DSL or Cable modem with proper electrical isolation.

STEP 1
Unplug the power cord from your Cable or DSL modem (the device your ISP provided which provides high-speed
Internet). Make sure that you turn your computer off and that you do NOT plug in your broadband telephone until
instructed to do so.
Helpful Hint: The modem should be powered off for at least 10 minutes. If it is turned off for a shorter period
of time, it may “remember” old information that will prevent it from working properly.
