Will this work with Comcast service? I am trying to upgrade so I can set up a wireless network and use my laptop.

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. :)

No it will not, Comcast uses Cable infrastructure for their internet service.This is for ADSL, which is phone line based (like AT&T;).

Comcast is not a big fan of when you have your modem. Yes, it was compatible, but Comcast after a few weeks stopped working and wanted to charge for technical service help. My advice... run while you still can (from Comcast, that is).

Sorry for the late reply. This modem will not get you wifi (only a wired Ethernet connection to your computer). You will need to buy a separate router for this. You can buy a combination cable modem and wifi. There are several on the approved Comcast list. I elected to have two separate units. First, if I leave comcast, I can still use my router. Second, I purchased a router with other capabilities including a print server, network storage, cloud capabilities and a DNLA server (media server). Basically, I wanted to build a home network. There are several good routers out there depending what you want. Sorry for the late reply. This modem will not get you wifi (only a wired Ethernet connection to your computer).

I would tell you but it seems like a waste of time when you already know what to do. Sorry just giving you a hard time. I actually didn't do it. Comcast came by on a service call and installed it without me asking them. Would have been ok if they had done what i actually asked them.

This modem doesn't do wifi. You need a wireless router for that. It does work for comcast though. I actually had to find a comcast employee to upgrade the software on this device through a comcast forum because my internet turned on and off every five minutes. It has not had a problem since I got that done. And works great.

No it's not compatible with Comcast. My husband had to return the one we purchased.

Nope. I had comcast come to marco island and they could not use mine. Said it was prior generation and would not work. I wasted my money on it. Find out from comcast exactly which model is supported. Mine was not.

It will with no problems. You don't need a new modem. I have Comcast's older modem with of course a router and it works perfectly. Comcast sounds like they are trying to make you pay more money for a newer modem which is not necessary.

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.

it will and it wontI have this modem, when it works its just fine, but i have to reboot it at least once a day. I complained to comcast and they said to buy a modem which was DOCSIS 3.0 --- this one is only 2.0

Yes. Mine is working with my Comcast router. I have the Comcast supplied Arris model TG862G. I followed the setup instructions and it worked easily. BTW I found that customer service was very responsive when I had a concern (caused by Comcast) but remember that (if my memory is accurate) they are only open on Mon thru Fri, from 9 am to 5 pm PST. That is why they may not have been available when Jimmy called.

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.

Unless Comcast is NOT cable-based in your area, it won't work. The N300 is for DSL connections. But other that that, this router shouldn't be considered as it is so bloody unstable. Fine one day, then can't find its ass with both hands the next. Stay away unless you fancy standing in the return line at the computer place.

As a DOCSIS 2.0 modem it will work with Comcast, but if you paid for speeds above 25Mbps you should go for a modem that supports DOCSIS 3.0 as this modem will only go up to about 25-30.

I don't know anything about Comcast. Time Warner Cable approves of this modem and it works fine with their service.

Your ISP only needs the MAC address of the modem. Comcast also asked for the Manufacturer, Model No. and Serial No. I believe they just want to make sure it is compatible and if there is any issues what specific unit is giving problems. This unit has worked flawlessly on the Comcast network.

You need a modem and router. This works with comcast. Get a modem off this list of theirs that is d3 and IPv6 on the chart to the right. Then you need a router like this one. http://mydeviceinfo.comcast.net
