The only thing ridiculous is you arguing about something when you're ignorant on the subject. Do a Google search for "uncap cable modem configuration" and you'll find plenty of ways to uncap your cable modem (DOCSIS cable systems which Road Runner is DOCSIS compliant. Do some research and read the configuration file in your cable modem when you figure it out. If you get caught, you will lose access to RR forever. Don't get caught. AFAIK, when the cable modem comes online and handshakes with the upstream network, a MD5 hash of the config file is exchanged and if they do not match, you get reported. Cable modems that don't handshake aren't allowed on the network. You better make very sure that the .bin file is lost when a power cycle occurs.
