<0> yeah, he sounds like a nub
<1> well
<1> modem's generally need a router to work with a switch ;)
<0> depends
<0> if you got the IPS it should work
<2> TPS reports?
<0> i used to have a couple ips, and i would plug the cable modem directly into the uplink on the switch
<0> then plug my routers into the switch
<0> this is cheap consumer hw im talking about though
<1> oh right
<1> was wondering
<1> i missed hte start of convo i admit
<3> fili
<4> qomaluf
<5> zuguk
<0> some guy is telling him a "workgroup switch" is different than a "switch"
<0> and you cannot plug a modem into a workgroup switch.
<1> so ask him the difference between a switch v. a router v. a bridge
<1> and watch the confusion
<0> hah
<1> and then
<1> to really confuse him
<0> dont forget hub
<6> he *could* mean one is managed, and one isn't...
<1> ask him what a GSR is
<7> Jaded: technically no
<7> Jaded: it depends on the modem config
<0> Hawson, yeah, but that wouldn't affect your ability to plug a modem into it.
<7> if the modem is allowing more than one CPE to bridge then you can use a switch
<7> most ISPs now only allow one IP to bridge at a time connected to the modem directly
<6> katepls: well, it'd work just as well. :0
<0> bitrot, yeah, but if you had more than one ip, i don't see a problem
<1> hehe going around in circles here ;)
<0> or if your modem did NAT
<2> poop
<0> actually.. i don't think it could do NAT like that, could it?
<0> well, yeah i guess it could.
<0> ok, i'm going home
<1> i really need to continue working on my mp3 collection
<1> but it's so boring
