To answer your question: Since I'm a Time-Warner cable TV customer, my cable modem is $44.95/mo. If I weren't a cable TV customer, I believe it would be $49.95/mo. It is more than a regular phone modem/ISP charges (I was paying $19/mo for that), but the access times are up to 100x as fast. Heavy traffic can still slow things down, however. The biggest difference is in accessing video sites or downloading software. Downloads that used to take 30-40 min. or more with a phone modem now take just a minute or two. Videos download in seconds. I feel it's well worth the money. Betty
