Connecting and Configuring your Router

Modem Requirements
Your cable or DSL modem must be equipped with an RJ45 Ethernet port. Many
modems have both an RJ45 Ethernet port and a USB connection. If you have a modem
with both Ethernet and USB, and are using the USB connection at this time, you will
be instructed to use the RJ45 Ethernet port during the installation procedure. If your
modem has only a USB port, you can request a different type of modem from your ISP,
or you can, in some cases, purchase a modem that has an RJ45 Ethernet port on it.
