    Don,

    Your cable modem must connect only to your router. Then, your computer and the 6400 will plug into Ethernet ports on the router. Most routers only have 4 or so ports, often not nearly enough for a modern ham shack. To expand the available ports, you can buy inexpensive Ethernet switches from Amazon or other sources. They are available in 5, 8, 16 and even more ports. An "un-managed" switch will be fine.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
