Self-installation guide for your Sagemcom F@st 

3896 modem

Connect the coaxial cable provided from the wall outlet to the cable 
connector at the rear of the modem. Firmly hand-tighten the cables to 
avoid damaging the connectors.

Connect the power cord to the modem and to an active electrical outlet. 
This will start the synchronization process. It can take up to 20 minutes 
for the modem to come online. Once the process is complete, the DS (      ) 

and US (      ) lights will be lit (orange or green) and the 2.4G (      ) and 

5G (      ) lights will turn green.

 

 

If you do not see the correct indicator light pattern after 20 minutes, try 
moving your modem to another coaxial outlet in your home and repeat 
the above process.
