I want to connect old cable to my new internet card

[WojtasRed]

I`ve got an old cable:

And I want to connect it to my mobo GA-MA790X-DS4 with Realtek 8111B (10/100/1000 Mbit)

How can I do this? Is there any adapter or something?

That's coax, taking it it's you're TV cable, should go to your modem, not to you PC. If it's an actual coax network cable it just puzzles me why you still have that. The picture isn't exactly clear on that. Either way, coax+PC usually is a nono. Unless it's for TV tuners, which is a completely different story.

Still questionable quality How was it connected on your old machine? There has to be some modem somewhere.

There`s no modem. Cable is connected directly to card. It`s coax, I guess. How can I connect with Ethernet?

Assuming you're talking about some sort of cable internet service, cable uses different protocols than your standard ethernet cable and can not simply be "adapted" to ethernet. This is why you need a modem. The modem "translates" the cable network protocol to the ethernet protocol.

If you're talking about cable TV, you will need a TV Tuner, which your motherboard does not have. You can buy these online or at a retail store.

What would probably help is if you could take a picture of the back of your old computer for us. Tell us what this cable is for and how it worked in the past (assuming this is from an older computer).

And what kind of card might that be? A modem perhaps?

He is correct!

However, if you wish to use RG-59 or RG-6 , use can use this type of device to do it, but I would just pull some cat-6 or multi cable. Unless circumstances prohibit that.

Expensive solution

This is for your network,not connection to internet...

 

[WojtasRed]

Yeah it`s coaxial network cable...
I must buy expensice PLANET VC-202 Converter VDSL2 1x BNC, 1x RJ-45

or install new internet connection (cable and receiver). Any suggestions?
I want to use radio internet connection. Is this possible to connect it to Realtek 8111B (10/100/1000 Mbit)?

 

[95Viper]

Are speaking of wireless, as in cellular?

The answer is yes...still expensive.

Wi-Fi...yes... Read more info here:http://www.evdoinfo.com/content/view/37/61/

I don't know where you are, so I would not have a clue as to what services are available.

And, I am still unclear as to whether, you are looking for your own network or a outside connection.

And, the picture is not clear enough, but that doesn't look like a BNC connector.

Apart from the connector being different here the signal on the cable is most likely different. I highly doubt you somehow have been using such an ancient standard. I'm guessing you're using some docsis thing.

The device in this picture will not work. The type of coaxial connection looks like is meant for a 10base-T or similar BNC connection. The wire you are holding up in your first post is not a BNC cable.

If you have subscribed to a cable internet service, you need a compatible cable modem. There is no way around this. You will need to call your Internet Service Provider and ask them for a modem.

Please explain what you are trying to do. If this cable was previously attached to a different computer, could you tell us what motherboard and/or provide a picture of where it connected?

 

[mrhuggles]

yeah cable modem for sure.

Must use Wi-fi internet is my guess. Looks like a wi-fi plug to me.

That would make sense. Some ASUS boards have onboard Wi-Fi.

I still think we really, really need to know what that cable is attached to.

Look at his fingers, seems too thick for wifi. Antenna cables mostly look the same, just different sizes. I'm pretty sure it's just some PCI cable modem or something. If not, he should just call his ISP and ask them what to get instead of having us puzzle.

 

[DaMulta]

U give up to easy!!!

LOL

I really think that is a wi fi cable. I think I have a think one just like it somewhere.

Same connector, bigger though. ie antenna cable. Still, his ISP can tell him right away. Once we know what he needs we can help him. Far more efficient that way.

I have to side with Dan on this one. It looks like your standard coaxial cable that one would normally receive cable internet through.

See wi-Fi

has no pin inside cable either

I know, like I don't have those things here

I still believe his is larger.

 

[DaMulta]
