    Blueyonder cable modem-> dlink504 router?

    I used to have freeserve 512k ADSL and now upgrading to by 2mb cable.

    How to I set the 504 router to use the cable modems connection,i nstead of its own? (ADSL line unconnected...)

    I thinkit would be easyer if Icould set each pc's gateway to the modems IP, but I dont know how to find it out... but I do have the mac address of the modem.. if that helps?

    You need a router without an ADSL modem built into it.
