Yes, your modem has a unique IP address. In order to use, it needs to be registered with your cable internet company.

Yes, I have a cable modem, but I don't subscribe to the cable service I prefer Direct TV instead. I have to pay the cable company to use the cable modem, but I only pay them for the modem line.
Since I live in an apartment complex in an area with other apartment complexes it is hard to get cheap DSL, the cheapest form of broadband that I could find was through the cable company less than $50/month.

simply put - YES. You do need to subscribe to a cable provider - although not necessarily the provider as your cable TV

Yes you do! Call your cable company and they would be glad to tell you in detail what you need to do to get connected with them!
