Clear might be a good alternative for you if it is available in your area. Everything is wireless so there is no hookup. Their prices are very competitive. All you need is the receiver/modem from them and away you go. They have some remote access features that may work for you as well. They have to have a transmitter/receiving station in your area. VOIP phone service is available with certain packages so you have essentially land line phone service without the line.

Also, an acquaintance lived in Milwaukee during a summer internship. Time Warner, the cable company in that area, offered a month to month deal that was very reasonable without having to get TV with it. You might check the cable company for your area for something like this. In many cases, they rent you the modem anyway and the hookup is already there from a previous tenant, all they have to do is turn it back on.
