   No Subject Given

   last time I checked, the output from my cable modem was a standard ethernet cable, not a 300 ohm coaxial cable.

   Re: No Subject Given

   Not to defend the Phantom, but isn't the "input" a coaxial cable? That's what is mentioned in the offered article.

   And no power input, either

   None of the photos show anywhere where a AC power cord can be connected...unless it's from the one side of the console not pictured, which sure doesn't seem logical...so this magical box must somehow not need AC power, or gets its power from some unknown input!

   Do you know what the plug is under the 10/100 lan port? Might that be some kind of proprietary power plug? Maybe the power is provided in an external power adaptor that's then connected through that plug.

   taking a look at it, and...

   I read around and the Cable Modem (300 ohm coaxial cable) port is a cable modem (that's what they say...) built into the console. But you don't have to use it, instead you can use the 10/100 Ethernet port, which is on the left side of the back. Under it seems to have a power port, as MissinLnk said, seems to be something proprietary. Also note the Power button, it's the small...little....little... black, round, button, above the ethernet port.
   
   P.S.: not a big fan of The Phantom, just thought I'd share my noledge with you all
