I suppose i should buy an ethernet cable, anyone know what cable i need? I've never used ethernet before. I have the following set up:
†¢ nVIDIA® nForce3 NV Gigabit LAN controller
- Integrated Fast Ethernet MAC and PHY in one chip.
- Supports 10Mb/s, 100Mb/s and 1000Mb/s auto-negotiation operation.
- Compliant with PCI v2.2.
- Supports ACPI Power Management.

you'll need a ethernet patch cable (as opposed to cross-ver) with an rj45 connector (don't worry they only come with one connector, so you won't get the wrong one). Then plug one end into the modem, the other into the pc (a light should come on next to the port in the back of the pc). You may have to set your net settings to automatically detect settings for it to work, or it might just work right off the bat.
Good luck.
