Can I use this with a Comcast router?

Do you mean Comcast modem? If so, I don't see why not. It should work with any type of modem wether it is a cable or DSL modem. The modem's job is to convert the incoming signal from analog to digital. The router routes the digital information (packets) to and from your devices.

I don't know the capabilities of the Comcast router. I am using it with a Netgear High Speed Router connected to Comcast internet/tv cable and it works well. I would look at the speed of the Comcast Router to see if it would support the speed of the Belkin N900. Someone at Comcast might know if the the two work together.

Yea I believe any router will work with this. Once you connect it to a router by Ethernet cord the wifi should start running after you set it up

Its just a modem - you'll have to get a separate router. Unlike what comcast provides which is a dual purpose modem/router.

I ditched the router rental from my Internet/TV/Phone provider which was $10/month. I'm no expert, but routers are routers and if your Comcast router connects through a CAT5/RJ40 connector it should work. I have no experience with anything Comcast except: I went from Comcast to another provider due to poor service. I called & emailed my ISP and told them I wanted to save some money. They provided me with instructions on where to return to return my old router and save $$$. I configured the router after downloading/reading the user manual.

http://customer.comcast.com/help-and-support/internet/comcast-supported-routers-gateways-adapters/ This is the link for compatible routers and this link to check if your device is compatible with it.http://customer.comcast.com/help-and-support/internet/list-of-approved-cable-modems/. I do not have Comcast, but up to now this Netgear was the best I had and it is compatible with all the routers I tested, in my house and in friends house. So I assume that if the router is compatible, this device will only amplify the router itself and the signal from Comcast if the router is compatible wit it. This device must be compatible with the router.

cannot answer question. I called comcast to get spec. for my router/modem, and the one I purchased would not work. can only suggest that you check with several sources to see what the spec. is for carrier.

Hi Anne, This is a Modem only. It has no inherent router/wireless capabilities. It has a port for the Coaxial cable and another port, Ethernet, to plug in the Cable from your router. Normally, your router will have a special ethernet port for the wire to the modem and 4 other ethernet ports.I have this modem for over a year now and it has been pretty reliable, only dropping the connection when Comcast burps.Good Luck Jim

I have a router supplied by Comcast and it is not a Netgear router and it worked great

No, this is a DSL modem, not a cable modem. It would work as a wireless router for Comcast if you have a separate Cable modem, however it will not work as both for cable.

NO, this is not compatible with Comcast. This is a DSL modem which uses a standard phone jack (RJ-11). Comcast is a cable provider and uses a different type input.

Definitely will work with Comcast. Not clear what you mean about bypassing current Wi-Fi.

The does not have a coax input. So, if Comcast uses cable connections (rather than phone line hookups), I don't think this will work. I used it with AT&T DSL, because they provide their signal (in the house) via phone lines and/or ethernet cables. Hope that helps. :)

Yes it works with any cable modem from comcast. the router has an ethernet port which looks like the phone jack, but has twice the amount of wires and is bigger in size. The cable that normally comes from the cable modem and goes into your computer, is instead plugged into the router, so that it can ROUTE all the traffic from various computers and the internet back and forth to each other. However, I would NOT recommend the model I bought because of the issue with the DHCP server built into it, at least not until such a time as a firmware update corrects it. The N700 and N750 have no such issues.

Yes. You can connect this to your cable modem and use it as a wired router to distribute your internet connection throughout your home or business. The key word is "wired" as this does not have wireless capability. Connections will require ethernet cables.

If Comcast uses cable signal (with a coax connection), then no. This is for DSL; so it needs a landline-type connection - though you don't usually need a landline account. We used it with AT&T; dsl. And yes, it is a modem and router all in one. Takes in the signal and pushes it out too. :-)

I use it in conjunction with a 1st router. So if this is what you mean, the answer is yes.
