6. Now plug your modem’s power cord back into an
electrical power outlet.
NOTE: You should allow enough time for your modem to complete its start-up
process. If you’re unsure about how long this takes, consult the manual that
came with your modem. Typical modem start-up takes 60 seconds.
7. Next, using the power cord that came with your Vonage
kit, plug the smaller end of the power cord into the
circular power port on the back of the Vonage Device.
Then, plug the larger end of the power cord into an
electrical power outlet.
NOTE: Beforecontinuing, the “Power” and “Internet” lights on the front of the
Vonage Device should both turn on. Wait until the “Power” light stops blinking
and both “Power” and “Phone 1” lights are solid. The “Phone 2” light will be
solid if you have a second Vonage line. Otherwise, it will not light. The “Internet”
light will flicker whenever there is communication activity.
8. On your computer, open a web browser and check your
Internet connection by visiting any website.
NOTE: After turning on your computer, the Ethernet light on the Vonage Device
will also flicker whenever there is communication activity.
