appendix a: identifying your equipment
To install the ooma system, you must be able to identify and locate the following network devices and 
services:  your high-speed Internet connection, your modem, your router, and your phone system.
The Internet Connection
Your high-speed Internet connection is most likely provided by a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL), cable, or a 
fiber-optic connection. Either way, there will be a connection between the wall and your modem. Look for a 
wall plate or cable that looks like one of these:
  Cable modems are connected with the same cable that connects to your cable TV.
  DSL connector cables are similar to the existing cables that connect your phone to the wall. The 
connector looks like a standard phone cable.
  Fiber-optic Internet connections are typically delivered into the home as an Ethernet connection.
The Modem
You can identify your modem by its labeling or connections. First, look for a device that has the word “modem” 
on its product label. If this doesn’t help, you can identify your modem by its connections. Look for a device that 
connects to the wall, either by a DSL cable, a TV cable, or an Ethernet cable, with a single network connection to 
your computer or router.
Sometimes the modem and the router are combined into one device, which is called an integrated router. These 
look like modems, but have more than one network connection, and may have wireless capability. If your modem 
has an antenna or has a Wi-Fi label on it, it’s probably an integrated router.
