I have my PC hooked up to a router, for the firewall  :D  , and it seems to work like, like......

well I just plug in Ethernet cord and start surfing

as long as your network card is supported (Linux Compatible) it should be something similar.

you have  ADSL/DSL, or Cable right???

Windows_SuX_@$$:
Yea I got cable, the ethernet card should be suppord by linux its a basic PCI one it should easyly be supported.  So you think it will work if I just connect my cable modem to it ?
