lowing should be observed:
• Openings should never be blocked by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or
similar surface.
• Do not stack other equipment on top of the RG2C.

GROUND OR POLARIZATION – This product may be equipped with a polarized alternat-
ing current line plug (a plug having one blade larger than the other). This plug will fit

vicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

INTRODUCTION
Beneath the compact and stylish exterior of the RG2C is a powerful media delivery
system. The RG2C is different from other video boxes that you may have encoun-
tered. Some competitor boxes are designed to deliver one video/audio channel to a
RG2C

10
single TV and/or VCR device. In contrast, the compact RG2C delivers the functionality
of three high-quality digital video boxes in a single package. The RG2C can deliver
separate xDSL video services to up to three TVs at the same time. It also provides a
high-speed xDSL modem for Internet access and telephony capabilities, such as
Caller ID and Message Waiting display.
ABOUT THIS MANUAL
GETTING STARTED on page 15 contains the information you use most frequently and
helps you understand how the RG2C works after your NSP (network service provider)
has connected and programmed its functions. It also describes how to use the RG2C
remote control to access and control the basic features of the RG2C.
ADVANCED USE on page 33 provides more technical information about the RG2C and
gives instructions about how to set up and program your system.
CONFIGURATION EXAMPLES on page 63 illustrates possible component wiring configu-
rations of the RG in your system to aid you if you want to move your equipment or
connect additional equipment such as an entertainment center or a new VCR.
CONNECTING YOUR COMPUTER TO THE INTERNET on page 57 briefly explains connecting
your computer to the Internet. Illustrations show configurations for setting up a LAN
(local area network) in your home.
TROUBLESHOOTING on page 75 provides help for problem resolution.
