I'm currently visiting a friend for the next week or so and he has AOL Cable Broadband through Time Warner. The catch is that you have to log into the AOL client in order to establish an internet connection. UGH! I've tried internet sharing through his computer and it doesn't seem to work. Any ideas? |

If your friend had DSL through AOL, it'd be possible. With AOL cable, it's not, unless he has a specific router. See this for AOL DSL without the AOL part, or this, about halfway down for cable. From that page:
| Quote: | What routers will work with AOL for Broadband? Any router that works with your type of broadband (DSL or Cable) should work fine with AOL for Broadband.
Note for AOL Cable users: If you have AOL for Broadband Cable (you ordered cable through AOL) you will need to use one of the custom AOL Compatible Linksys or Actiontec routers available at Broadband Gear - Home Networking |
Hmmm, I just went and looked at the last link above, and I don't see any specific routers for AOL cable. Maybe they don't support it anymore. You could try calling AOL @ 1-888-849-3200 to see what they say. |
