I have a coax lightning arrestor, hooked to a std copper ground rod, 
driven so only an inch sticks up, with about 18" of 8 gauge copper wire, 
interposed between the ISP's cable and the cable coming on in to the 
modem on a shelf about 6 feet from where I am sitting.  Zero damages in 
several years, and the pole the cable the ISP cable comes from has been 
smacked with mother natures best quite a few times in those same years.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
