Can I connect my modem/Router combo to a brand new modem?

[EdwinTovar]

So I just bought a new Modem because I want to upgrade from my modem router combo. However I havent bought the new router yet as I do not have the money yet and was wondering if in the mean time I could connect my new modem to my old modem/router combo so that at least my desktop could take advantage of the new modem through Ethernet. Thank in advance for any Feedback

Probably not. If the modem/router has an ethernet input (WAN port), you could try it. You shouldn't hurt anything.

If you're lucky you can reassign a physical port to WAN.
