If you connected the Cable Modem/Router to a computer using a wired connection
when setting up the Cable Modem/Router, unplug the computer now if you don’t
want that computer to stay connected to the Cable Modem/Router.

To connect a computer or other Ethernet-capable device, plug one end of an
Ethernet cable into an available Ethernet (LAN 1, 2, 3, or 4) port on the Cable
Modem/Router and plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port of
the additional device you want to connect to the Cable Modem/Router. (If you are
connecting a hub or a switch, this is typically called an Uplink or Expansion port.)
If
you are connecting a computer or game station, go to step 5 of this section.

If you are connecting a network device such as a switching hub, use the instructions
that came with that device. Then reboot any computer that is part of your network.
For example, if you connected a switching hub, reboot any computer that will be
connected to that switching hub.

If you are connecting a HomePlug adapter pair with one adapter plugged into the
Cable Modem/Router and an AC outlet, and the other adapter plugged into a
computer, game station, or other device and an AC outlet, make those connections
and then go to step 5.

Verify that your Internet connection is working. Open a Web browser on each
computer that’s using your network and try to connect to a familiar Web address.

Congratulations! You have connected an additional device to the Internet. You can
