I have my home phone service, bundled in with my internet, so I have to plug in my phone through the modem. Is this set up compatible for that?

Hey Carla, I've got magicjack and I have to plug that into my modem too so I'm sure plugging the Panasonic into your modem would work fine because they both work off the same kind of phone wire, no difference.

Should be fine. This is a router not a modem. Routers don't care. Modems do. ;)

No, this modem is compatible with the Comcast system, you should not have to call them to set-up modem.

You do have to call them. They will need to add the address of the modem so it will work properly.

No This is only a router, use the modem that the service provides. Most combination units fall short and are expensive.

Yes, you connect it to the house line. You might need to configure the program that you use, such as your fax software, to make sure it it pointing to the modem. Windows Uodate should automatically download and install the necessary driver. If it doesn't, try connecting the modem to a different USB port.

Yes among other things. You will also need to hook your modem up to a wireless router. This little thing enables you to receive an internet signal from the wireless router.

Yes, unless you have home phone service through a cable provider like Time Warner. It works differently than the phone company's wiring set up.

I am sorry I cannot help you with this. When we decided to purchase our modem, we bought the same kind that we rented from our cable internet provider. We knew for certain that it would work.

Yes, it works great. You must have a wieless internet, unless your modem is close to connect directly.

OK....I may have found my answer. Probably the 'telephony' referred to as not working with this modem would be if you have VOIP service through the cable provider. The cable provider gives you a different modem if you use their VOIP service....I do NOT use the cable VOIP service, I use VoicePulse so I think this modem will be fine as the VoicePulse module just connects to my router. Probably something like Vonage is similar.So, I am about to take the plunge and order this.

No, this modem is for high-speed DSL use only. You would need a modem that specifies "cable." Your internet service provider won't accept any modem so your best bet is to call them or look up on their website for compatible cable modems, so that you get the best (and fastest) internet experience possible. This modem is more a headache than anything, I wouldn't bother. Check out Netgear cable modems for a good start.

I own this modem, the only plugins on the back are a ethernet and a usb plugin. I have a magicjack for my phone service and I have to plug it into my router. I believe with most internet based phone services you will have to have a router to hook your phone up, unless you get something like phone service thru Comcast, then their modem has a phone jack built into it.

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

The modem has phone capability buty cable company, cox, said the modem was not compatible with their service so they wouldn't activate the modem.

I am sorry this is an internet phone and can only be plugged into the internet. you will also need to get a provider to provide the service for you.

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.
