Your Internet cable is not plugged in
message
If you get a “Your Internet cable is not plugged in” message when trying to set up your router:
•
Make sure that an ethernet or internet cable (or a cable like the one supplied with your router)
is securely connected to the yellow Internet port on the back of the router and to the
appropriate port on your modem. This port on the modem is usually labeled Ethernet.
•
Make sure that your modem is connected to power and is turned on.
If your internet service is cable, verify that the cable
modem’s CABLE port is connected to the coaxial cable
provided by your ISP. If your internet service is DSL, make
sure that the DSL phone line is
connected to the modem’s DSL port.
