Here is a quick run down on how "it" works....
Cableones CMTS (Cable Modem Termintation Server) takes care of your cable 
modem, unknown to alot of cable modem users...  Your cable modem has an IP on 
it.  The CMTS sees your cable modem boot up / power up.  Your cable modem 
starts a tftp file transport to the CMTS.  Your cable modem recieves all it's 
info.  I.E. what speed you pay for and the MAC address of your cable modem 
and a non-routable IP.  Then you are locked down to a non-routable subnet.  
I.E. the 10.*.*.* address that they hand out.  You go to the registration 
site and this registers the MAC address of your firewall or PC (which ever 
you have on the perimeter of your network).  Here is where they only allow 
you to have one MAC address on your connection.  Once they have your MAC you 
have to reboot your router or PC, or just shutdown the interface and bring it 
backup.  

As far as what your doing....  Hook a hub up to your router and then connect 
the PC's to the hub.
