Answer | The SB8200 cable modem is equipped with 2 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) ports on the back panel.  For a typical setup with one computer, connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the computer and to the Ethernet port 1 on the back of the SB8200 cable modem for Internet access.  When there are multiple client devices in the home network, ARRIS recommends connecting the client devices to a Wi-Fi router to provide Internet access.Â
It is possible to connect two devices to the SB8200 cable modem. Â However, the cable provider must provide Internet IP Address to each device for Internet access. Â If both devices cannot connect to the Internet, contact the cable provider to see if they provide additional Internet IP addresses; not all cable providers will allow a 2nd address for residential services. |
