Cable connection
Do you have to have an ISP for a cable modem, or would just having the cable provider work?

I have Comcast Cable fot high-speed internet, and they are my ISP. So to answer your question your cable provider ends up being your ISP. You can also sign up for plans with AOL and MSN (for an additional fee of course) where you bring your own access and you get to use all of their services but the cable company is still your ISP.
