I did find out that my cable modem is manageable.  For those of you that
have a Motorola Surfboard cable modem, you can use the community string of
public and the IP of 192.168.100.1 which is for the modem.  Thanks for the
help

have a cable modem now.  Can i use mrtg to monitor my traffic with that?
also i have a linux box as my firewall.  For thos that have used linux 7.0,
how do you edit the snmp.conf file, so that you can allow mrtg to make a
graph.  any help will be appreciated
