    I genuinely can't understand what you've written. Please be more coherent and we might be able to help.

    A good start would be tech support at Charter Cable, since they installed it wrong, and should be responsible. I would actually call them on the phone instead of using email since a phone call requires no punctuation-they will understand better. Then after you get that cable modem going, google commas, periods and semicolons etc. You obviously slept thru English I. LMFAO "groans"

    Don't you save instructions with your products? You should have a manual that came with the router that explains how to install such.

    CALL you tech guy and get it fixed. You're paying for it whether you know it or not.

    Did you also get your router from Charter also? I know it might seem like a strange question, but did you inform the tech that you needed the installation thru the router?
