Modem Configuration

[naushad]

I want to subscribe to an ISP which requires me to buy a modem. The configuration they are providing me is 'COM 21'. Can anyone tell me is that the same as Cable Modem? Or can anyone give me some more information on that type of modem?

Thank you.

this website says it has sold off its product lines. Cable modems went to http://www.castlenet.com.tw/

But their cable modem products do not list a com21.

I wouldn't want to buy a modem which such an unclear supplier and support. I would ask the ISP to recommend an alternative.
