[CS-FSLUG] Re: Cable modem and hub setup in Suse 9

[timbrown at ichristian.com]

Hello Alvin and thanks...although it didn't seem to work. I've got a screen 
print from the windows partition on THIS machine (which still expects a 
direct connection to the Cable modem). Tried every IP number on it (the one 
connected to the hub via router) but that didn't help. I'll keep looking for 
one I missed.

I'm connected to Insightbb.com if I leave the third number out, it brings 
one of their screens up, which might be from the cable modem. If I put the 
third number on the remote machine I get nothing but an error after it tries 
to resolve the host.
