[TriLUG] Own your own cable modem?

I use my own Motorola modem. You get a $5/month break (or rather you don't
have to rent a modem from them for $5). It is a 20 minute phone call to set
up the modem. Then you have to take the rented one to a service center.

Some things to consider: at some point TWC will have DOCSIS 3 support and
your modem may not support it. However, AFAIK that's not happening soon.
