I currently have a modem and wireless router for Comcast TV & INternet. If I use a splitter from the cable line, can I use this Telephony modem?

Comcast set up the Arris TG862G I purchased on Amazon. A splitter was used to feed the Arris modem from one output and cable TV from the other output. I have a router connected to the Arris by an Ethernet cable. The Arris will replace your current internet modem and your current router can be used in conjunction with the Arris.

This unit replaces the modem and router completely. I have it the cable attached to it, and see no reason why a splitter wouldn't work (except that you may lose some bandwidth). I would try it, based on if it were returnable.

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.

it does split into 4 or 5 lines but i only tried into 2 lines.my source router was about 70 feet away.you may get a better signal if the ethernet cable comes directly from the modem.this caused my signal from one to be jittery and unstable when connected through the router.i would suggest that you try it and if it does not then amazon.com has a good return policy.

I found this router does just fine with about any modem. I use the modem provided with my cable service and it sings along. If you are buying your own modem, I suggest you check with ATT for their recommendation. I only bought this router because my cable company recommended it, and it's great! Good luck!

The cable from Comcast goes in, and then the output is Ethernet network. So one cable output in your home becomes Internet, not all of them. the modem/router (this serves as both) has wifi for your other devices.

can i plug one of these into my modem then plug two routers into the splitter? if not you plug one slitter into the other?

If you have DSL service (not cable) then its on your phone line which goes to a splitter, one for a phone line and the other for DSL. The splitter is usually provided and wired by the phone/internet provider. I hope this answers your question.

you can but you do need a small router. the splitter cables plugs into the router and the router output connects to the network. that's my setup and it has been working fine for months.( $10 -$15 bucks router}

I have everything on the phone line. I have a 3-way splitter with the phone, fax/printer/2620 and the computer. It is on Cableone, and works great.

No. This particular modem is for HSI data only - as noted in the description. I believe the Ubee DVM3203B is used for telephony, but see the following Comcast/xfinity URLs for supported devices and their approved uses:http://mydeviceinfo.comcast.net/http://customer.comcast.com/help-and-support/internet/list-of-approved-cable-modems/

Yes. That is exactly what I use it for. It was easy to set up. Just call Comcast as soon as you get it. Works great.

No, it's a cable modem, so works with Comcast cable. Works great though. You would need to buy a router in order to have wireless with this device.

I wouldn't think so. This is a DSL Gateway/Modem (signal comes from phone line) Comcast would require a Cable Gateway/Modem (self explanatory)

It's a router, not a modem. The modem is what connects to your coaxial cable coming from the provider. The modem then has another slot for an Ethernet cable that goes on to your router. The modem is also what you're probably thinking of.All routers work with all cable providers because they're only meant to relay the service signal your modem is receiving.Look up the difference between a modem and a router if you want to learn more.

Yes, absolutely.. although you should probably disable the Comcast wireless feature and hard-wire the modem to the router for best throughput. You might want to consider returning it to Comcast, though, and just invest in a new cable modem that's optimized for the AC features (DOCSIS 3.0).. unless the Comcast modem is already DOCSIS 3.0 capable. Note that DOCSIS 3.1 is due out in 2014, but I doubt you would want to wait that long.

Yes you can, but this is essentially a router. So you could plug your cable modem directly into this Netgear.

No, this modem only supports cable internet service. If you need a cable modem with telephony service, you should consider something such as an Arris Touchstone device.
