If you are going to hook up a cable modem, you will be happy to know that it is not very hard to do. Some people assume that it is hard and so they hire someone else to do this for them. If you feel more comfortable doing this, you can feel free to approach it from this direction. However, you can save yourself some money if you just hook everything up on your own. The following are the few basic steps that you need to follow to get your cable internet set up in your home.
First, you will need to plug the modem into the cable that brings the internet into your home. This is typically a coax cable. It should just be plugged into the corresponding port on the back of the modem. Many times, people make the mistake of thinking that this line can be plugged directly into the computer, but this is not the case. You need to have the modem between the computer and the line so that it can translate the signal for the computer.
Next, you need to plug another cable into the back of the modem and then run it into the ethernet port on your computer. If you have a wireless router, you will run this cord from the modem to the router and then the computer will use its wireless card to connect to the router. If you are not using the wireless router and you only want to hook one computer into the system at a time, you can do it by plugging the ethernet cable right into the computer.
At this point, you can plug in the power cable for the modem. It will turn on automatically, without the use of a switch or a button. You can also plug in the wireless router if you have one. If not, you will be ready to go. You just need to connect to the internet. If you are using the wireless router, you will need to connect to it and set it up. You need to create a name for the router and you need to create a password.
