Well, last night when I started this thread I had the modem connected directly to the computer via ethernet cable. This morning after booting
up internet still works. Maybe one of the other cables was faulty.
I don't have a network cable tester so I have no way to test for bad cables.
The manual for the modem says to use a straight through cable for Modem to Comp connections and a crossover one for modem to router connection.
How do I know which is which?
