I am thinking of getting a broadband cable connection because this is the only broadband connection available at my place. Just want to know from others' experience how easy it is to set this up in Fedora? I checked the internet configuration wizard tool, but couldn't see any option for cable connection i.e. options available are CIPE (VPN) connection, Ethernet connection, ISDN connection, Modem connection, Token Ring connection, Wireless connection and xDSL connection. Are there any issues with cable modem compatibility? I am living in Australia and cable internet provider will be Telstra. I would really appreciate any help provided. TIA
My cable modem just hooks into the NIC in my computer via an ordinary ethernet cable.
Same here. It gets its IP adress via DHCP from the ISP. The computer neither knows nor cares that it's communicating via a cable modem; it's just using eth0.
