Introduction
Placing the Rubber Feet on the Cable Modem
Cable Modem Overview
Attach the pads to the four posts on the bottom of the modem.
What the Modem Does
The Thomson digital cable modem serves as a two-way high-speed bridge between your personal
computer and a cable Internet Service Provider (ISP). It converts information that originates from
the Internet or your computer into electronic messages that can be transported over the same
wires your cable company uses to transport video signals.
A set of rubber pads have been packaged with your modem. These pads (or "feet") can be
attached to keep the modem from sliding around on your desktop.
