You should now contact your local cable company and verify the
following:
■
The cable service to your home should support one-way (or “telco
return”) cable modem access. If your cable company does not provide
one-way service, the 3Com HomeConnect Cable Modem will not be
able to communicate with your cable company’s Internet access
service. You should immediately consult your cable company and
place of purchase to determine the proper 3Com cable modem to use.
You can also visit the following URL for additional information:

■
Your cable provider should set up your cable Internet access account.
Your cable provider will setup an Internet access account that will
allow you to send and receive e-mail, access the World Wide Web,
and receive other Internet services. This account must be setup before
you can use your cable modem.
■
Your cable company may also provide you with a login name and
password for your cable modem Internet access account. Write these
in the blanks below for future reference:
Login name: ______________________
