Nah. screw the people at @home, and at cablevision.
if you look hard enough on CCO, youll find something.
for instance, i have a cable modem and had the same problem. but did you know that in
IOS release 12.1.2(T) and ONLY that version, ther is an interface command
ip address dhcp
?
i had the same problem as you.
take a look with this ios tho
interface FastEthernet2/0
ip address dhcp
ip nat outside
duplex auto
speed auto
