Solve : Cable modem networking?

Answer»

I have a cable modem and want to be able to hook two computers up to it at the same time. The PROBLEM I am having is I cant find a router that uses the USB connections instead of the RJ45 connections. My computer does not have the RJ45 PLUG and that is why I am hooked up to it thru the USB. Can I just use a USB hub or is there a router that has the USB connections instead of the RJ45 connections?USB doesnt work very well in REPLACEMENT of an actual Ethernet cable. Its very difficult to find cable modem routers or routers alone that support USB anymore.

You might consider buying a regular basic Network Interface Card (NIC)

You could get a USB one:

(Theres three on there when I searched for it)
You should notice that these are overly expensive for something that PROVABLY wont work incredibly well. USB is no replacement for an actual adapter.

Actual adapters:
