AC1200 WiFi Cable Modem Router Model C6220 To cable your modem router: 1. Connect the antennas to the threaded antenna posts. 2. Turn off existing modems and routers. If you are replacing a modem that is currently connected in your home, unplug the modem and plug the new modem router into the same outlet. 3. Connect a coaxial cable. Use the coaxial cable that is provided by your cable company to connect the cable port on the modem router to a cable wall outlet. Note: If Charter is your cable Internet service provider (ISP), Charter recommends connecting your modem router directly to a cable wall outlet. If you must use a splitter, use a splitter that is rated at 3.5 dBmv. Make sure that the cable is tightly connected. 4. Connect the power adapter to the modem router and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet. Make sure that the Power On/Off button and the LED On-Off switch on the rear panel of the modem router are in the On position. The startup procedure takes about one minute. When the startup procedure is complete, the Power LED lights green. You can log in to the modem router to view or change its settings.
