Well, it looks like we won’t be getting any Christmas baskets from cable companies this year. Why not? Because we’ve made it our mission to help as many people as possible stop their cable companies from basically scamming them out of up to $120 each year. You probably don’t even realize it, but your cable company charges you a fee of either $8 or $10 each month to use their modem. And here’s the worst part: the fee never goes away as long as you keep your modem. So, if you’ve had an account open with your ISP for five years, you’ve paid $600 for that little box! Instead of shelling out another $600 over the next five years, get yourself a TP-Link TC-7610 DOCSIS 3.0 (8×4) Cable Modem on Amazon for $43. Follow the instructions to activate it with any ISP, return your old modem to your cable company, and that $8-10 monthly fee will disappear.
