That's pretty cheap-assed! Did they want you to pay for the modem, too? When Time-Warner installed broadband for me they were all ready to tear open the case and install an ethernet card by the time I had a chance to tell them I already had one. Sounds like TW guy didn't want/didn't know how to install ethernet. No doubt figured he'd plug into the USB and be outta there in 15 minutes instead of doing the job right.
