Q

If I have a cable modem, can I still use my old 28.8 Kbps or 56 Kbps modem?

A

Yes! Although once you’ve experienced the speed of cable Internet access, you’ll never again want to wait for traditional dial-up services.

Q

I have more than one computer. Do I need more than one SURFboard cable modem?

A

No, not if your computers are connected on a network. The SURFboard cable modem supports current Internet connection sharing
technologies to enable you to connect up to 32 PCs to the Internet using a single cable modem.

Q

Do I need to change my Internet service provider (ISP)?

A

Currently, most Internet service providers do not provide cable Internet access. Contact your cable company for your specific information.

Q

Do I need to subscribe to cable TV to get cable Internet access?

A

No, but you will need to subscribe to cable Internet service. Some systems require that you subscribe to basic service before you can get
Internet access and/or offer a discount when you use your own cable modem. Check with your local cable company for specific information.

Q

What type of technical support is available?

A

For questions about your Internet service, connection, or cable modem, call your cable service provider.

Q

What do I do if my SURFboard cable modem stops working?

A

“Troubleshooting”

on page 35 provides tips to diagnose problems and simple solutions. If you continue to have problems, call your cable

service provider.
