RoadRunner and multiple computers



This isn't a direct Linux question, but I'm sure of you have the 
expertise with cable Internet service...

RoadRunner offers a 1-computer and 3-computer option (you supply your own 
hub).  Does anyone know how this hardware works?... can I place a router 
in front of the 1-computer cable modem and extend the service?  Or does 
the cable modem keep track of sessions or ethernet MAC addresses to limit 
service?  Or is the real problem getting a fixed IP address to route through?

Thanks,
Chris
