804 ISDL Router

From prior discussions. . .

I believe the 804 has 4 additional connections in addition to the main ethernet port.

Here is our senario. We hooked up our new cable service to a cable modem. From the cable modem, can we run a line to the 804 router so that we can allow 3 other computers to access the internet? Or is this router only able to interpret DSL signals. Also, if this senario does work, will I lose speed due to the fact that this is a DSL router?

I think you can run the cable modem line into the main ethernet port. And then rest 4 ethernet ports can connect 4PCs. The 804 can be configed to doing PAT for the 4 PCs.

This is the way how 804 supposed to be used. It will not affect your DSL router's connectivity.
