If it is a different outlet but the same subscribed phone line you should have no problems. If you plan on taking your modem to another location (different phone number) this will not work.

There are a number of possible causes. First, make sure that the telephone is securely plugged into the jack, and that both ends of the telephone wire from the cable modem to the telephone jack are plugged in properly. Then make sure that the coaxial cable is securely plugged into the cable modem and that the cable modem is plugged in and receiving power. The next step is to unplug the electrical power from the cable modem for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in. If none of those steps resolves the problem, then you will have to call Comcast from another phone for further instructions.

Usually on the back of the router there is one port marked internet or uplink that you'll need to connect to the modem you get.

If you want to connect a laptop and a PS3 to the Internet a Linksys Router with multiple LAN connections must be used. The setup is then: INTERNET | CABLE/DSL Modem | Linksys router | | LAPTOP PS3
