DCM-100 Ethernet Cable Modem

Installation

The installation of the DCM-100 Ethernet Cable Modem can be completed in a matter of minutes. Be careful to

insure the cables are properly locked into position. Follow these steps (see the figure of the rear panel in Chapter

Two):

1. Connect the coaxial TV cable to the DCM-100 jack labeled “CABLE IN.”

2. Connect the external power adapter into the connector labeled “POWER” and the other end to the

electrical outlet.

3. Connect one end of the 10BASE-T Ethernet cable (Category 5 or better) to one of your PC’s Ethernet ports

and the other end into the DCM-200 connector labeled “ETHERNET.”

Your setup should look something like this:

Important Notice:

♦ The DCM-100 Ethernet Cable Modem will work with the Ethernet port connected directly to a PC, hub,

switch, or a Broadband Router ( i.e. DI-704,DI-713P)

♦ If you shift the Ethernet cable from one PC to another PC, the second PC will not be able to link onto the

Internet until you reboot the DCM-100 by unplugging the power cord and then reinserting it into the

DCM-100.
