ok, thanks... I can give that a try, however the guy who put the modem in specifically said not to use usb as it would confuse the modem... also the connector into the modem is into the ethernet port so would I need a different cable to connect it to the usb port ? (sorry to ask stupid questions but I know nothing about this).... also, the modem is in a different room to the pc.
