I have a cable modem (NTL) currently cabled (ethernet) to my laptop. I want to extend the internet connection to a desktop PC elsewhere in the house. I have a Belkin wireless MODEM / ROUTER. To get both PC's to see the internet, how should I connect the cable modem to the wireless modem router? The cable modem has one ethernet output (and a USB) and the wireless cable modem router has a DSL 'in' port and 4 ethernet ports. HELP

i don't think it will work since your dsl modem//router combo only has 1 rj11 WAN port and 4 rj45 port
