Important Your computer or device has a three-wire grounding plug that will fit only a
grounded AC outlet. If you are unable to insert the plug in the outlet, contact a licensed
electrician to replace the outlet with a properly grounded outlet.

power socket and firmly seated for your computer to operate correctly.
Important Make sure you connect the modem to an analog phone line, the kind typically
used in homes.

the power cord from the outlet or from the back of the computer.
