Most cable modems have both USB connections and ethernet connections. If she has an ethernet card in her machine, she can hook up the modem to the ethernet connection. This requires an ethernet wire to go from the modem to the computer. Ethernet is the preferred connection to cable modems precisely because USB ports are flakey.
