Subject: Microsoft urging users to buy Harware Firewalls

Besides, most cable modems are bridges.
It'd be hard to do NAT routing on something with
no IP address itself.

ADSL modems often have this sort of facility but
it has to be set up by someone competent; they don't
usually come enabled by default.
