If so, does that mean if I ask for a replacement modem my monthly charge will only go up by £2, and I won't need to pay for it?

That is an antique and will be replaced by default plus as it says below it does not support 10Mb.
Terayon Terajet TJ210
From approx October 2001 Customers started to receive the Terayon TJ210. It is Docsis only (so will not work reliably if at all, on the parts of the network that use Eurodocsis). The TJ210 was Ethernet and USB and remained in use until April 2002.
Does not support 10 or 20Mbps Tiers of Service
There are also reports that the TJ210 does not work well in the newer 256QAM environment under circusmstances like heavy download.
