How Do I Set Up My High-Speed Internet Access Account?

Before you can use your cable modem, you need to have a high-speed Internet
access account. If you do not have a high-speed Internet access account, you need to
set up an account with your local service provider. Choose one of the two options in
this section.

I Do Not Have a High-Speed Internet Access Account

If you do not have a high-speed Internet access account, your service provider will
set up your account and become your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Internet access
enables you to send and receive e-mail, access the World Wide Web, and receive
other Internet services.

You will need to give your service provider the following information:

 

The serial number of the modem

 

The Media Access Control (MAC) address of the modem

These numbers appear on a bar code label located on the cable modem. The serial
number consists of a series of alphanumeric characters preceded by S/N. The MAC
address consists of a series of alphanumeric characters preceded by MAC. The
following illustration shows a sample bar code label.

Write down these numbers in the space provided here.

Serial Number _______________________

MAC Address ________________________
