Nobody is asking you to "use" them. In my opinion you are not only violating
the spirit of the terms of the DOCSIS consortium, you are engaged in
anti-competitive behavior. If there is a problem with DOCSIS, get it fixed.
YOU are a member company, not Com21, they are merely trying to adhere to the
method of business YOU formulated.

Tell me - did you inform Com21 of the problems with their DOCSIS certified,
@Home Level-2 approved modems? Have you attempted to resolve the issues
withing the framework of your membership at CableLabs?

Cable companies always have had a bizarre way of treating customers. I see
that in your attempt to choke-off the conversation. However, it will not be
dropped at this level, nor any other level I can bring to bear on the issue.
Cox has approved the modems for use by granting them DOCSIS certification.

Now stand behind it and fix your network.
