Hi
my buddys has a cable modem which she connects to the internet with, its got one USB and one ethernet port on the modem.
Ive only seen t he modem through webcam so I couldn't play around, we were NOT able to connect 2 machines one through usb and the other through ethernet.
The cable modem allows a router to be connected.
I have a BT VOYAGER 2100. I would like to connect that into the ethernet port of the cable modem.
Im trying this at home but I've not been able to connect to the internet. I have 2 voyager 2100 so when I connect from the seconds modem it gives me the ip of the first modem sometimes and sometimes the second modem.
Help!
===========================
Hi
Cajalat: Thanks, that clears up so much regarding the cable modem (usb and ethernet cannot be used simultaneously)
My hopes: on my second voyager 2100 I have disabled dhcp and get a great internet connection now (2 voyagers).
Will this work... My friends house who is connected via cable internet. If I plug my voyager into her ethernet port of the cable modem. Will I then be able to use the 4 ethernet ports to access the internet (dhcp is disabled in voyager).
The manual on the cable modem says it can take up to 64 ethernet connection, who will act as the router my voyager or her cable modem?
Thanks
