Wireless Networking - Cable/Modem combination with NTL

by radagast33 Feb 9, 2007 2:11AM PST

Hi

I am currently connected to the Internet via a cable modem with NTL. I want to set up a wireless network at home and have been given a Wireless Router/Modem combined in the same box.

Can I retain my existing cable connection via the original modem and use just the router part of the combo to set up a wireless network or do I need to buy a standalone wireless router?

Any help much appreciated

You need a stand alone router.
