Just call HGC Technical Support the officer said only ONE computer can connect to boardband. He refused to tell me how it works. He said you cannot use a hub or swtich to connect you home network to boardband.
He won't tell whether DHCP server in RC management office will assign more than ONE IP address for each household. He said it is cable method.
But cable already built in the other room's socket. The guy simply connect it for $150.
This method normally won't work. Because each computer must have a IP address in order to connect to internet (WAN). There are two computer in your home LAN and even you connect the cable. Only one can access the internet.. You need a router to connect the WAN port from outside and LAN port in your home network.

yes I agree this method but instead of using connector which will disabled the port in the small room I suggest to use a RJ45 socket and parellel the cable so that we can use internet everywhere. I m not very sure this method is works any comments qualcomm ??
Call HGC Tech Support second time the officer said DHCP server only allow 1 IP address because they will charge us monthly service fee after our "romotional" period end. The official rate is $195 per month per household add second IP address for second computer is $98 third one is $49 fourth one is $25.
Anyone join other boardband services? It looks like the dark side has already destroy our democracy in RC. :em01:

When will "romotional" period end? $195 per month is too expensive. :em20: :em20: I use HGC currently and the monthly fee is just $158.

anyway I will try try and keep you guys post to share my experence.....
HGC confirm the answer is NO. RC boardband configuration is DHCP. The server will assign an random IP for you. No fixed IP address. For DHCP my experience is that you need to wait several seconds to several hours for server to release the IP address assign to your first computer. So that you can use another computer to connect the internet. Fixed IP address will off course let you do it instantly.
