MMK - Cable Modem - A cable modem is available through your Cable TV company. Not all cable tv companies offer cable modems yet... if you can believe it, it appears as if NH is among the first to offer cable modems. I know that my cable company is also going to be getting into offering telephone service in the not too distant future. Eventually, I believe you will only need a Cable company for phones, modems and television. I don't know how close we are to that nationwide, but give your cable company a call. I was paying $18.95 per month for internet access and paying about $20 a month for a dedicated line. My cable modem costs about $40 per month (slightly higher if you do not also order cable TV). The only drawback is adding a second user. At least my cable company charges an additional $40 for each subsequent user. This differs from most ISPs who charge something like an additional $2-$5 for an additional mailbox. In my opinion a cable modem is the way to go if at all possible. The cable company will come in and hook everything up for you. One thing to beware of though... I understand that in NJ (where I am originally from) you can download over the cable line, but you upload over the telephone line. I don't know if this is true (it seems crazy) but you want to check. Good luck! GQ
