Ok. You need a coaxial splitter from your isp. then you can hook up two modems. They would both be different. and why? I had one for phone and one for 200mbs internet. 

 

Hell, it wouldn't even need to be from is isp, he could just buy a splitter.

I have a single coaxial cable connected to my modem. I would like to know if there is a way of setting up two modems with one coaxial cable? Assuming this is possible, would I get two different ipv6 address or would they be the same. Or would I have two different internal networks. Or would they be the same internal network with the same ipv6 address and they would balance the load between them, doubling my speed. I know its possible to have two modems, that balance the load and you double the speed of your internet, but I don't know how people do it.

 Just because you don't care, doesn't mean other others don't. Don't be a self-centered asshole. -Thank You a PSA from the people who do not say random shit on the internet.

Would they be the same ip address and would I need to pay extra?

If you're paying for two internet plans, one for each modem, then they would have different IPs.

 

As far as I know you would have to pay extra.
