I've never seen one, but I'm assuming it has one USB and one E-net?

If so, you can't use both simultaneously. It's designed so that you can connect one computer to the internet, using either USB or Ethernet, whichever you choose.

Someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think NTL has ever supplied any cable modem equipment that has a built-in router.
