No, without the router, with the modem alone. When the ready light was staying on and not blinking.
Sorry, that's what I meant. So you were able to connect to the internet using the _modem_, right? That is, your setup looked like this, right?:
{net}--{modem}--{computer}And the modem ready light was on steady (not flashing or blinking), right? And from the computer, you were able to ping the IP addresses for the following:
- the computer itself (ping -c 4 127.0.0.1)
- the modem (ping -c 4 ??????)
- the default route (ping -c 4 ??????)
- the dns servers (ping -c 4 ??????)
- an outside IP address, (ping -c 4 216.162.125.230)
- an outside hostname (ping -c 4 cwelug.org)
Yes, I mean the ready light on the modem. Please let us know how it works out with the new modem. I don't know if the problem is the cable service itself or the modem either.
Will do. Looking at modems right now:

I've had good luck with SMC products in the past. Anyone have recommendations on a cable modem and a recommendation for a vendor that supplies them?
