Help!! I can't access the internet with 2 pcs!!!

launtpc SG

Getting a router wastes money and electricity if you have 2 PCs and 1 of them is most likely on everytime.

Nelstar SG

But it beats having to switch on two PCs for the sake of using 1 pc.

Nelstar SG

The problem is the thread starter keeps talking like an idiot from the first post when questioned.

Laughing

launtpc SG

When you mean "Hot EE processor", I assume that you really mean "hot" as in temperature. Laughing

wonderamazement SG

You mean it's something like the ethernet wire???

newmanmback SG

extreme edition rated as the "hottest" kind in the history. doing the same amount of work but letting out more heat than before..i still feel the C northwood core runs cooler Mr. Green

newmanmback SG

from this question ....*pengz*

pls before we go around in circles again...pls post the specs of your modem or router pls pls...if not giv us the model number and manufacturer name..look behind or under the modem should have some label with model and brand indication Confused

launtpc SG

Yeah, mine is Northwood. Stable, cool, better than Prescott.

Ok...

LAN CABLE = ETHERNET WIRE.

newmanmback SG

The above is the CAT5 cable for the RJ45 ethernet port of a router. The cable's application is not only limited to ethernet connections. LAN, networking and PC connections/ communications via switch hub can also be cabled with this dude.

I heard that the 2.8C Ghz Northwood overclocks well and with the appropriate settings and hardware configurations and cooling the system can up till a 3.6 Ghz stable!

Mr. Green

Nelstar SG

You see what I meant?

User problem, not computer problem.

User is dumb.

Laughing

Nelstar SG

At your own expense, explain straight and crossed cable before idiots scream it is not working..

Again.

Laughing

Nelstar SG

An example of stupidity is by telling model name.

Not model number.

Laughing

wonderamazement SG

SB5100

newmanmback SG

here's the user manual and if you have not read it thorough pls do so.

http://anon.comcastonline2.speedera.net.staging.speedera.net/anon.comcastonline2/support/help/manuals/motorola_sb5100.pdf

more drivers and user manual downloads here

http://www.comcast.com/Support/Corp1/FAQ/FaqDetail_2427.html

ran thru your situation and so summarize:-

motorola SB5100 is a cable modem cum router can allows 2 pcs to be connected to the USB and ethernet port and surf at the same time.
your old PC connected to USB port of modem and u r trying to connect new PC to the ethernet port and use both connection to access the inetrent all at once.

really hope can take a look at your PCs and see what's going on.

I have a telephone modem and can work with 2 connections wonder why yours can't. pls go through the details of the user manual again and look out for all cable types, interference, drivers install, IP config (modem and local machines) etc.

or else best call starhub 24hrs technical support they can work it out on your conenction status right off their computers at their signal traffic centre and offer solutions. if they can't help you, most probably its modem functionality or compatiblility related. is this SB5100 modem bundled with your subscription plan?

i am glad the router i bought on my own works with my ISP and different processor type comp
