[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1252736, member: 56379"] **Fair warning**...you're opening a can of worms you may not want to open!;) Computer networking & network security can be a very complex & frustrating topic for many a user. I would suggest deciding what you want your networking hardware to do (cable modem and Time Capsule)...and then we can try to help you set it up to work that way. My humble suggestion would be...turn off the wireless networking features of your cable modem...and use the wireless networking capabilities of the Apple Time Capsule. The Time Capsule already has a dual-band router built-in...and that's more than plenty for almost all home networks. Of course if you want to learn more about the details of computer networking & wireless network security...go for it...but you've been warned in case you start getting headaches, your eyes get blurry, and your hair starts falling out!;) - Nick [/QUOTE]
