Re: BYO Compatible modems for Optimum Internet

said by ionizer:

interesting, so i would end up with two modems? What is the setup for that? Do i have my primary coax simply split into two - one goes into the phone modem which then has the telephone line and then the other goes into the internet modem which has the output of a lan cable into my router?

Correct! Primary Line comes in splits to both modems. 1 for OV Only and other for OOL Only!

Go to one of the Optimum Store and get a free one, or if you really want to buy.....Antronix 2-Way as thats what Optimum Store gives out and techs use to install

You will eventually be charged the $4.95 rental fee unless you own your own.
Or if you're talking about a 2nd modem for OV only then there is no charge.

no, just single modem. was surprised it didnt show up on this bill - wonder if its because of promotional period extension or something.

my dad got his bill and had the $5 charge
