3.2.4 Connecting the WAN
To connect your Gateway to a Wide Area Network (WAN) interface:
1. Connect a coaxial cable to the port labeled MoCA/Cable on the rear panel of the Gateway from a
cable port in your home or office. Use only manufactured coaxial patch cables with F-type
connectors at both ends for all connections.
2. Hand-tighten the connectors to secure the connection.
3. If the modem was not installed by your cable provider (ISP) or is replacing another cable modem,
contact your cable operator to register the Gateway. If the modem is not registered with your cable
operator, it will not be able to connect to the cable network system.
3.2.5 Powering on the Gateway
After making your LAN and WAN connections, use the following procedure to power on the Gateway:
1. Connect the supplied power cord to the port labeled Power on the rear panel of the Gateway.
2. Connect the other end of the power cord to a working power outlet. The Gateway powers on
automatically. The Power LED on the front panel goes ON, and the other front panel LEDs show the
Gateway’s status.
WARNING: Only use the power cord supplied with the Gateway. Using a different power
cord can damage your Gateway and void the warranty.
3.3 Wall-Mounting the Gateway (optional)
The Gateway can be also mounted on a wall. Wall mounting requires hanging the Gateway along its
width (or length) using the three slots on the bottom of the unit and using the Gateway mounting template
(on the next page) for the screws.
WARNING: The Gateway should be wall mounted to concrete or plaster-wall-board. Before
drilling holes, check the structure for potential damage to water, gas or electric lines.
To mount your Gateway on the wall:
1. Print the 1:1 wall mounting template on next page of this guide.
Be sure you print the template at 100% scale. Page scaling should be set to [None] (100%). Do not
reduce or enlarge the scale of the template.
