Setting Up a USB Modem
Warning: Before attaching a USB modem, ensure that the total power drawn by all
connected USB devices does not exceed 2.5W per port (0.5A at 5V). If the total
current consumed by a port exceeds 0.5A, a powered USB hub must be used, to
avoid damage to the gateway.

ports.
For information on locating the USB ports, see Introduction on page 1.
