Do yourself a huge favor and get a ethernet card if you do not have one already, and connect the modem through ethernet. It is a much more reliable and stable connection. After all, that is what it is made for. Leave USB for keyboards, mice, cameras, scanners, printers, etc.



that would be a NIC card, correct? I was thinkin about going out and buying one today, and installing it, in hopes it would be plug and play on my computer.
