • Receive flashes while scanning for the receive (downstream) channel and changes to solid green when it is connected. • Send flashes while scanning for the send (upstream) channel and changes to solid green when it is connected. • Online flashes while the cable modem downloads configuration data and changes to solid green when the download is complete.
