Can u just hook up two different computers to two cable outlets? Or do you have to network the comps for them both to have cable internet service?

You need a router.

Stop trying to make me look bad Sibbs! I'm just asking what I'm allowed to do because I dont have a clue and my bitchy roommate won't half the bill with me unless i figure out a way to get her crappy computer that she doesn't even use (she's always on my computer) connected.

That won't work

You need a router or a switch

Buy a $40 router at best buy, and say nothing to cox.

They won't know unless they try really hard to find out.

do it yourself, though, as cox will fuck you (pun intended).

yep... router is all you need 3 hooked up here...

It's not cheating the system... a COX tech told me to do it.

serious · 06-11-2004, 09:02 PM

yes router.. just plug it in and gtg

jimmyf · 06-11-2004, 09:06 PM

just 2 computers you DON't need a router or switch. All you need is both 2 have network cards.

you need a router or switch for more than 2.

Mr Pheer · 06-11-2004, 09:07 PM

all that its connected to one cable, using cox

of course it goes thru 3 switches and 3 cable modems, and each has its own ip... but its still all going to one cable

the wireless linksys on top is for the other computers in the house that arent in this pic

you need a router... and since its a roommate, I suggest a wireless router, unless you're sharing a bedroom

i'm sure you dont want cat5 cable ran allthru the house

jimmyf · 06-11-2004, 09:10 PM
