Matt,
Gotta ask? Why do you want to replace the modem? If the goal is to save money, then you're spending money unnecessarily. Cablevision doesn't charge you a rental fee for the modem.
If you don't like the WiFi provided by the modem, then turn off the WIFI features, buy a standard wireless router and use it as a wireless access point. Let the cablevision modem do the routing and the router provide just WiFi.
Or, turn off both wifi and routing on the cablevision modem and use it just as a modem. Let the wireless router perform the routing and create the wireless network.
