Go Wireless with an old Cable Modem
Hi Folks,
I currently have a Motorola Cable Modem like the one pictured here
formatting link
it only has one ethernet port on the rear. I would like to go wireless for my laptop but keep a physical ethernet port for my desktop. I am a little confused by all the options.
1.Is one option to add a Wireless AP to the existing modem, but the WAP must have an ethernet port.
2.Replace the motorola with a wireless cable modem, but if I did this how do you setup a cable modem? The engineer did it last time and will it have an ethernet port?
Please help I'm confused.
