Cable Modems, Introduction

  
 
 

So you want to know about cable modems.  Be sure to read the security issues sections also, in Home Net Security and follow some of the links in Security Info Sources.

Read the basics of cable modems in about Cable Modems. I also have made several presentations about cable modems at the Cajun Clickers Computer Club. Here's the handout from one of them.

In the pages on Buying a Cable Modem, I describe the modem I bought, contacting the cable ISP to activate the new cable modem, the performance increase and my recommendations.

If you'd like to know what others think about cable modems, use your newsreader to read the Internet/USENET newsgroup comp.dcom.modems.cable and, if you're already on a cable ISP's system, look for local newsgroups, such as cox.internet.community.batonrouge and cox.internet.discussion.email .
