(or maybe nonsolid peripheral sides, not blocks)

Expected behaviour: Wires connect to the same sides computers can, using either canAttachToSide or a new IPeripheral method specific to cables.

So you're saying you can't put a modem on non solid peripherals?

Networking cables connect to wired modems only. Modems attach to any solid face. What behaviour were you expecting?

Whoops, I was testing it wrong then. I tried connecting the peripherals directly to the cable.
