Cable Modem Overview
What the Modem Does
The Thomson digital cable modem serves as a two-way high-speed bridge between your personal
computer and a cable Internet Service Provider (ISP). It converts information that originates from
the Internet or your computer into electronic messages that can be transported over the same
wires your cable company uses to transport video signals.
A set of rubber pads have been packaged with your
modem. These pads (or "feet") can be attached to keep the
modem from sliding around on your desktop. You have 2
options for placing the pads:
Option 1: Attach the pads to the four slight
indentations on the back of the modem.
Option 2: Attach the pads to the rudders on the
bottom of the cable modem. Be sure to equally space
the pads for best results.
