I have re checked my the connections. I have a cable modem connected to the settop box which is in the lounge. The Actiontec (model GT701-WRU) is in connected to the modem by a cable in another room using the Cable/DSL port. My pc is linked to the actiontec router by usb. The actiontec router also has a ethernet connection which I cannot use because my pc does not have a ethernet port. The whole setup works OK under Win98 with my son able to use his AppleMac wirelessly. The problem is I cannot see my broadband connection when I boot my pc from the Madriva One CD.
