I rent my cablemodem hardware at home. It's an extra $2 a month and they give us a new one whenever anything happens to that one, and we get electrical surges often... renting it is a 'surge protector' if you will.
Here in the dormitory we've got 'free' Internet2, though, so it kind of messes all over cable internet when I get a good peak transfer rate.
