Dear friends!
I need help with connecting my Linksys Wireless Router using the USB port of an SB5101 Modem from Comcast. The Ethernet port of the SB5101 has gone bad, hence using the USB port which works for me but won't connect wireless. Help appreciated!

You can't connect the a router to a modem using USB. Have Comcast replace the modem.
