Unpacking the M10i Router
The router is shipped in a cardboard carton, held in place with foam packing material. The crate also contains an accessory box, the front-mounting shelf, and the M10i Internet Router Installation Quick Start.
![]() | Note: The router is maximally protected inside the shipping carton. Do not unpack it until you are ready to begin installation. |
To unpack the router, perform these steps:
- Move the shipping carton to a staging area as close to the installation site as possible.
- Position the carton so that the arrows are pointing up.
- Using a utility knife, cut through the sealing tape on the top seam of the carton. Open the top flaps of the carton.
- Remove the accessory box and packing material from the top of the router.
- Open the accessory box and verify the contents against the parts inventory on the label attached to the box.
- Remove the router from the shipping carton.
- Verify the chassis components received against the packing list included with the router. A generic parts inventory appears in Verifying the M10i Router Parts Received.
- Save the shipping carton, packing materials, and pallet in case you later need to move or ship the router.
