Look at the plugs from the bottom. If the wires are exact matches you have a straight through, if they are not and the 1-3 and 2-6 pins are reversed, you have a cross-over (I think that's the right pin numbers). I just wire my cables from memory these days. >Also, I'm just trying to get the cable modem to connect to the WAN port of >the Base Station.

I use them to deter those that are not serious about getting hosted. My 'real' packages start at $7.95/month. TWC and other large companies frankly don't give a d*mn. I spend as much time as it takes to get something going for my clients, even if it means I don't sleep (recently did that for Dan Knight and Lowendmac.net/LEMLists.com). -- Ryan Coleman System Administrator LEMLists.com Get your email account at lemlists.com for $6/year!
