I have a cable connection and I was wondering if it would be possible to connect both my cube and computer to the internet by using the USB wire thing and the ethernet (phone jack type thing?). Like, would it support both or do I have to purchase a splitter and an entirely new modem?

Sorry if this isn't clear, I'm not too educated in this field. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif Appreciate any help!

Thank you.

Hi

I'd think your best bet would be to get a router, plug them both into that .. then plug the router into your cable modem.

add'tl modem - more money/month
add'tl computer on current modem with seperate IP - more money/month

Router - initial setup cost/masked presence from cable company saving you money/month and giving you same DL/UL speed.

That's about all i know about my setup. There's configuring for the router...i think. I just come home and play so I didn't do the 'magic' parts.
I'm sure someone else here can help with that though http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif
