Yes, you do need an internet provider. Our Netgear router has really worked wonderfully. We have several computers and two televisions working off it. We are using Roku to pick up Netflix on the individual television sets, since they are not smart TV's. My son is a computer specialist and he told me the Netgear router was tops. Very pleased.

While you might be able to get some of the routing and VOIP functionality to work the short answer is, no. This is an ADSL modem and Comcast would require a cable modem.

if you already have internet in your home you can hook it up to that you will need a internet hook up cord they sell that on amazon or Walmart

No. It takes uses your Internet provider (comcast) to connect to a voip service

It depends on the internet connect you have. In addition, you may need to get a cable card from your cable provider.

Unfortunately no. Still needs a wireless router attached. Either way, it didn't work in our home with Comcast, so don't buy if that's your provider.

you need the internet. additionally,i never could get it set up without being able to hard wire it to a router before using it wirelessly. which made it useless for my situation.(no access to router, just a wireless signal.

No, you cannot get internet. It's TV only. To get internet, you need another type of dish, and it won't receive TV.

Yeah probably. I wish I had a solid answer for you. We used this for maybe 6 months and then switched Internet providers.

I don't think so. Comcast provided their own equipment when we switched from DSL to cable internet.

No, you will still need an Internet provider and wireless Internet service. This is intended to be used with an air card.

Yes, you would also need the modem. The internet provider I am currently using provided the modem, but I needed to purchase the router - so it is not "all in one".

I used the router successfully for a few months until my Frontier modem died. They replaced it with a modem/router combo so I have a good spare router.

You would need to connect the modem to a telephone line. So telephone service would be necessary.

No, except that the unit requires access to internet so you will need to continue to pay your internet provider.
