Items You Need

f you are installing the Wideband Cable Modem yourself, make sure you have the

following items on hand before continuing:

•Wideband Cable odem package: see What’s in the Box? for a list of

items in the package.

•Coaxial cable (coax): as shown in the image to the left, this is a thin cable

with a connector on each end. t is the same kind of wire used to connect to

your television for cable TV. You can buy coax from any electronics retailer

and many discount stores; make sure it has connectors on both ends. There

are two types of connectors, slip-on and screw-on; the screw-on connectors

are best for use with your Wideband Cable Modem. The coax should be long

enough to reach from your Wideband Cable Modem to the nearest cable out-

let.

•Splitter (optional): provides an extra cable connection by splitting a sin-

gle outlet into two. You may need a splitter if you have a TV already con-

nected to the cable outlet that you want to use. You can buy a splitter from

any electronics retailer and most discount stores; you may also need a short

piece of coax cable (with connectors); use it to connect the splitter to the

cable outlet and then connect the Wideband Cable Modem and TV to the

splitter.

Note: A splitter effectively cuts the signal in half and sends each half to its

two outputs. Using several splitters in a line may deteriorate the quality of

your television and/or internet connection.

•Wall-mount hardware (optional): if you want to wall-mount your Wide-

band Cable Modem, you need to obtain two drywall anchors or wood screws.

See the Wall-Mount Template and nstructions for more details.

Coax Cable

•Information packet: your cable company should furnish you with a packet

containing information about your service and how to set it up. Read this in-

formation carefully and contact your cable company if you have any ques-

tions.

System Requirements

The Touchstone Wideband Cable Modem operates with most computers. The fol-

lowing describes requirements for each operating system; see the documentation

for your system for details on enabling and conﬁguring networking.

To use the Wideband Cable Modem, you need DOCS S 3.0 high-speed nternet serv-

ice from your cable company.

Recommended Hardware

The following hardware conﬁguration is the minimum recommended. Computers

not meeting this conﬁguration can still work with the WBM760, but may not be able

to make maximum use of WBM760 throughput.

CPU: P4, 3GHz or faster

RAM: 1GB or greater

Hard drive: 7200 RPM or faster

Ethernet: Gig-E (1000BaseT)

Windows

Ethernet connection: Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7

USB connection (if equipped): Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Win-

dows 7

Note: For best results, Windows XP should be conﬁgured with a TCP receive

window size of 256KB (the XP default is 64 KB). The TCP Optimizer pro-

gram, available from speedguide.net, can be used to make this change.

Ethernet or USB?

There are two ways to connect your computer (or other equipment) to the Wide-

band Cable Modem. The following will help you decide which is best for you:

Ethernet

Ethernet is a standard method of connecting two or more devices into a Local Area

Network (LAN). Use the Ethernet connection if your computer has built-in Ethernet

hardware, does not use Windows, or you want to share the Wideband Cable Modem

connection with several computers.

Note: To connect two or more computers to the Ethernet port, you will need a

hub or broadband router (available at computer retailers).

The Wideband Cable Modem package comes with a 6-foot (1.9m) Ethernet cable

(the connectors look like wide telephone connectors); you can purchase a longer

cable if necessary at a computer retailer. f you are connecting the Wideband Cable

Modem directly to a computer, or to an Ethernet hub or broadband router with a

cross-over switch, ask for Category 5 (CAT5) straight-through cable. f you are con-

necting the Wideband Cable Modem to an Ethernet hub or broadband router with-

out a crossover switch, ask for a Category 5 crossover cable.

USB

USB (Universal Serial Bus) is meant for connecting a variety of accessories, such as

keyboards, mice, printers, and communications devices (including Wideband Cable

Modems) to a single computer. Use the USB connection if you have only one com-

puter, and the computer is using a Windows operating system (Windows 2000 or

later), and has no built-in Ethernet hardware. Wideband Cable Modems with USB

ports include a 5-foot (1.6m) USB cable.

Both

f you have two or more computers, you can connect one computer to the Wide-

band Cable Modem’s USB port and one or more other computers to the Ethernet

port. To connect two or more computers to the Ethernet port, you will need a hub

or broadband router (available at computer retailers).

What About Security?

Having a high-speed, always-on connection to the nternet requires a certain

amount of responsibility to other nternet users—including the need to maintain a

reasonably secure system. While no system is 100% secure, you can use the fol-

lowing tips to enhance your system’s security:

• Keep your operating system updated with the latest security patches. Run

the system update utility at least weekly.

• Keep your email program updated with the latest security patches. n addi-

tion, avoid opening email containing attachments, or opening ﬁles sent

through chat rooms, whenever possible.

• nstall a virus checker and keep it updated.

• Avoid providing web or ﬁle-sharing services over your Wideband Cable

Modem. Besides certain vulnerability problems, most cable companies pro-

hibit running servers on consumer-level accounts and may suspend your ac-

count for violating your terms of service.

• Use the cable company’s mail servers for sending email.

• Avoid using proxy software unless you are certain that it is not open for

abuse by other nternet users (some are shipped open by default). Crimi-

nals can take advantage of open proxies to hide their identity when break-

ing into other computers or sending spam. f you have an open proxy, your

cable company may suspend your account to protect the rest of the net-

work.

• f you connect your Wideband Cable Modem to a wireless LAN, make sure

you enable security and encryption on the wireless hub (for the same rea-

sons that you should run only secured proxies). Consult the documentation

and technical support of the wireless equipment provider for help.
