Does this work as a modem as well, and does it support cable internet?

It is NOT a modem, it is a wireless router. Modems are usually different, and I always suggest people get a SEPARATE modem for whatever technology they're using (DSL, Cable, WISP, Cell Data card, etc). This will work with any modem using ethernet connections.

There is no input for coax - so no. If you look at what DD WRT can do - this can do all of that stuff. There is some really advanced stuff that 99% of home users would never use.

This does not work as a modem but will work with cable internet that has a modem to give you wifi

Yes, of course. That is what it is for. But, make sure you check the specs with your cable company first. Was not right config for my system. Modem I needed was a lot more expensive than this one.

I have only used it to create a WiFi signal from an incoming internet line. I have no idea if it would work with a modem. Sorry .......

NO - It is simply a cable modem. (I used mine as a replacement for a TWC rental). Mine is hooked up to an ASUS wi-fi router.

If you want telephone service from cable provider, NO - This is a simple modem and will support internet only. Not a telephony gateway. You need Arris Touchstone TM822G DOCSIS 3.0 8x4 Ultra-High Speed Telephony ModemIf you are asking about VOIP like vonage, magic jack, ooma ,google voice- Yes those will work

It is a router only, not a router/modem combo. It will work behind a cable modem to provide wifi, but not in place of it.

You should be able to use the modem regardless of what level of cable TV service. Internet service is separate.

This is a modem. I also have purchased a Router. I have xfinity cable, internet and phone.

Yes, this is an ADSL/DSL modem. This is NOT a cable modem (the round wire you plug into your TV), this uses your existing phone wires. DSL is considered High-Speed internet and can range in price and speed depending on your Internet Service provider. I recommend calling your local telephone company and seeing if High-Speed internet is offered in your area before you buy this.

I know the description says for Comcast only, but I purchased this modem in January of 2012 and plugged it in to Charter Cable and it has been rock-solid ever since. I probably should add the caveat that my subscription is for the 60MB speed level, so it's possible that this modem won't work properly with higher speed packages. I believe that the Comcast-only declaration is because this modem doesn't appear in the "approved modems" list for the other ISP's, but that's just my guess.

It needs a wired ethernet port, and it can be configured (browse to http://v-configure.com) with a fixed IP address or it can accept an IP from the DHCP server between it and the internet. A cable modem works as that upstream DHCP server, no reason a wireless device won't work. I have one from clear.com and it behaves just like a cable modem.

It comes up in the VDSL search, but this modem does not support VDSL. It states that in the product description, and there are numerous complaints scattered around the one-star comments saying that it doesn't. If you need a VDSL-compatible modem, you don't want this one.

It will work for Internet and Telephone. It will not work for Cable TV. You need a separate cable box for the TV, but this does all the rest. The modem in the Arris TM802G is a DOCSIS 3.0 and works great. I don't have Comcast, and I don't know if they will authorize the telephone portion of the modem, but there should be no problem with using it as an internet modem. Time-Warner who I have authorized the modem, but refused to authorize the telephone in this modem, so I disconnected it and now use a Zoom modem. I also no longer have their telephone, so I've got an Arris TM802G for sale if I ever get around to putting it up somewhere. Keep in mind, this does not have WiFi, which is one of the reasons I bought this modem and not the TM852G which includes WiFi. I wanted to use my own router which will outperform anything that is integrated into a telephony modem.

I bought the Arris TM802G from Amazon because Comcast said I had to have a Doc Sis 3.0 telephony modem. Comcast said they weren't able to support this modem. I told Comcast that I was using it just for phone and cable and they were able to install it over the phone. It should work for Internet as well.

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.

Depends on what service you have. The type of modem is different for DSL vs. Cable vs. Gateway (a modem that allows for phone service). Also, some modems work with some providers and not others: Verizon vs. Comcast vs. Other. Once you answer the first issue, you can narrow down a host of good modems (except for Gateways--there aren't too many good ones of those out there). Then you can compare the modem with the provider's compatibility lists. What service provider do you have and what kind of modem type do you need?

It is not a DSL Modem, you will still need a modem. I didn't read close enough. It is just a wireless Router. But it works fine as a Wireless Router. I have Century Link as wellThere is a model like this that has the DSL Modem in it. When picking a Modem & Router it has to be ADSL or ADSL2 to work on CenturyLink
