2Plug the included power cube into a power strip or wall outlet
and then into the modem’s power (PWR) jack.
IMPORTANT: Use only the power cube shipped with the
modem. Other power cubes may damage your hardware.
The PWR light should become steady on, and the LINK light
should blink once. If the PWR light doesn’t turn on, make sure
there is power at the wall outlet or power strip where you
plugged in the power cube.

Hardware Installation disclaimer box or a Digital Signature
Not Found dialog box. You can safely ignore these messages
and click Yes or Continue Anyway.
Windows XP Users: If prompted, click Finish.

6Finally, while phone filters are not absolutely required, we
HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you install a filter on
EVERY phone that is sharing the DSL phone line. Phone
filters block the DSL frequencies so that someone making a
normal phone call won’t hear noise on the line. They also keep
phone conversations from interfering with DSL performance.
You may have received DSL filters with your Duo. If you did
not, or need more filters, they are available at most retail stores
that carry consumer electronics.
