How Do I Select and Place USB Network Devices?
You can use a large variety of USB network devices with your cable modem. These
include desktop computers, laptop computers, devices with USB ports, and USB
adapters.
Contact your service provider or consult the documentation for your USB network
devices for more information on selecting USB network devices.
Where Is the Best Location for My USB Network Devices?
You should work with your service provider to choose the best location for your
USB network devices. Consider these recommendations:
Location of two-way coaxial cable outlets
Distance of the USB network devices from the cable modem
