Another note to this (besides the bridging issues) is that the bandwidth
is set at the head-end, not at the modem, so taking your 512k cable modem
and adding a second on gets you two modems with a total throughput of
512k. It does fix the 8-device issue, though, at least by adding another 8
to it :-)
