Hol:

Based on my experience (a couple years old, but I suspect still relevant),
you will find that most of the modems on their list are really hard (but
not impossible) to find on the consumer market. I ended up getting an Arris
modem, because I wanted to use its telephony features. I never got that set
up, though I don't think there were any blockers. I was very happy with it,
but it wasn't cheap. Let me know if more info could help.
