Motorola SB5100 Multiple Users [motorola sb5100] [connect one]
Q: The manual says I have a USB cable to a computer over an Ethernet cable to another .
I so.
When did I renew the IP address of the Ethernet computer, the USB computer stops working, and vice versa.
Anyway around this? Thanks!
Bill
Re:The SB5100 has a NAT inside but probably not to NAT the USB and Ethernet at the same time. Buy a regular Switch, and you will be able to use computers off the Switch SB5100.
Or Disable the NAT and get a Router. Stand alone Router will provide you with better flexibly.

Network is kind of Funny Plugging Cables into Every Available Jack is not necessarily the way to go.

The manual says I can connect one USB cable to a computer, then an Ethernet cable to another…
I have done so.

I remember hearing somthing about this, but since I don't have one, I don't know how to set it up.I think it has a lite router built in like some DSL modems.
Re:Yeah, just get a 4-port router. It will allow you to share files, printers, and it will put you behind a firewall. All good things
Re:A $10 solution to your problem.

Re:i agree with guy…i don't think this will work…
only way i can see it working is if your isp gives you two ip's and then the modem delegates the rest
Re:Are you sure you read that correctly? I honestly do not believe this will work. Simple solution is using a router.
