2620 SOHO Configuration

fieldmonkeyfieldmonkey Users Awaiting Email Confirmation Posts: 254 ■■■□□□□□□□
I have this router and wanted to attempt to set by attaching it to my cable modem. I noticed on the back of the unit it only has ports for Console|Auxillary|FastEthernet.

It also has a a modem module for Phone|Line0.

I am assuming I will be needing at least an NM-1E2W to get this configured with a switch?

So if the above assumption is correct, my question would be ....

Will any NM-1E2W do or does it have to be designed for the specific router model, such as for the 2620. I dont' want to just randomly purchase one if it's not going to work on my model.

Thanks--

    Combo NMs which have more than 1 type of interface like the NM-1E2W (1 Ethernet and 2 WIC) don't work in a 2600/2600XM at all. Officially the 2600/2600XM only supports the NM-1E (1 Ethernet), NM-4E (4 Ethernet) and NM-16ESW (16 port Ethernet switch). Unofficially, the 2600/2600XM will work with a NM-1FE-TX (1 Fast Ethernet) from various reports.

    The WIC-1ENET doesn't work in a 2600/2600XM either.
