Is there such a thing as a USB to Ethernet conversion
cable? I know this sounds weird, but I want to set up a
network to share my high-speed internet connection which
is currently connected via USB from my cable modem to my
primary PC (XP OS). Every router I've seen whether wired
or wireless has only an Ethernet connection for the
internet service.
I have Comcast internet service and I don't know if I
could disconnect the USB cable connection and them
connect from my cable modem which also has an Ethernet
connect jack to a NIC card in my PC. I'm sure I could
configure the XP high speed connection for Ethernet, but
not sure about my Comcast configuration. Also I've heard
that you can't network it your self, but have to contact
Comcast to do it for you.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated
