I just signed up for ADELPHIA cable internet. I have been on dialup, new to
cable. I want to purchase my own modem rather than rent. I read good reviews
on the Motorola SURFboard 5100. Do you know if it's compatible with
ADELPHIA? If not, give me several good selections for modem selection. Also,
I'm running a dedicated coax cable from outside to my PC. Is the RJ6 cable
OK to use? Best Buy directed me that way. Thanks for any impute.

RG6 cable should be fine. Your installation should include a ground block
(near your electrical panel or some other grounded place) and than a splitter
to your modem and TVs. The modem should be the first and only thing on it's
leg of the splitter and the TVs on the remaining 1 or more legs. Get a splitter
that can handle all your rooms - up to 7 with an 1:8 splitter (hopefully they
all home run to the same point of origin outside).
