    Can a cable modem, connected to a computer through a direct USB connection, somehow connect to a router and give internet to everything else?

    My setup:

    Wall-Cable Splitter-One to TV one to cable modem - USB from cable box to computer.

    Nope.

    USB is problematic for such purpose the best cost effective solution is to buy an External Ethernet Modem.

    :D

    Dern. Well, after tinkering with it late into the night I got the ethernet side wrorking. I think that my cable modem has sensitivity issues. Just afraid to succeed and be all it can be. God help me if the power goes out.
