Do the two computers "see" each other in Network Neighborhood before attempting to connect the cable modem? 2. Which ports are you using for the computers? Many hubs have some sort of sharing mechanism with the uplink port and one of the other ports so that a 4 or 5 port hub lets you attach 3 devices and uplink to another hub (or use a cable modem). 3. Can you get one computer, the hub, and the cable modem working? Hope these questions help you get on the right track, Ted Barrow
