Internet Cable Modems do not connect to the Ethernet Cable. They basically connect to the Co-axial cables coming out of the Cable ISP (Containing TV Signals and Internet Signals both) and split them into Ethernet and Cable Signals.
Most cable modems directly connect to the Ethernet Cable, so Linux compatibility shouldn't be a problem right?
Yeap. Compatiblity with OS is not a concern.

Should I buy or rent a cable modem? Are there people selling old cable modems?
