Can I plug this with a Modem? In other words can I hardwire this puppy to my internet?

Yes. You absolutely can. More than likely, you'll also notice an increase in speed.

If I understand your question to be "Can I use this computer plugged directly to cable or phone (modem) and not use it as a wireless unit, then yes. We have a 23" HP All in One that is hooked up to cable, with modem and router. I am not very good with the terms of all these 'attachments', but as you can see, I can get the job done! 8-)

Yes you can, but this is essentially a router. So you could plug your cable modem directly into this Netgear.

You must have Internet. It can then be attached by wire or used wirelessly.

Should be fine. This is a router not a modem. Routers don't care. Modems do. ;)

Not so sure. You should ask the seller. I bought one and it's working great with my modem.

Yes. But why not connect your router to your modem, and the switch to the router?

Yes, no, and maybe. The modem is an "option", but I have never seen or heard of one that had this option. Mine has a port + connector, but no modem inside. If you have a USB modem, that might work. Right now I connect with the wireless or the wired network.

It must have internet access to a modem via a router or switch. I have mine connected to a switch which is connected to a router which in turn is connected to the modem.

This just emits a wireless signal. The modem is normally what you need to worry about being compatible. Based off that fact, yes it is.

You have to get an ethernet adapter and plug it to the modem on the back of your internet connection.

No, this is a DSL router only. You would need to buy a cable internet router.

Hi Garden. This device will work with DSL and Cable connection but no, it is not a modem router. You still need to hard wire it to the modem for sharing of internet connection.

no. you need an ethernet cable. this is a telephone cable to use in either a telephone or a fax modem (the old kind that no one uses anymore)

I would imagine you could. I connected my modem directly to my xbox with it.

If You Are On The Internet You Have A Modem Connect The Modem To The Router

I own this modem, the only plugins on the back are a ethernet and a usb plugin. I have a magicjack for my phone service and I have to plug it into my router. I believe with most internet based phone services you will have to have a router to hook your phone up, unless you get something like phone service thru Comcast, then their modem has a phone jack built into it.

Yes you can. Just ask your internet provider for the instructions to set it up (don
