Re: My experience with Virgin Media has been reasonable

You're answering a different question. The person you replied to wants a modem and not a router in modem-mode.

The trouble is that even if one were to buy a 3rd party DOCSIS 3.0 modem I believe Virgin MAC filter so it would be unable to connect to their network.

The likelihood is that they will have to use Virgin's router in modem-mode with whatever router they are buying, probably something of commercial grade, rather than some domestic kit with a flashed firmware.
