USB Network Driver for RCA DCM425 Cable Modem

I wanted to use my mini as a home server. In order to do so I had to keep the ethernet jack free to connect to a Gbe switch. Through my searching on the net I found this driver:
http://sustworks.com/site/newsusbethernet.html
Even though my modem was not listed as one of the compatible devices I gave it a shot, and low and behold it worked! I assume it uses the same AX8817x or similar chipset. The downstream bandwidth was effected slightly by using the USB en lieu of the RJ45 connection (7500 kbps vs 9989 kbps). However, I don't notice the difference in performance.
I plan to post my settings for others interested in the process, but for now I hope this helps someone else trying to do the same.
Ipnetrouterx is another offering from this company as well but I find the price a bit too steep ($100) when I can configure my own firewall settings manually.
I thought I would share my experience as I could not find anything in my searchings on the net.
FYI:
Oh, and I tried it on a MacBook with Leopard 10.5.2 as well it work too.

Follow up . . . It appears I did not get off too easy. The driver works for about 20 minutes and then drops off (about 1/2 the time reconnects). I'm not sure if this is a problem with my computer and/or the driver or my Cable Modem itself and the USB connection. I need to test the same connection with a Windows PC and see if it occurs again. Hopefully it is just an issue with my Cable modem and I can swap it with the provider.

  • Can I connect a 4 TB USB drive to the airport extreme and use it as a network drive for Time Machine

    Can I connect a 4 TB USB drive to the airport extreme and use it as a network drive for Time Machine

    Yes, if the drive is formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
    The USB port on the Time Capsule is under powered, so you may need use a powered USB hub with the 4 TB drive...even if it has its own power supply.

  • Using external hard drive on a Time Capsule as a network drive for PCs.

    I own a Macbook Air and am using a 2TB Time Capsule router. I am currently using for automatic backups for my Macbook Air.
    I also own 2 PC laptops for the rest of the family. Would it be possible to use an external hard drive connected to the USB port of the Time Capsule as a network drive for the PCs? I want to share files between the two PCs.
    Thanks

    Yes, you can do that.. although it is not necessarily as straight forward as you might think it should be.
    1. The TC has to be running SMB compatible names. short, no spaces, pure alphanumeric.
    2. The disk must be formatted to file system the TC can read. HFS+ or Fat32.. but the HFS+ is vastly superior.. the actual format is irrelevant from sharing point of view as it is still shared via SMB to the network.
    3. It is slow.. half the speed of the same drive plugged into your computer.. although if the connection is over wireless that is probably irrelevant.
    4. You might need a powered hub to get the drive to work.. Apple underpower the USB.. and even a powered disk still won't work.
    5. There are some issues with the TC getting the USB drive to work.. too many factors to say you will have issues or not.. but be aware this is not as straight forward as it could be. or should be.
    6. If you want to share files.. you can always share them directly.. pc to pc or pc to mac.. there is no necessity to do it via a network store.. You can also use the 2TB internal drive.. create a disk image and you can then store you data in that. Internal drive is much more reliable and faster.

  • I can't access my USB network drive connected to my router.

    I have a G5 that I was running Tiger, and could easily access a usb network drive connected to my router. As soon as I upgraded to Leopard, I sporadically get access, but usually not.
    I just purchased an iMac with Snow Leopard and then upgraded to Lion, but I have never had access to this drive.
    I can't get access with either Mac now, but I have no problem accessing the drive from a PC on the same home network, so I know the drive is connected properly, and is working properly.
    Any thoughts how to access this drive from my Macs?

    Let's say that the name of your drive is Hard Drive
    Check using AirPort Utility to get the IP address of your AirPort Extreme, for example you see that it is 10.0.1.1
    You'll need to know the device name for the AirPort Extreme. This is not the wireless password, it's the device password.
    On the PC, open My Computer
    Click on Tools and select Map Network Drive.
    Select the drive you want, "Z" for example
    On the next line for Folder, type in
    \\10.0.1.1\Hard Drive
    Click Finish
    Type in your user name
    Type in the device password for the AirPort Extreme

  • Apple USB CDC Driver for 10.9?

    Does Apple have an updated USB CDC driver for 10.9? The package for 10.8, AppleUSBCDCDriver-4.1.24.pkg, doesn't seem to function on 10.9.

    You can find the drivers in the following location.
    Disc: Mac OS X Install DVD (The one used for installing Bootcamp)
    Folder: \Boot Camp\Drivers
    Exe: MotorolaSetup.exe
    Modem: Motorola SM56 USB Data Fax Modem
    Also, you may need to change the compatibility to "Windows XP (Service Pack 3)" so it will install properly.
    Hope this will help.

  • How to get source code for WinCE 6.0 USB Camera Driver for ARM4I Processor

    Hi,
    I am implementing USB camera driver for my mini2440 board which has an ARM4I processor. The sample code

    image for mini2440 with the Third party catalog items "MJPEG Decompression Filter" and "USB CameraDriver",
    the linker giver errors. Please advise where to find a working source code for USB (now revision 1.1
    ("full-speed") is supported in my WinCE 6.0 image) camera for my ARM4I processor. The code should

  • CPU is very hot when using Thunderbolt display and mac attached USB hard drive for TimeMachine

    Hello,
    i've bought the new MacBook Pro 15" and a Thunderbolt display. Everything works fine for me due to the latest updates, but i experience an issue which i really don't understand. When i connect an usb hard drive for TimeMachine to my display it works like expected (CPU has a temperature of 64°C), but when i connect it to an usb port of the mac while using my display the CPU temperature goes crazy (spikes about 80°C) and it gets very noisy. Has anyone else experienced this behaviour?
    May this has something to do with the dual graphics adapter and how the system handles the data stream to thunderbold ports and usb devices? Which graphics card is used for the external display, the internal gpu or the adapter from ati? I've googled a lot but haven't found appropriet answers about these questions.

  • Unable to map master page gallery as network drive for migrated sitecollection

    Hi all,
    I am unable to map the masterpage gallery as network drive for design manager for a migrated site.
    This is a windows 2008 server r2 OS. Desktop experience in installed.
    I am able to map the master page gallery as network drive for two other site collections which is not migrated.
    But for the current migrated sitecollection, it throws the familiar error that it is unable to connect.... I already tried unistalling and reinstalling desktop experience.
    Kindly help.

    Hi sanjuv,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you can't map master page gallery in network drive for certain migrated site collection.
    If you can open the master gallery with explorer, it means the master page gallery really exists. I suggest you check if the path is valid in the network drive. You can find the detailed path information with the articles below:
    1.On the site for which you are creating a design, start Design Manager. (For example, on the Settings menu, choose Design Manager.)
    2.In the numbered list, select Upload Design Files.
    3.The Design Manager: Upload Design Files page contains the location of the Master Page Gallery. The location probably ends in /_catalogs/masterpage/. This is the location to which you will map a network drive.
    4.Make a note of the location of the Master Page Gallery, or copy it to the Clipboard.
    Here is a detailed article for your reference:
    Map a network drive to the SharePoint 2013 Master Page Gallery
    If the issue still exists , I suggest you can check the link below to troubleshooting the connection error with Network drive. You can try to install the kb of IE10 below to test if it works.

    1. Put your Windows CD in the drive.
    2. Select Install Windows.
    3. Let install continue.
    4. After the first restart, you will see something about Recovery Console.  Do NOT select this option.  Just let setup continue.
    5. You will soon see a message "searching for existing Windows installation".
    6. Soon after, you will be given the option to REPAIR that installation or make a new installation.
    7. Select REPAIR.
    8. Just keep going.
    That's it.  Hopefully things will be just fine after the repair is done.
