    I have a Creative Broadband Blaster DSL router, I got it with my UTV Clicksilver. Its version 8133U. It has a USB port and an ethernet port. Can I plug one pc in with the USB port and one into the Ethernet port and use the broadband at the same time?

    Its generally a bad idea to use your modem over usb, should be ran from the ethernet port.
    You'll need a little switch or a wireless router to have multiple users on your bb modem, if you use a hub you'll have traffic collisions...

    Even though its a bad idea, does it work with the modem?
