Where can I find documentation on Panoramic modem?
My Panoramic modem is currently attached to COX COAX for input. I'm using standard WIFI features. Since I'm a computer professional with strong preference for wired Ethernet to desktop computers, I'm using a ETH1 slot on Modem connected to a CISCO switch. This configuration provides reliable constant network performance to my desktops. Can the 2nd Ethernet slot, ETH2, be used concurrently with ETH1? Thanks for your support.

I understand why you'd ask this because the 2nd port on previous units...if not deactivated...were merely switched ports to share at Layer-2 but no Internet. On later units, however, I do believe both ports are active and 1 probably at a higher clock speed.
If the Pano includes a router, I never understood why it doesn't include 4 clearly-marked LAN ports. Some do I guess. Why label these 1-2 ports "ETH"? Ethernet is just the technology to connect computers via cable...any cable. Heck, 10Base2 was Ethernet. Why not label as "WIRE" port?
