Thanks Dan. I've installed my own internet satellite and put the modem/router in the bedroom entertainment area. Testing things I've run a Ethernet cable from the router to the connection labed bedroom and it works. Then to the basement one and it works. I then tested the living room one and it doesn't work. Maybe I'll try to run a Ethernet cable from the router to the 'hook up' and another cable to the living room to see if that works. The living room Ethernet port is the only one I care about. Your probably wondering why?, just use wireless. My wife gets headaches from wireless and I have the wireless feature turned off in the router. We TRY to avoid it but its becoming almost impossible to stay away from. Cell phones too, I turn it on in another room and she will ask me to turn it off!! If I can't get the living room port to work I'll run a separate line to the living room. I have to run a line from the invertor to run the freezer I'm putting in anyway, I'll run them together.
