Hey everyone, i have 2 computers now, one which had the network installed a long time ago, and a new computer which i want to install the same network.. When i plug in the ethernet wire into the new computer, i cannot connect to the network, because i need my ISP information Username and PW


i know my isp is Cablevision-Optimum Online. however i forgot my username and password. I tried loggin into the www.optimum.net website, however their account's page site is down until July 6th :(.

how would i go about finding out my correct isp name, username and pw? Where would i have to go on my old computer in order to find this info? please help

Thanks alot

Internet properties, connections, if the PW was saved you can use a password tool to see the password, if not you'll need to phone the service provider. BTW the account page is working now so it should not be a problem to get the info
filewise well keep searching I aint telling ya but to learn hacking you can use hackthissite and learn

No, the problem is that the cable modem needs to be power cycled when switching between computers. Get a router.

In control panel, internet options nettools is good to use for this but there are other PW tools too. Well the site works for me I think grumpy is right if you are not able to get the page up

Cable Internet service does not require a Username & Password.
