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.
