INTRODUCTION
The SURFboard T25 is a combination DOCSIS 3.0 telephony cable modem with two Voice-over-IP (VoIP) telephone lines. It uses DOCSIS 3.0 technology to provide ultra-high-speed Internet access on your home or small business network. For whole-home connectivity, use the T25 Ethernet port to add a Wi-Fi router (separate purchase). Using the connection capabilities of the T25, you can connect your computer and other network-enabled devices via the two Ethernet ports. The T25 connects to the existing coaxial cable connection in your home. Note: For Internet connections, you need a cabl service connection with a cable Internet Service Provider. The T25 will not work with DSL or satellite Internet service
Let’s Get Started
- Connect the coaxial cable (not included) from the cable wall outlet or RF splitter to the Cable connector on the rear of your cable modem. Tighten the cable connector by hand.
- Connect the Ethernet cable to Ethernet port 1 on the rear of your cable modem and the Ethernet port on your PC or laptop Ethernet port 2 is bridged to Ethernet port 1. Your Internet service provider may require a subscription to a second IP address to support using both Ethernet ports.
- Connect the power adapter to the Power port on the rear of your cable modem, then plug it into an electrical wall outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch. Your cable modem will automatically power ON when the power adapter is connected
- Check the front panel LEDs on your cable modem. After a brief pause, the first three LEDs should light up SOLID white.
