Before connecting your new Home Phone modem
If you are replacing an existing modem that has a security sleeve on the coaxial cable, please follow these
instructions about using the unlocking tool in order to disconnect the coaxial cable from the modem. If your
modem allows you to unscrew the coaxial cable by hand, you do not need to use the unlocking tool.
For homes that have an alarm system connected via phone or Internet connection, we recommend that you
notify the alarm company prior to disconnecting your modem in order to avoid any false alarms.

Locate a coaxial wall outlet in your home. If you are using Cogeco’s
Wi-Fi services, we suggest using an outlet that is centralized in your
home for the best possible Wi-Fi coverage. Connect the coaxial
cable to the wall outlet.
Connect the coaxial cable provided to the cable connector at the
rear of the modem. Firmly tighten the cables by hand to avoid
damaging the connectors.
Connect the power cord to the modem and to an active electrical
outlet. This will start the synchronization process and may take up
to 20 minutes for the modem to come online.
If the US or DS lights are still blinking after 20 minutes, try moving
your modem to another coaxial outlet in the home (if available) and
repeat the above process. For further support, see the
troubleshooting section at the end of this guide.

RETURNING YOUR OLD MODEM TO COGECO
If your modem has been replaced, we ask that you return it to Cogeco to be recycled. Place your old
modem, unlocking tool and the power cable in a box. Place the provided Canada Post return shipping
label on the outside of the box and return it via your nearest Canada Post location within 5 business
days after receiving your new modem, in order to avoid potential unreturned equipment charges. You
may use the cardboard box that you received your replacement modem in to return the equipment,
or provide your own cardboard box.
