I want to use this to get internet onto second floor of home which has no cabling other than coax used for TV's. Lots of costly cable options, this is less. So questions/install options are 1) I have Comcast X1 and cable from customer demark goes to...

TRENDnet TPA-311 is HPNA3.1-compliant, and occupies the band 12-45MHz, which overlaps with the "subband" or "return" portion of the cable TV spectrum making them incompatible. On the other hand, a broadcast or "over-the-air" TV occupies frequencies between 54 and 890 MHz, which can coexist with the HPNA 3.1 frequency band. So, the option with the "ATSC/NTSC" output seems to be a good one. I have a couple of TPA-311s connected to the cable that brings the Dish Network receiver's secondary TV output in the basement to a TV on the second floor on channel 73 frequency; everything works just great.

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.

In my particular case, the coax cable runs from the wall to my ARRIS modem; from there, the internet signal is carried by a network cable running from the modem to a Belkin wireless router; which is, in turn, connected to my desktop via the same type of network cable. I needed the wireless router primarily for my laptop, but my smartphone and other devices also use it. I typically use both the desktop and my laptop to work online, without issue.

I use all of my own gear. I will not allow Comcast to put anything other than a cable TV box in my house. Comcast's device can be used by Comcast to provide public WiFi. You have to opt out if you don't want the device in your house to provide this service.

While you might be able to get some of the routing and VOIP functionality to work the short answer is, no. This is an ADSL modem and Comcast would require a cable modem.

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 am using the exact same modem and I have xfinity internet service. I have no issues at all. Works perfect. Price compare with costco before you buy it.

In using this I found the best setup is the cable feed enters the house. Put in a 2-way splitter. One leg of the splitter run directly to the cable modem (I have Comcast), run the other leg of the two way splitter into this Booster. From this booster run to a single splitter with enough ports to supply all your televisions. If you have unused ports put terminators on them. I used this splitter from the Motorola Amp to my televisions Calrad 75-713-8 8-Way 1GHz Digital Splitter. They make smaller splitters, but this one had the amount of ports I needed. If you use multiple splitters you degrade your signal a lot, that's why one large splitter with all home runs of cable is best. Good luck.

I use it for century link which is adsl and as for cable Internet I don't believe it works so check to see if it is cable or adsl

I have another computer in the living room, that has a dsl box hooked up to it, and the one in my bedroom has no dsl box, only this USB adaptor hooked to it, and I get the signals from my dsl box from it, to have internet in my bedroom. You don't have to have the ethernet cable hooked onto the one the adaptor is hooked into because of the wireless signals. I'm not all that computer savvy to explain it any other way, hope this helps.

No it does not come with a coaxial cable. It works perfectly. I just had to contact Comcast, to get setup. Every modem has an identifer. So Comcast needed that. They were very nice. They didn't complain about me getting my own modem.

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 do not believe so this is for dsl service. You need a cable modem for Comcast. If you search cable modem several should show up.

I'm no expert, but I doubt it would work as comcast is on cable and not DSL. Two different systems I beleive

I used a splitter on my coaxial direct tv connection, 1 connection for for direct tv and the other for internet. However, I found out I did not need this because my cable box has a internet connector (RJ45) that I could use.

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

for me, i just had to connect it to my cable like it was connected. Xfinity website loads and it will automatically read the info off the modem, register it, and even update the firmware for comcast. its done automatically, takes about 10 minutes, and i did NOT have to call them!
