Power LED 

When this LED is ON, the Modem is ON. 
 

(2)

 

Cable LED 

This LED indicates the status of the Modem. When flashing fast, the Modem is scanning for a 
signal to lock onto. When flashing slowly, the Modem has locked onto a signal and is now 

negotiating the connection to your ISP. When the LED is ON solid, the Modem is connected to 

your ISP. 

 

(3) 

LAN LED

 

When this LED is ON, there is a good connection between your computer or Router and the 

Modem. 

 

(4)

 

USB LED 

When this LED is ON, there is a good connection via USB to your computer. 

 

(5)

 

Activity LED 

When this LED is blinking, data is moving from or to the Internet through the Modem.

Cable Connector 

Connect the coaxial cable from the wall to this connector. Be sure to screw the connector on 
tightly. 

 

(7)

 

LAN Port 

Connect a computer with an Ethernet port (networking port) to this port. You may also connect 

a Gateway Router to this port.

(10)

 

Standby Switch 

This switch allows you to disconnect your entire network (or single computer) from the 

Internet. Disconnecting your network from the Internet will disable Internet access to your 

computers and also keep outside traffic from the Internet from coming in on your Modem. If 
you leave your computer on all of the time, you might choose to disconnect it from the 
Internet when you are gone. This heightens the level of security if you are not running firewall 
software. If you want to restrict access to the Internet for children, you can use this switch 

when you cannot supervise your children. Press the switch IN to disconnect the network. Press 

it again and it will pop out. When the switch is out, your network is connected to the Internet.
