Chelseagirl Member	# Posted: 31 Mar 2008 12:37 My Acer modem has Ethernet connection to internet through AT&T. We have another new computer/model in adjoining room and need to set up a router and then a plug-in card on the new modem. Is this correct? We're technically challenged.

I don't know what your referring to. To share a Cable Modem Internet connection you would generally use a Router which distributes the bandwidth to the computers connected to it. A Cable Modem wouldn't have a way to "plug-in a card". Perhaps this diagram will help. Networking Visiual
