Optimum charges $4.95/month to $9.95/month as rental fee for their leased modems. Save on these rental fees by purchasing your own Cable Modem.
Optimum typically activates any certified DOCSIS 3.0 modem but it is better to stick with Arris or NETGEAR since many other people have purchased them.
DOCSIS 3.1 Modems are typically not recommended for Optimum/Cablevision/Altice as they have not rolled out DOCSIS 3.1 OFDM service yet.
Optimum does NOT allow retail voice modems unless they are purchased from Arris store. We do not recommend these modems are they are very old modems which will impact your Internet speed. You can always purchase a Ooma device to get phone line and even lower your monthly phone bills.
