I've had this same problem sincee 8.x. I finally had to buy a router, and put that between the cable modem and my PC. I was then able to set my PC up as a static IP, which worked like a charm. Actually, it also worked using dhcp...but for me, no router = no cable modem access. I've never been able to figure out why. > > > -- peace, Rog 010100100110000101101110011001110110010101110010011100110010000001100110011000010110111001110011001000000110010001110010011011110110111101101100001000000110111101101110001000000111010001101000011001010110100101110010001000000111001101101000011011110110010101110011001000010010000000111011001011010010100100000000 56469198
