[Coco] OT: No way to connect to internet

[johnadonaldson at comcast.net]

  When you use the othe computer are you hooking th cable between the 
computers?? If so then you have the wrong cable for hooking to a cable
modem. There are two types of ethrnet cables. Kinda like a serial null modem
cable.
