Hi Jay!
1. My cable modem is not a router. It is connnected
to eth0. It is a model that is supposed to work with
only 1 PC as far as I can tell.
2. I have no idea on how to log into my cable modem.
With FC1 I had absolutely no problems. I just had
configured eth0 to use DHCP.
3. I will try to set the eth0 gateway to 68.187.12.0
and see what happens.
Thanks for your help.
Enrico
