Re: wireless access point+cable modem
The problem is that the modem sees the ME102 as the connected device. The modem treats that as the single computer that it expects to speak to. The modem can only speak to a single device, i.e. the directly connected computer - or a router that is first in line instead of that direct connected computer.
The access point has no inteligent brain inside that allows it to issue IP addresses, DHCP and other forwarding information to the computers further down the network, whilst appearing to the modem as being only one machine. A router has that facility.
