Is USB enabled in BIOS? What are you trying to plug into the USB port?
Try hot-plugging a flash-drive or memory-card reader (with card), wait a few moments to check if a window pops up asking you what to do....
More details needed before anyone can give a helpful reply.

Maybe misunderstood you in my previous reply.
First I thought you meant that you had a USB cable. Silly!
Now it looks to me like you have cable-internet.

usb is usually a hotplug item is your cable modem supports usb it should be no problem but remember using the usb port on your model will disable the ethernet connections on the modem. this happens frequently with dsl also
