Motorola SB5100 SURFboard USB Cable Modem works
Posted: Fri 06 Jan 2006, 13:53
Motorola SB5100 SURFboard Cable Modem is running fine in Puppy 1.0.7.
I'm using the USB to connect.
Note: I had to install the CDCEther module (located in modules-2.4.29-complete.tar.gz) to get it working.
I placed CDCEther.o in /root and then: insmod /root/CDCEther.o
Run the Ethernet/network Wizard and follow the directions and that's it.
Also added insmod /root/CDCEther.o to /etc/rc.d/rc.local to load the module at boot.
So far it's working fine.
Just for reference: it's running on a 400MHz Intel Celeron, 64 MB RAM, 8 GIG Hard drive with no ethernet card.
