jhild, the problem is political. Typically each town/city controls who the cable company is for them (always suspected kickbacks, most probably legal). This has led to a gerrymandered patchwork across our nation. Like a tornado, it hits here and skips there. If you want cable modems in your town, you have to put pressure on your cable company (with others). If no satisfaction, take your gang and get the city council to designate whoever is closest (and provides cable modems) to your area as the cable provider. o~~~ O
