Dear All,
My Cox Cable internet provider has just notified us that we need to change
our modems to DOCSIS cable modems. The good news is I no longer will have to

my cable fee. That is fine with me however, I want to

Hi Newbie
I use cable modem with @ home cable you need a network card I would opt
for
3 com pci card. You need to get the settings
the cable modem to your NIC, you can probably shoo
him away and boot your
computer and be online !

I'm new to Mandrake myself. I currently have ADSL
running through a linksys router and Mandrake had no
problem detecting my setup. As for connecting straight
into your linux box, I can't foresee any problems but
then again your setup is slightly different than mine.

Sounds Typical! My ISP couldn't even ping my home network, and that really
shocked him. Now I'm going around setting up firewalls for most of his

I can't get Optus@Home running with DrakConf either. The only solution was to

so is in linuxconf, if not
its loaded from /etc/rc.d

b) Download and install the special login software unique to

c) Put in my DNS address for my provider.

Yes works like a charm, on your cd (or on the ftp mirrors) there is a
