English Installation Instructions
Prepare for installation.
CAUTION: To avoid the risk of electrical shock, make sure your computer and
all peripheral devices are turned off and unplugged. Disconnect all telephone
cables from any existing modems before opening the computer's cover. Touch
an unpainted metal area of your computer's case to ground yourself, which
protects your equipment from electrostatic discharge.
NOTE: USRobotics recommends uninstalling any other modems that are
installed in your system and unplugging all telephone cords connected to these
modems. Refer to your previous modem's documentation for instructions.
Write your new USRobotics modem's serial number in the box below. The serial number is
located on the white bar code sticker on the modem and on the modem's box. If you ever
need to call our Technical Support department, you will need this number and your Model
Number to receive assistance.

Install the Modem.
Step 1: Physically install the modem in your computer.
Turn off your computer and all peripheral
devices. Unplug your computer and remove the
computer's cover. Remove the expansion slot
cover at the back of an empty PCI expansion slot.
PCI slots are usually white in color. The slot cover
is on the back of your computer and covers an
opening on your computer's case. The slot cover
could be held in place with a screw or a clip.
Insert the modem into the PCI slot. You may need
to rock the modem back and forth while pressing
down firmly to properly seat the modem in the
PCI slot.
The modem's metal bracket will cover the open-
ing on the back of the computer. If applicable,
secure the modem with the screw or clip you removed. Replace the computer's cover.
