So you aren't having modulator-demodulator issues, you are having bridge issues.

A bridge converts from one physical media to another - in your case, coax to ethernet (probably CAT5)

A router connects 2 or more different networks and provides a path between them.

A true modem is a modulator-demodulator that converts a digital signal to an analog signal and back.
