I am thinking about doing away with dsl for my internet and going with US Cellular and use a wireless usb modem to my computer. I currently also have an I-link 9000+ and a CNX Nano. Would I be able to still use my stb's with the wireless modem connected to my computer? If so could someone tell me how I would go about doing this. Thanks ahead of time.

you are going to have to bridge your USB wireless internet connection to the ethernet port of your computer.
then use a crossover cable and connect into a router.This way the internet will go into the USB Wireless modem,out through the ethernet port into the router.Then connect CNX and ilink into router and you are good to go.

Google serach will help you with your answer.

Also I believe that if you search this site there is a sticky about how to bridge wireless connections.

Found this Thread on the site describing how to bridge wireless connections.

Potentially, you can use any old router that is kicking around, since you are using multiple STBs. Nothing fancy here, and as suggested in the previous post, just search this forum and you will find what you need.
