I doubt that it matters who the cable company is. What matters is what
type of set top box you have. I have Comcast with two completely
different STBs, and firewire channel changing works fine for me with
both of them.

Most STBs are either Motorola or Scientific Atlantic. The Motorola ones
will likely work with "6200ch". I used "mythchanger" for the Scientific
Atlanta box.
