setting up a usb modem

TSC_Busami · 09-22-2002

is there a way to set up a usb modem to go through a router so other units could be wireless.

the only interface is USB and am trying to set up a wireless network

Umm not really you need a computer to give that poor USB modem some CPU power to run the dang thing.

Attach it to a computer and let the computer route the traffic. Put an ethernet card in the computer, attach it to the access point, and use NAT. In Windows, Internet Connection Sharing will do the trick.
