| Hey main, there are 3 main components that connect a cable modem to a computer: a coaxial cable, a Category 5 twisted pair line, and a NIC card. Not like regular modem. The coaxial cable line connected to the cable modem. The Category 5 twisted pair line connects the pc to the cable modem. The NIC enables the cable modem to "talk" to the computer. |

| I think you will not. Your service includes an Internet Service Provider as part of the cable modem service package. Your service package also includes an e-mail account(s), news, www access and web space. |

| I have some knowledge about cable modem. I have recently installed in my pc. So, for that you will need a minimum of a Windows 95 operating system, 125 megabytes of hard disk space, and 16 megabytes of RAM. A processor of 133mhz or higher is also recommended. |

| Hey buddy, the number of e-mail accounts included in your service package will vary by market. So, you can check it from your service provider. |

| Unfortunately, hosting servers is not allowed with our residential cable modem service. This includes, but is not limited to, web servers, ftp servers, and mail servers. If you want to run a server, contact your local cable provider for information about obtaining a commercial subscription. |

| We can definitely use it while using a cable modem. Filtering software that is running locally on your own system will filter out undesired content. |
