hi all, i have a motorola SB5100 SURFboard with online gaming, the problem is
i can only use 1 system at a time (eg. when i switch the modem on by the plug
and start the PC, internet connectivty will be with the PC till i switch the
modem off) confusing i know! but isnt there a way that i can be on the
internet and online gaming the same time! that would make life alot easier,

any ideas on how to do this.

Hi Browny,

Are you trying to use an XBOX or PS2 at the same time as your
PC through the modem? If so, you'll need to setup a network...
visit your local computer shop for a good quality home router, and
be sure to purchase one that includes free 800 technical support.
