Remember you can ifconfig a single NIC with a secondary IP in when using linux/Solaris. This is kind neat since it allows you to easily run two 'networks' on the same media.

I found this IP on the web somewhere after googling around. The question I have is this, how can I access a network for which I have no route?
IOW, I have 2 nics, one on my internal LAN, and one for connecting to the CM. The 'external' NIC is obviously unconfigured, since it's supposed to be configured using DHCP, which isn't working.
And yes, I've tried manually configuring that NIC to be on the 192.168.100/24 subnet, and that didn't seem to work.
(I'm also *very* disappointed that there's no serial port on these modems, though, ironically, on my "Digital Cable" set-top box there is?! :)
I'm beginning to hate ComCast already, and I haven't even *used* their stuff yet :) (and I thought DSL was the only technology that had install horror-stories :)
Thanks, I'll try the website :)
