If it is lit, go to the next step
• Is the phone plugged directly into the Telephony Modem?
Make sure the phone is plugged into the port on the back of the Tele-
phony Modem labeled “Tel 1” for line 1, and “Tel 2” for line 2.
If so, try a different phone. Make sure the new phone is a working phone.
If a known good phone is used and you still don’t have dial tone, try a
different phone cable. If a new phone and cable do not restore dial tone,
call your cable company.
• Is the Telephony Modem plugged into a wall outlet?
If so, unplug the RJ-11 connector at the back of the Telephony Port and
plug in a known working phone. If you now have dial tone, the problem
is with the house wiring. Contact your cable company or a qualified
wiring technician to correct the house wiring. If you still do not have dial
tone, contact your cable company.
