...Can I connect my laptop with cat 5 to it?
My new Comcast cable tv box has an ethernet port in the back of it, and I want to either connect my laptop to that ethernet port in the cable box via a cat 5 cable to get internet, or connect the modem to that port in the cable box so I can have my router in the same place as my a/v closet.
In theory this should work, but it doesn't. Anyone know if it should work and how to do it?
