[arm-allstar] TWC Problem

[Chuck Kelsey]

That would be your best bet - log in to the existing modem/router. If 
you get a second modem, they'll likely charge for a second service, even 
if you purchase the modem, as it will take another IP address.

Keep in mind that this could all change very soon if the Charter/Time 
Warner merger is approved. Charter builds the cost of their modem into 
the monthly fee, so they claim that the modem is "free." You are allowed 
to purchase your own, but you'll receive no price reduction. I was going 
to purchase my own modem to avoid the TWC modem fee, but put that on 
hold because if my hunch is correct, Charter will pull some stunt and 
nix a list of modems that "had" been approved.

Not looking forward to the merger. They rarely have favorable results 
for subscribers. Been through a few and each time things got worse.
