See Step 1, “Getting Started.”

Note: Close all programs before running the HomePortal Setup Wizard.
Place the HomePortal Setup Wizard CD in the CD-ROM drive of your computer and follow the onscreen
instructions. It may take up to one full minute for the Setup Wizard to start.
Starting the Setup Wizard manually on Windows PCs
After one minute, if the Setup Wizard does not run automatically, follow these steps:
1. Double-click the My Computer icon located on the desktop.
2. Double-click the icon that corresponds to your CD-ROM drive, then double-click Setup.exe.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions.
First computer only: After the Setup Wizard completes, the
BROADBAND LINK indicator light on the front
of the HomePortal flashes green as it attempts to establish a connection to your broadband service
provider. This could take several minutes. The light will turn solid green when the connection is
established. Your Web browser will automatically launch to complete the installation of the HomePortal
software.
