Let em try it. Its our Internet connection that we pay for. What we use our bandwidth for is of a personal non-commercial nature and is perfectly legal.

The only way to be certain is to write down the various numbers on the unit label and call up Comcast support so they can walk you through the setup. Having the #'s recorded will help as they are very tiny on the unit. If your lucky you will get someone with skill and an amiable attitude as i did. It is always the luck of the draw with any support these days.. Answering yes to the question "did you get this from us" doesn't hurt either.

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.

Do not buy this device. I purchased the device and Comcast could not get it set up. The devise I received was listed to an account in Colorado. The Amazon sponsored supplier gave me a return authorization and address but then refused to refund the purchase price because they said they moved (between the time I got the return authotization and the ship time - a few days). I also had to eat the return shipping costs plus about $300 in increased Comcast installation costs.Just a word of caution.

I have Comcast and have been happily using the SBG900 modem for years. I'd say whomever you're talking with at Comcast down't know what they're talking about.

No it's not. This was a model sold wholesale to Time Warner Cable and while it might sorta work on Comcast, it's not compatible with their "Blast!" service so you'd top out at able 6 Mbs I got this a few weeks ago to use with Comcast and it was a disaster. Ended up with a Netgear N600 instead.

This is a classic case of buyer beware. Dish is as shady as any other service provider, so expect anything. They even told me, when I tried to activate a 722K, that their records showed my purchased unit to be a rental, so they were going to charge me a monthly fee for it. If it's dishformyrv.com that wants to collect the $90, I would bypass them and go straight to Dish Network, but be prepared to prove the purchase. Dish will probably activate the receiver for free, because they make their bucks off the monthly service fees. Dish will push, but they can be shoved back. I returned a 611 rental receiver, and Dish charged me $350 to replace it, claiming that I caused the failure. I told them where to put their monthly service fees, and they backed down and returned my money. You have to be your own consumer advocate with these people.

This fee thing seems to bother a lot of people. Look, it's like two cents per hour. Stack that $14.99 monthly charge against a $50 or $100 or $200 per month cable bill. I think the taxes alone on my cable bill are more than the TiVo subscription. When I was last talking to Comcast, the rep noticed I had a TiVo and asked me if I liked paying a monthly subscription. I told him that monthly subscriptions annoy me and that the cable company (the guy I was talking to) charged me far more than TiVo. He agreed that the Comcast bill was far larger than the Tivo bill. It's all relative.

Does NOT work with my Comcast! Not sure if it's incompatible or just broken.+

No, from what I have been told Comcast's voltage is too low. The one I bought would not work.

I've had no issues with it. The tech when he installed my service tried to upsell me a newer modem saying this one was too slow. I constantly get 8 Mbps down and 5 up. And yes I have Comcast.

NO.. Actually I sent this modem back. I did replace it, however, with a "TELEPHONY" modem that is just like the one I was renting from Comcast. I didn't realize my error in reviewing this item until after I hit ENTER. sorry

Unless Comcast it's offering dsl then no. This is strictly a dsl modem. You would want to search for a cable modem.

Never mind Comcast, Pro Call worked so well for me it blocked EVERY CALL, and I got nary a response from their customer service on how to correct it, after 3 attempts to contact them. IMO, Both the product and the customer service suck!
