The DKT 110 doesn't have a cable port so you can't just replace the SA2100. &nbsp;You can however plug the Dlink into the 2100 Cable Modem to allow several computers to share your Internet connection. <br />
<br />
But then you would have two devices where you only need one. &nbsp;Instead, I would call your Internet Service Provider and ask them exactly which devices would be best to replace the SA2100 and also offer wireless networking. &nbsp;I think it is best to use the hardware they recommend and are familiar with in case there are any problems.<br />

Hi people,<br />
<br />
My son is in college in a shared flat, they have cable internet through a scientific atlantic 2100 cable modem.<br />
<br />
This unit seems to only allow one computer to connect (no dhcp).<br />
<br />
If he buys another cable router (ie d-link dkt110) does he just replace the SA2100 with the d-link , will the d-link auto connect to the cable network ?? &nbsp;I have not worked with cable as we have ADSL at home so am a bit grey on the details for cable !!<br />
<br />
many thanks<br />
<br />

How to allow multiple computers ??

The term broadband commonly refers to high-speed Internet access that is always on and faster than the traditional dial-up access. Broadband includes several high-speed transmission technologies such as digital subscriber line (DSL), cable, fiber optics, wireless (for which there is a separate topic), satellite and broadband over powerlines (BPL).
