Getting this to browse the internet while I am gaming with my gaming PC, can this be connected to the internet via ethernet and a high speed modem?

You will have no problem accessing the internet with this computer. I have been VERY pleased with every rebuilt or refurbished desktop computer purchased from Amazon sellers. In fact, one of the computers needed around 49 Microsoft updates and it took no time at all to accomplish this task. -Mark-

I would recommend faster internet than DSL for online gaming, like cable internet. If your stuck with DSL like I am tho, this modem does work great. Its a much more stable connection than what AT&T; sold me and works really good with my Asus RT-AC68U.

@ T. Vanlienden... Yes, this is exactly what I use mine for. One must keep in mind however, that this is a USB 2 and therefor the speeds are not going to be like a pure ethernet connection. As long as you're OK with the slower speed, this should work just fine for you. Hope this helps...

You could hook it up to a wireless adapter as well and have it talk to your wireless router. The Samsung is not picky as to what hangs off the ethernet port as long as it can obtain an IP address and get on the internet.

NO. I bought a USB Linksys DUAL BAND AE2500 Then it kept 'cutting out' SO I hooked up to the EtherNet port in the back. Works better (faster, Obviously).

There is an Ethernet connection socket on the back. It isn't wireless (it's a desktop unit). Having said that, I bought/installed a USB wireless network adapter on the 2 units bought due to difficulties in running cable.

This MODEM acts as a network wireless router. As the others have said you MUST do the initial setup by connecting to your computer via an Ethernet cable. After that you can connect wirelessly. I decided to keep my Ethernet connection as it is faster and more reliable. There are three extra Ethernet ports to connect other computers or other Ethernet devices devices like my Blue Ray player streaming Net Flix and other web content.

Yes - the wired connections are Gigabit Ethernet speed. The wireless is up to 300Mbps.

Hi, Jeremy. Since this is a dedicated modem, you cannot finish its setup without a computer with an ethernet jack

You can only plug-in 3 devices, one ethernet you use to connect to your internet. I used it to plug in my game systems. Three is actually not enough in my case.

I am not 100% positive, but I think not, if so, like the previous responder says, probably wouldn't suggest getting this one for that usage. its more for game playing and internet perusing.

For clarification, this hardware is not an internet modem that you would to connect a PC desktop or laptop to the internet. This hardware is a data Fax (facsimile) modem. This piece of hardware is installed on PC and is used to send facsimile over phone line to a receiver facsimile machine. (I hope this explanation helps to clarify the confusing terminology.)

Sorry, don't know about that stuff but I do know that this router will prioritize the connection to my xbox and you can monitor every device on your network from your PC. No more lag on gaming. No problems with this router.

I'm sorry, but I dont use the ethernet; I use it wireless. I hope you find the answer your looking for. Regards.

NO! The ethernet router would need to be configured to accept a DSL signal; that isn'
