①
Locate the coaxial outlet in home desired to place the Access Point. Unplug
the end of the coaxial cable connected to the TV set or set-top box from its
coaxial wall outlet. If no TV set or set-top box is plugged into this coaxial outlet,
skip to step 3.
②
Connect the end of the coaxial cable removed in step 1 into the coaxial port
labeled CATV or TV on the side of the Access Point.
③
Connect one end of another coaxial cable into the coaxial port labeled MoCA
on the side of the Access Point.
④
Connect the other end of the coaxial cable installed in step 3 to the wall outlet
left unconnected in step 1.
⑤
Connect one end of an Ethernet cable into the any LAN port on the side of the
Access Point.
⑥
Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port of
the device to be connected to Internet. The extra Ethernet port (LAN1 to LAN4)
can be connected to additional computer or network device.
⑦
Plug in the provided power adapter into the power port on the side of the
Adapter. Plug the other end of the power adapter into an electrical outlet or
power source.

The Access Point’s default SSID and password are labeled on the unit. Both
2.4GHz (802.11 b/g/n/ac) and 5GHz (802.11ac) Wi-Fi access points should be
available for joining.
Refer to the Start Guide to configure SSID, password, firewall, and security
settings of the Access Point.
⑨
Maximum 16 Adapters can be connected through coaxial cabling in house to
