Chapter 3: Install and connect your Telephony Gateway

not be any voltage. Cancellation of telephone service is not adequate. Failure to do so

may result in loss of service or permanent damage to the Telephony Gateway.

1. Connect one end of the coax cable to the cable outlet or splitter, and the other end to

the Telephony Gateway’s Cable connector (4). Tighten the connections by hand, then

tighten an additional 1/8 turn with a wrench.

Note: 

 For best performance, use high-quality coax cable and minimize or

eliminate splitters between the cable jack and the Telephony Gateway. If you are

using MoCA for your home network, MoCA filters must be installed on any legacy

client devices. Your service provider will install these filters for you.

2. Insert the plug from the power cord into the Power connector on the back of the

Telephony Gateway (5) and insert the power cord into a convenient AC outlet.

3. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to any Ethernet port on the back of the

Telephony Gateway (3), and the other end to the Ethernet port on a computer, Ethernet

hub, or broadband router.

Note: 

 If you are connecting to a computer, use the Ethernet cable included in the

Telephony Gateway package.

4. Connect one end of the telephone cable to the telephone port on the back of the

Telephony Gateway (2). Connect the other end to the telephone.

Configure your wireless connection

The TG4492 ships with wireless LAN security enabled by default. See the security label on

your product for the factory security settings.
