The purpose of cable TV is not to eliminate commercial advertisement, but to provide more channels with better reception than you can get by means of a TV antenna.

Some cable companies restrict the modems it allows their customers to use. Check with your cable provider.

Once all this is set up, just screw the cable into the modem and power it up. There are other things that could go wrong, but the cable provider should provide free technical support.
