I have searched on here but can't find the exact answer i am looking for. I have a cisco 1760 router and a 2950 switch. The router has an ethernet wic card added so i have two ethernet connections available. I would like to connect the cable modem gatway to the router through one of the ethernet connections on the router and then to the switch. I cannot seem to get this setup to work. There are several different ways i have seen posted to accomlish this. dhcp, no dhcp, creating a seperate network, and giving the e0/0 an ip address within the range of the cable gateways network addresses. None of this has worked. Can anybody post the commands that need to be entered on the router to make this possible?

sorry should have been more specific to begin with. the router does not get an ip address assigned to it. The computers Lan connection says it can see the network but cannot reach the dns server.
