Motorola SURFboard eXtreme Cable Modem SB6121

I was able to get my new Motoroloa SB6121 cable modem I bought up and running when connected directly to a computer, but I was having no luck getting it to connect to my Linksys hub. I used my alternate wireless internet connection and on the motorola site it referred to the fact that a cross over cable was needed to go between the cable modem and the hub. Fortunately I had one on hand and after resetting the modem, then plugging in the cross over cable, and THEN turning on the router, it all worked. Phew!
