yeah but think about it, that means the same internet is going through all the outlets, so if you had two modems on different outlets, they would get data they never sent and stuff like that because they dont know which is which, so it would'nt work.
Just attach a router or switch to your cable modem and then you will be able to plug up to four pcs into that router/switch.
