Connect the Wireless Residential Voice Gateway
The following installation procedure ensures proper setup and configuration for the
residential gateway.
1
Choose an appropriate and safe location to install the residential gateway (close
to a power source, an active cable connection, and your PC-if using high-speed
Internet). For assistance, go to Where Is the Best Location for My Wireless
Residential Voice Gateway? (on page 13).
2
Power off your PC and other networking device; then, unplug them from the
power source.
3
Connect the active RF coaxial cable from your service provider to the coax
connector labeled CABLE on the back of the residential gateway.
Note: To connect a TV, DHCT, set-top, or VCR from the same cable connection,
you will need to install a cable signal splitter (not included). Always check with
your service provider before using a splitter as a splitter may degrade the signal.
Connect your PC to the residential gateway using either of the following
4
connections:
Ethernet Connection: Locate the yellow Ethernet cable, connect one end of
the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on your PC, and connect the other end
to the yellow ETHERNET port on the back of the residential gateway.
Note: To install more Ethernet devices than ports provided on the residential
gateway, use an external mulit-port Ethernet switch(s).
Wireless: Make sure that your wireless device is powered up. You will need
to associate your wireless device with the wireless residential gateway once
the residential gateway is operational. Follow the directions provided for
your wireless device for associating with a wireless access point. If the
residential gateway has a WIRELESS ON/OFF button, make sure that
WIRELESS is enabled by confirming that the ON/OFF indicator is ON. If the
indicator is OFF, press the ON/OFF button to enable the WIRELESS feature.
More information about the factory default configuration of your wireless
residential gateway can be found later in this guide in Configure Wireless
Settings.
