4. Uppsetningarleiðbeiningar

Follow these steps to set up your ARRIS CM820A Cable Modem:

1. Tengdu koaxial snúru: Connect one end of the coaxial cable to the COAX port on the modem and the other end to a cable wall outlet. Ensure the connection is finger-tight.
2. Tengdu Ethernet snúru: Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the ETHERNET port on the modem and the other end to your computer's Ethernet port or to the WAN/Internet port of your router.
3. Tengdu aflgjafa: Tengdu straumbreytinn við POWER tengið á módeminu og stingdu síðan millistykkinu í rafmagnsinnstungu.
4. Kveikt á: The modem will automatically power on. Observe the front panel LEDs. The Power, DS, US, and Online indicators should eventually become solid green, indicating a successful connection. This process may take several minutes.
5. Virkja þjónustu: Contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to activate your new modem. You will need to provide the MAC address of the modem, which is typically found on a label on the bottom or back of the device.
6. Staðfestu tengingu: Once activated, open a web browser on your connected device and attempt to access a website to confirm internet connectivity.

5. Notkun mótaldsins

• Loftræsting: Ensure the modem is placed in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating. Do not cover ventilation openings.
• Þrif: Clean the modem periodically with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using liquid cleaners or aerosols.
• Power Cycling: Ef þú lendir í vandræðum með tenginguna getur einföld slökkvun og endurræsing (að taka rafmagnsmillistykkið úr sambandi í 10-15 sekúndur og stinga því síðan aftur í samband) oft leyst minniháttar vandamál.
• Kapaltengingar: Athugaðu reglulega hvort allar kapaltengingar (koax, Ethernet, aflgjafi) séu öruggar.

7. Bilanagreining

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your ARRIS CM820A Cable Modem.

7.1 Enginn kraftur

• Einkenni: Power LED er slökkt.
