Let’s get started
If you don’t have cable Internet service, please order that from your
cable service provider.
Now connect your MG7550 as shown on the next panel.
Connecting to a Coax Cable
Soon you’ll need to connect your MG7550 to a
“live” coax cable. Sometimes a cable will already be
available. Sometimes there’s a coax wall jack
available, and you connect to the jack with a coax
cable. Your MG7550 can also share a coax cable
attached to a TV by using a coax splitter.
ETHERNET (LAN 1-4)
You can connect a
computer, HDTV, game
station, or other
Ethernet-capable device
to any of these 4 LAN
ports.

POWER
Connect the supplied
power cube between the
power jack and an
electrical outlet.
Prepare to activate
By now you should have:
• Subscribed to cable Internet service.
• Connected your MG7550.
• Powered up your MG7550. To do this, the On/Off button needs to
be On. Wait for the green online connection light
flashing and remain solidly lit.
You should have a recent cable bill handy because it has your
account number and you’ll probably need that.
If you’re asked for information about the MG7550, you can find this
on the label on the bottom of the MG7550.
This may take up to 15 minutes.

Activate
For some service providers, you activate by calling them. Many
service providers including Comcast and Cox prefer that you
activate by opening the Web browser of a computer that’s plugged
into one of the MG7550’s Ethernet ports.
If you don’t have a computer, you can use the Web browser of a
Wi-Fi device such as a smartphone or tablet. In that case you’ll
need the unique Wireless Network Name and Password printed on
the bottom of your MG7550. You’ll use these in setting up your
wireless device to connect to the MG7550. Once you’ve
connected, you can open the browser of that wireless device.
