AOL Cable Broadband 1

Valerie9,

As I understand it, you can not share an AOL Broadband connection currently with a Linksys router. You can do it with the router they will sell you, with a hub or you can do it with Internet Connection Sharing. AOL is continuing their proprietary methods with these new products.

Look here for additional information:

Hope that helps.

Valerie9,
1. Call AOL to make sure you have multiple name support enabled.
2. Plug in DSL modem to "Wan" port on Linksys
3. Plug in computers on any port BUT #4.
4. Install AOL software on each machine
5. Make each connection type DSL

It will work, although Linksys plans a firmware upgrade to
the router "in the near future."

Valerie, you really should do a google search on "linksys and AOL", and particular look at the DSLReports AOL forum threads it should find.

Oldman, AOL is completing a purchase of AT&T cable, which has a marketing deal with Linksys. That is probably why the Linksys router is the router that AOL is currently shipping as its own.

Best to all.
