I don't have HD nor premium programs like HBO, sports channels. Can I use it. I am a Comcast customer

You can use this unit for any level of service from Comcast. The only limit is what connections there are on the back. If you want to run a phone line through it, and there is no phone jack, you will be limited to just cable TV.

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

Your cable channels and your internet package literally have nothing to do with one another. This is for cable internet, nothing to do with cable television. So yes, it will work, as long as you actually have an internet package with them.

I cannot tell you if it will work for you. I do know that you cannot attach your phone to it. Contact Comcast and ask before buying it.

Yes, you can watch Cable, dish, etc on it through component, HDMI, SVGA, or standard Video. I highly recommend HD channels to fully utilize the 1080 resolution though.

You can, If you buy the addon device to watch TV. Out of the box, though, you can't

I have no issues with my Samsung Plasma set. Comcast threw in free local channels plus HBO until December. I do not have their HD receiver so the picture from them is worse than the picture I get with the antenna.

To my knowledge if there is not an app for what you want to see this tv will not stream it. I tried to stream ESPN3 and because the tv has no memory I couldn't download Adode player and could not stream it.

I have Comcast, and I wanted to not rent a box. I had to buy a cable modem and a router to do that. You will need a cable modem.

I did and it works great. If you want high Definition (HD) pctures you need HD cable and a HD subscription.

You cannot access digital cable stations with these homemade solutions. You will only access standard non encrypted cable and over the air broadcasts. You could possibly receive over the air HD broadcasts provided you purchased the right cards. However, by the time you buy the 3 video processing cards that would equal the dual tuners (and one for play back), you are looking at several hundred dollards already. The you have to factor in the rest of the computer, the harddrive space, etc.

I do not know, since I don't have a Roku unit or do streaming video on the computer it is used on.

I really don't know why you couldn't, but I would call Comcast and ask them. I have Charter Cable and it works great.

Yes, for the channels that air HD content you will see it in HD on your TV. Just make sure to connect the box to your TV via an HDMI cable to get the best picture.

Make sure your cable box is set to 1080P. I have stitched for a regular TV to a HD TV and had to call Comcast and reprogram the box. (easy to do over the phone)

I have one installed in my windows 7 system. I just went to the local Comcast office and picked up a MCard and installed it myself. Not really any issues to speak of. The CableCard was activated using an automated telephone system. While the card was working, I did have to call Comcast support to complete the "pairing" of the CableCard to the Ceton Tuner. Afterward, I was able to access Premium channels, like HBO. Comcast charges a $8.00 digital outlet fee for the Cablecard. There is no fee, if the Ceton Tuner is the only device you use to receive TV.

Yes, pretty much. Assuming you have basic cable service or are in range of digital HDTV service.

No, not for channels that require subscription service (CNN, Showtime, etc.). For local programming (and the increasing number of HD channels) and for PBS, the reception is crystal clear. Those are what I watch now and I no longer pay for cable or satellite.

Phone and internet, yes. TV, you will still need to rent the Comcast HD box...

You commented that you were using comcast basic package, which is probably analog. We have Insight in our area and they have a separate digital package, called digital 3.2, which sends a digital signal that would be far superior. You can purchase HD packages within that set-up.
