Help text

This is a driver for the General Instrument (also known as NextLevel) SURFboard 1000 internal cable modem. This is an ISA card which is used by a number of cable TV companies to provide cable modem access. It's a one-way downstream-only cable modem, meaning that your upstream net link is provided by your regular phone modem.

At present this driver only compiles as a module, so say M here if you have this card. The module will be called sb1000. Then read Documentation/networking/device_drivers/cable/sb1000.rst for information on how to use this module, as it needs special ppp scripts for establishing a connection. Further documentation and the necessary scripts can be found at:

If you don't have this card, of course say N.
