Hi Jay! 1. My cable modem is not a router. It is connnected to eth0. It is a model that is supposed to work with only 1 PC as far as I can tell. 2. I have no idea on how to log into my cable modem. With FC1 I had absolutely no problems. I just had configured eth0 to use DHCP. 3. I will try to set the eth0 gateway to 68.187.12.0 and see what happens. Thanks for your help.
