TV outlet high-speed internet connection

Luie · 03-16-02, 05:10 PM

Can you share internet access to 3 computers from a TV outlet (I think it's called cable)? I've joined COX and they use the TV outlet and not the telephone outlet.

I've never seen this and it is nothing like the telephone outlet IDSL in Hong Kong. I have no clue how to share it to the three of my PCs.

Please help. What sort of switch or hubs do I need?

I would be nice if you can post some site that tells me a bit about it. It would save some effort of typing the whole tutorial to me.

Thanks in advance.

The easiest way to do it, is to get a router, plug the cable into that, then the computers into the router, and set it up that way.

Ok, thanks.
I've found alot of information about it on in the libruary.
Yes, the libruary. I've found last month's PC Magazine. It's all about routers and broadband.
