The cable modem provided by Cox is actually pretty decent. I believe they sell some Motorola box. I use a D-Link one myself but there's no particular reason for it over the Motorola one. I use a Linksys WRT54G as my router/WAP. The WRT is doubly sweet because it runs Linux (certain versions of it, at least). I uploaded the DD-WRT firmware onto mine and now use it as a DNS server as well. Plus, I boosted the signal a bit and can easily reach all corners of my house now. Highly recommended!
