The software that comes with the modem is the drivers for usb. Good deal.......Ill just buy the motorola since it seems to be the most advanced ...

No it's not the one I use, I have had mine for years. If I bought a new one this would be it, as for software, none needed.



:cool:
I figured I wouldnt "need" the software. I was just curious what the software was for that it comes with. On the site it says it ...

Motorola SB 5100.

Im just curious.....Is that the one you use? Also, what is the software it comes with used for? Are there particular things you can do with your cable modem using the software?

Im getting ready to buy a new cable modem because the one I have now is ancient. Its a Motorola Surfboard 3100. It reboots randomly all the time and is in general a POS. I was looking at the Motorola SB 5100 and the Linksys BEFCMU10 ver.2 EtherFast Cable Modem with USB & Ethernet Connection. Does ...

USR 8022...anyone have one of these? This has to be one of the most confusing wireless, cable/DSL routers Ive ever used. If anyone has one and knows how to set it up for things like opening ports for BF 1942 and maybe getting it a bit more secure please let me know. Ill get more specific if someone ...

Definately stay away from the D-Link DI-604. That thing is notorious for locking up and randomly rebooting. I just bought a US Robotics USR 8022 (I know its Wi-Fi too but the LAN side is sweet) and I love the hell out of it. This thing is rock solid so far with 0 problems and a million features ...

My US Robotics USR8022 wireless router/switch was delivered a day ago. Everything went great with getting it setup to work with my cable ISP and wireless works awesome with my laptop. The questions I have are just how in the hell do you set this thing up to work with appz like gamespy, edonkey ...

I know this will either sound stupid or like amateur hour but I have a question regarding WOL. Is there anyway I can use this feature to remotely power on my computer in one of the other rooms from my main pc whenever I want. I just have a small network at my house with 3 rigs on cable/dsl router ...

I figured that....but is there any benifits of buying one?

Is there any benifits at all to buying a cable modem rather than renting the one from the cable company? Maybe like reliability or maybe some options or something? I know that it would eventually knock out a bit of the monthly cost but surely there has to be some benifits. My current cable modem is ...

No no....I meant dial up....I havent had the pleasure of trying dsl. Ive heard it was best for gamming as well. In my area...its either cable or dial-up....DSL isnt available here. I guess I could say Im lucky to even have cable internets access considering the area. But I still dont think its any ...

Im using a cable/DSL router...Is the D-Link DI-604 cheapie. I dont use a software firewall and I have used spybot search and destroy but no real-time ad-protection. I dont run anything in the background. I did one of those trace route thingies and it appeared that the hop from AT&T Worldnet to my ...

I would go with whatever is the most reliable.....I have cable and I hate it....Its really fast for downloading (1.5mbit here guaranteed) but I have slow upload at 128kbit and the service is appauling....I dont think Ive had a good cable company out of 4 that I have tried in various different places ...

Poo :( Oh well.....I went ahead and wrote my cable company....I had some issues I wanted to ask about anyway....Like not having digital audio outputs on the digital cable boxes so I could use my Dolby Digital/DTS reciever and have real digital sound and not this crappy analog I have now. Ive just ...

Lately Ive been getting high ping times in Battlefield 1942. Im on Mediacom High Speed Internet (cable) and I get in my area a guaranteed 1.5mbit down but my upload sux...its 128kbit up. I dont know what to do to get it better. Ive been getting kicked from games as of late for having high ping ...

Funny....Ive been cursed for saying things like "Dont say its gay just say its not working right". By the way. Im gay sooooo

Does anyone know how to get VPN to work with Win XP Pro and Direcway Sattelite internet service.

Is WinXP Pro....The manual that came with the software kinda sucks and tells you just what I told you. The webcam thingy is supposed to be just opened up in a browser kinda like this....

"mycamera.dynip.com:8080" ...A webpage comes up (Im assuming built in the webcam server software) that asks me ...

I have a "main computer" in my office that connects to my sattelite broadband. All the other computers in my office shares this "main computers" internet connection. The "main computer" also handles DHCP for all the other computers. I have 2 DVR units for security cameras also on my network. These ...

After 2 days Im pretty sure im going to start crying now.........Does anyone atleast know how I can get to where I can seemy "server" on the internet?

Nobody here knows anything about this?

I have a small office network consisting of 3 workstations, 2 DVRs and 1 DHCP server (kinda....am using as a make shift router out of my main computer since the Sattelite broadband connects via USB).

My problem is that I want to use the built in webservers in my DVRs as kind of a remote viewing. My ...
