I do not use my phone with any Comcast-provided phone services, but I do use it with my OOMA internet phone over the Comcast internet. It works wonderfully !

According to one of the reviewers here who posted in Jan. 2011, yes. Mine is not hooked up to cable. Suggest you talk to your cable provider before you purchase.

I got this for Comcast, found out later they won't let it on their system. I'd contact them and see if they allow it on their system.

The wired phone can be used when the electricity is off only if you have regular phone service that is still working (i.e., wired service from your local phone company). If you have Comcast internet phone service, it will not work since your modem runs on electricity.

I bought it and my phone and computer went out before I installed it. Comcast came out and told me it would support their internet service, but not their phone service - I have Comcast internet/phone/TV bundle. I don't know - but that's what the Comcast serviceman said - does not support Comcast phone.

Comcast installed today (old one died). Phone (landline) works. Built in Wifi weaker than my standalone. Haven't tried the 4 router ports yet.

No, comcast is cable, unless Comcast is offering DSL in your area, it is not compatible.

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.

So far I really like this phone. I am not on Comcast but do use a Digital phone service elsewhere. Good luck.

That is one of the nice things about this system... simply plug them into the phone jacks and they worked great. I have 4 lines and 8 extensions and no problems yet. They auto-find/name or you can assign names/numbers to the extensions.

I just bought this modem on Amazon and after screwing around on the phone for 3 days with the people at Comcast a Comcast tech was called and he was not able to have it recognized???. I was without phone and Internet for 3 days and let him install one of their modems temporarily. I don't understand this, are they doing this in purpose to rent there stuff??? Comcast is also charging me $39.95 for the tech.

I don't think so, this is for ADSL phone line, Comcast is a cable. Look for cable modems.

We have (VOIP) Voice Over Internet Protocol with our present cable company and replaced our old Panasonic phones with this new set by plugging directly into the router in our AT&T; service. We are very happy with the phones' reception over the Internet. I hope this answers your question.

The base unit has to have an ethernet connection into a modem or router. The base unit then communicates wireleslly to the handsets. However, you will want to check with your VOIP provider regarding which modems will work with the phones. For example, the business class modem/router units Comcast provides will NOT work. I had to get a stand-alone modem, connect it with a router, and plug the base unit into the router.

Since I used to work for Comcast that's easy. You have to have phone service from Comcast or it will not work. Then you simply plug the phone cord into line 1. It is exactly like a phone but I would not waste money on it, it is the worst product I have ever seen.

Any opinions yet fellas?.... I have the same question, after considering to bail on Qwest DSL and DISH, and change to Comcast Triple-Play for Phone, Highspeed Internet, and Cable.

I was out of the country and sorry for the late answer. The Panasonic phone system is actually a base station phone and four extensions. We have them throughout our home and they work great. Very good acoustics even on speakerphone. Nice features such as timed "do not ring" at night. We have one line on Comcast and one line on Vonage and no problems. For a 2-line phone system, this was the best choice at the best price.

No, this is a DSL modem compatible with the phone company's older DSL plans. It can be used with AT&T. Comcast is a cable company using a completely different technology using the same cables that bring cable TV to your house. For comparison, this modem uses the same wires that bring landline service (if any) to your house.
