Lock box on the modems?

I don't think it would hurt my feelings if we didn't have to pay for modems if the cable co puts it out side and just gives me ethernet. That would be kinda cool. But then again, it removes something that I could potentially replace if there is a problem.

In any case, it serves those thief's right if they get the boot. They will make it worse for everybody else that plays fair.

i've had experience with uncapping surfboard cable modems. back when I did it I used whatever programs I could find, and had to emulate tftp server have the cable modem download the hacked file from me. sb2100 worked the best. sounds like this new program makes it easier to ppl to do it. I was able to uncap my upload pretty high, to 5mbps, and my download past 10mbps. cox's speeds have greatly increased since then, so I have no need to risk getting caught for extra speed boost. the main reason I wanted to uncap was because our speeds sucked, back in the 192/1.5 days you could hardly get 50/300. I found that uncapping didn't really solve any problems, since top speed would fluctuate just like normal speeds would. it was still nice to be able to go on at 3am, and blow websites away. the longest I was uncapped was for 30 days, then the cable modem would reset.

Having your services canceled for uncapping - priceless!

well, you don't uncap modem, going over their *UNSPECIFIC* number of DL/UL, you'll get cancelled. What they want is for you to pay and not use the service. That will make them happy ;):(:D
