You're probably seeing everything in your cable company's subnet. (BTW,
your modem has an IP address. It may or may not be a 10.x address, but
it probably is.) The size of the subnet can vary from location to
location and cable carrier to cable carrier. It depends on how they lay
out their IP space, if they've misconfigured their routers to forward
broadcasts, and just about anything else.
