I have had TWC for 3.5 years now, and I have had them replace their
old crappy modem during that period due to frequent connection resets.
 It might also be easier to get them to fix their network issues if
you are using their equipment.

Google shows $80 for the Motorola SURFboard SB6121 incl shipping. So
it would take 16 months to pay it off. Hmm
