It's not exactly a mystery why millions of people these days are cutting the cord by ditching pay TV. Well, we've got one word for you: money. People are so sick and tired of how much cable companies have been charging for pay TV all these years, especially when you're forced to pay for dozens or even hundreds of channels that you never watch. Imagine you found out half of your monthly bill for cell phone service was due to the high cost of calls to Papua New Guinea, yet you don't personally make any calls to Papua New Guinea at all. Would that be fair?
Cable companies are losing so much money due to cord-cutting, so the last thing your cable company wants is for us to tell you about an easy way to save even more money on your monthly bill. That's not going to stop us though, so get ready to start saving some cash!

Do you use a cable modem that was given to you by your internet service provider? If so, you're probably paying a monthly rental fee for that modem. You might not even realize it, but take a look at your most recent bill, you'll probably see an $8 or $10 charge on there for the modem. That monthly fee adds up to either $96 or $120 each year that you're spending unnecessarily because cable companies are now required to let you use your own cable modem. And once you get your own modem, that monthly rental fee will disappear from your bill as soon as you send your old modem back to your cable company.
As far as which modem you should choose, there are a bunch of popular options out there that work with every single major cable internet provider like Comcast/Xfinity, Charter/Time Warner Cable/Spectrum, Optimum/Altice, RCN, Cox, CenturyLink, and more.
People who are looking to spend as little as possible should check out the Motorola MB7420 cable modem. It's a best-seller that's down to just $58.99 right now at Amazon. It supports data speeds up to 686Mbps and is recommended for people with data speed tiers up to 300Mbps.
If you want something faster, you'll find the 2Gbps ARRIS SURFboard SB8200 on sale for $149, and the Motorola MG7700 cable modem & Wi-Fi router with gigabit internet support is perfect for anyone looking for a unit that has Wi-Fi as well. This way, you won't need to use a separate wireless router if you don't want to. The MG770 retails for $200, but it's on sale right now for $159.99.
These modems will all eventually pay for themselves since you'll eliminate that monthly modem rental fee on your bill. With that in mind... what are you waiting for?!
