Chapter 2: Getting to Know the
Cable Modem with USB and
Ethernet Connection
Overview
A cable modem is a device that allows high-speed data access (such as to the
Internet) via a cable TV network. A cable modem will typically have two connections, one to the cable wall outlet and the other to a computer (PC). The fact
that the word "modem" is used to describe this device can be a little misleading only in that it conjures up images of a typical telephone dial-up modem.
Yes, it is a modem in the true sense of the word since it MOdulates and
DEModulates signals. However, the similarity ends there, as these devices are
much more complicated than telephone modems. Cable modems can be part
modem, part tuner, part encryption/decryption device, part bridge, part router,
part network interface card, part SNMP agent, and part Ethernet hub.
Cable modem speeds vary, depending on the cable modem system, cable network architecture, and traffic load. In the downstream direction (from the network to the computer), network speeds can reach 27 Mbps, an aggregate
amount of bandwidth that is shared by users. Few computers will be capable of
connecting at such high speeds, so a more realistic number is 1 to 3 Mbps. In
the upstream direction (from computer to network), speeds can be up to 10
Mbps. Check with your Cable Internet Service Provider (ISP) for more specific information about upload (upstream) and download (downstream) access
speeds.
In addition to speed, there's no need to dial in to an ISP when you are using your
Cable Modem. Simply click on your browser and you're on the Internet. No
more waiting, no more busy signals.

The Back Panel
The USB Icon
The USB icon shown below marks a USB port on a PC or device.
To use this USB device, you must have Windows 98, Me, 2000, or XP installed
on your PC. If you do not have one of these operating systems, you cannot use
the USB port.
Also, this device requires that a USB port is installed and enabled on your PC.
Some PCs have a disabled USB port. If your port doesn’t seem to be working,
there may be motherboard jumpers or a BIOS menu option that will enable the
USB port. See your PC’s user guide for details.
Some motherboards have USB interfaces, but no ports. You should be able to
install your own USB port and attach it to your PC’s motherboard using hardware purchased at most computer stores.
Your Cable Modem with USB and Ethernet Connection comes with a USB
cable that has two different types of connectors. Type A, the master connector,
is shaped like a rectangle and plugs into your PC’s USB port. Type B, the slave
connector, resembles a square and connects to the USB port on the back panel
of your Cable Modem.

Appendix A: Troubleshooting
Common Problems and Solutions
This section offers solutions to common issues that may occur during the
installation and operation of your Cable Modem.
I cannot access my e-mail or Internet service.
Make sure all of your connections are secure. Your Ethernet cable should
be inserted completely into both the network card on the back of your
computer and the port on the back of your Cable Modem. If you installed
your Cable Modem using a USB port, check the connection of the USB
cable to both devices. Check all cables between your computer and the
Cable Modem for frays, breaks or exposed wiring. Make sure your power
supply is properly plugged into both the modem and a wall outlet or surge
protector. If your Cable Modem is properly connected, the Power LED
and Cable LED on the front of the modem should both be a solid color.
The Link/Act LED should be solid or flashing.
Try pressing the Reset button on the back of your cable modem. Using an
object with a small tip, push the button until you feel it click. Then try
reconnecting to your Cable ISP.
Call your Cable ISP to verify that their service is two-way. This modem is
designed for use with two-way cable networks.
If you installed the Cable Modem using the Ethernet port, make sure that
your Ethernet adapter is operating correctly. Check the adapter in the
Device Manager in Windows to make sure it is listed and has no conflicts.
If you are unsure of how to do this, check your Windows documentation.
Make sure that TCP/IP is the default protocol in use by your system. See
the section called Installing the TCP/IP Protocol for more information.
If you are using a cable line splitter so that you can connect the cable
modem and a television at the same time, try removing the splitter and
reconnecting your cables so that your Cable Modem is connected directly
to your cable wall jack. Then try reconnecting to your Cable ISP.
Instant BroadbandTMSeries
3. Windows will now search for the driver software. Click the Next button.
4. When Windows has completed installing the driver, click Finish.
The Windows XP driver installation is complete. Return to the section
on Connecting Using the USB Port to finish the set up.
18
Figure 3-18
Figure 3-19
Instant BroadbandTMSeries
The Cable Status LED never stops blinking.
Has the Cable Modem's MAC address been registered with your ISP? In
order for your Cable Modem to be operational, you must call and have the
ISP activate the modem by registering the MAC address from the label on
the bottom of the modem.
Make sure that the Coax cable is firmly attached between the Cable
Modem and the wall jack.
The signal from your cable company's equipment may be too weak or the
cable line may not be properly attached to the Cable modem. If the cable
line is properly connected to the Cable modem, call your cable company
to verify whether or not a weak signal may be the problem.
All of LEDs on the front of my modem look right, but I still can't access the
Internet.
If the Power LED, Link/Act, and Cable LEDs are on but not blinking,
your cable modem is operating properly. Try shutting down and powering
off your computer and then turning it back on. This will cause your computer to re-establish communications with your Cable ISP.
Try pressing the Reset button on the back of your cable modem. Using an
object with a small tip, push the button until you feel it click. Then try
reconnecting to your Cable ISP.
Make sure that TCP/IP is the default protocol in use by your system. See
the section called Installing the TCP/IP Protocol for more information.
The power on my modem goes on and off sporadically.
You may be using the wrong power supply. Check that the power supply
you are using is the one that came with your Cable Modem.
