Getting Started

Your Zoom™ cable modem is designed to connect your

personal computer to the Internet through the same cable that

you use for television reception. You can connect your external

cable modem to a computer in one of two ways: You can use

its Ethernet (10/100BaseT) interface or its USB (Universal

Serial Bus) interface.

Contacting Your Cable Company

Please fill out the information in the following table before you

begin installing your Zoom cable modem. Your cable service pro-

vider needs this information to ensure that your modem connects

to the Internet successfully. Note: This manual assumes that you

have already arranged for cable modem service and established a

cable modem account with your cable company.

Important Installation Information

The following information is located on the label on the back of your

modem. You will be asked to provide it when you call for installation.

puter, you will need the Ethernet card’s MAC Address. If you don’t know it

or can’t find it, see page 38 for detailed instructions.

You Will Also Need

To complete your installation, you must have these items:

•Cable modem service provided by your cable company. The

service must be DOCSIS- (Data Over Cable Service Interface

Specification) or EuroDOCSIS-compatible, where applicable.

•A power outlet.

•A 75-ohm coaxial cable that will connect to the cable TV sys-

tem and that can reach to where you intend to place your cable

modem.

Note: Because there is great variety in the way cable is installed,

Zoom does not provide a coaxial cable to connect your

modem to your cable system. Your cable company may

provide the appropriate length cable for your use. If the

company doesn’t supply the cable, you should buy a coax-

ial cable with an RG-59 or RG-61U rating (75 ohm) and

industry-standard F connectors.

Tip: For best performance, do not use “push-on” F con-

nectors; use only “screw-on” F connectors.

To Use the Ethernet Option

If you want to use your cable modem’s Ethernet interface option,

make sure you have

•A computer running the Windows®95, 98, NT 4.0, 2000, Mil-

lennium (Me), XP, or Linux operating system, or a Macintosh®

running System 7.5 or later.

•An Ethernet (10BaseT or 100BaseT) port in the computer you

want connected to your cable modem. If your computer

doesn’t have an Ethernet port, you will need to buy a Network

Interface Card (NIC) and install it before completing the cable

modem setup. Some cable operators offer the option of pro-

viding and installing the NIC card.

6 Zoom Cable Modem User’s Manual

To Use the USB Option

If you want to use your cable modem’s USB interface option, make

sure you have

•A computer running the Windows 98, 2000, Millennium (Me),

or XP operating system.

•An available USB port on your computer. If your computer

doesn’t have a USB port, we recommend that you use the ca-

ble modem’s Ethernet option.

IMPORTANT

You can use either the Ethernet or the USB option but not both

simultaneously. If you change interface options while the cable

modem is connected, the modem will resynchronize with the cable

company. You must restart your computer. You may also have to

install software from your CD.

Familiarizing Yourself with Your Cable

Modem

Your Zoom cable modem has several LED light indicators on its

front panel, so you can monitor its operation and perform trouble-

shooting if necessary.

The following table defines these lights and explains how to inter-

pret them. This table is for reference only and is not required for

cable modem installation.

If you would like to use your cable modem with multiple comput-

ers, you can do so by adding a hub, router, or gateway. Zoom of-

fers gateway/routers that work with your cable modem. You will

also have to contact your cable service provider.
