Cable modem, rental vs owned

Published on January 31, 2008 By CharlesCS In Personal Computing

I was wondering if anyone here could tell me what is the best option when ordering cable Internet for you home. Is there a difference owning the cable modem as oppose to renting the model the Internet provider provides for an extra fee on the bill? Just wondering.

Since the subject came up what about one that includes telephone........The one I have (rented) has to be recycled damn near every time the power burps. Anyone know of a good replacement that will be compatible with my Brighthouse telephone service?
