What is the status of OOL modem rental fees? There was an article about Cablevision modem fees posted on the main news a few weeks ago that disappeared after an hour or two. I have heard no further word and my bill shows no modem fee (which it should not as I will explain). I bought my modem back in 2001 from The Wiz. It was an SB4100 but I was requested to swap it several years ago for an SB5100 which I still have. At the time I told them I own the SB4100 and I was told I own the new modem (I have kept the paperwork trail showing the original purchase and the swap).
As I do not use OV or have service beyond 18/5 I have had no need to upgrade to a newer modem. Said by: Consider yourself lucky they're not spewing compatibility BS as a reason not to allow BYOD.They're getting pretty close to that now.
Only the 2 Arris voice models are listed as BYOD: Arris TM804G (Hard to find, AFAIK.) Arris TM822G ($159 on Amazon, ATM) The rest are not: Motorola SBV6220. Cisco DPQ3212.

Cisco DPQ3925. Available for use by customers that use an Optimum-provided modem only. Cisco DPQ3925 available for use by Business customers that use an Optimum-provided modem only.
They USED to show several supported DOCSIS 3.0 Non-Voice models (for those that just wanted Internet-Only service). Including the Motorola SB6141 8x4 ($89 at most retailers).
I'll bet that they are in fact STILL supported, and this 'omission' is just another way for them to maximize their Modem Rentals. Said by: Just contacted Optimum Customer Service Representative, all new subscriber after November 17, 2014 will be charged $4.95 modem rental fee if you use Optimum-provided modem.Well if that is the case then all of us can expect a modem fee some time later this year. All of the last 'new subscriber only' rates and packages have been forced upon all of us eventually. I'm talking about the changes to Silver and Gold with the on demand additions and the price increases for the Sports Pak and MRDVR. I hear that Time Warner Cable gives you a modem with voice-only service for free if you have their Phone service, but bring your own modem for the internet (about to find out, as they have raised the modem rental fee to an absurd $8/mo). I would be curious to see if CV does the same thing, because while the QoS (separate bandwidth on the modem level not affected by internet traffic) on cable operator provided VoIP is nice, there are options that are substantially cheaper if they want to make it $40/mo+ for phone service once you account for equipment rental.
