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�
Setup Assistant
Belkin has provided our setup Assistant software to make installing your
router a simple and easy task� You can use it to get your router up and
running in minutes� The setup Assistant requires that your Windows 2000,
XP, or Vista, or Mac Os X v10�4 or v10�5, computer be connected directly
to your cable or Dsl modem and that the internet connection is active and
working at the time of installation� if it is not, you must use the “Alternate
setup Method” section of this User Manual to configure your router�
Additionally, if you are using an operating system other than Windows
2000, XP, or Vista, or Mac Os X v10�4 or v10�5, you must set up the
router using the “Alternate setup Method” section of this User Manual�
