Will my wireless router still work with Charter?
Charter Communications charges a .99/month lease for a cable modem/wireless router combo. I just purchased my own wireless router, but did not purchase a cable modem as I will be moving in 6 months and switching to Time Warner (they supply a cable modem as part of their services, I think). When I contacted Charter to ask them to change my equipment lease from the .99/month modem/router to just the /month modem, they told me that even if I had my own wireless router, wireless internet service would not be available unless I continued to pay the .99/month fee.
Is this true? Or did the customer service rep not know what she was talking about? She said that you could only connect one computer to the cable modem via Ethernet cable, but I figured I could just plug that Ethernet cable into my wireless router and everything work as normal…

You are correct. If you purchase your own router, you can plug the cable modem into it and share the internet connection with up to 253 devices.
