To make the USB work you actually have to goto the IP address of the modem and configure the USB port appropriately.... Looks like you have been take care of...let us know how the linksys works

I then installed the the software that came with the modem and still could not get a connection to the internet.

I switched everything back to the Ethernet cable so I could get back online.

I'm not sure why the USB won't work, but it sure sounded like a good idea if it did. If I can get it to work, then all I will need to buy is a 25 foot Ethernet cable for the TV and I'll be in business.

Any ideas?

Thanks again
