This is Xfinity branded. How do I know it is not a blacklisted unit? How is it available on the open market and "new"?

Be sure to check the Comcast website before purchasing any DPC3939 gateway.

There is a very long review, dated October 18th, 2012 that explains it all. Try the auto install first. In my case it found a modem, but the wrong one. Look very carefully. If this is the wrong one, don't go any farther. Just call Xfinity and they will walk you through it. Make sure to tell them you want to port your number to the new modem. Although it was a process, it was worth it. Also make sure to call xfinity again after you have returned the modem to a service center. They have to be told to take the $7.00 monthly lease charge off your bill. I'm assuming you have comcast/xfinity.

I ordered a 4071f from them, and it appeared to be a brand new tv. It was in very good shape. I decided it was too small for my living room, but it was in really good condition. That has been my experience.

I can't say for sure. I checked Cox's site, and they list only a handful of devices, and DON'T list this particular one (Linksys DPC 3008-C) I bought, as an approved replacement (although, that doesn't mean it won't work!). Many cable (ISP) providers want you to either rent or purchase your equipment from them, so rarely do they include models that they DON'T sell themselves. My apologies for not having a more definitive answer, but I have Comcast....an entirely different animal altogether. As much as I hate to say it, you may have to call their tech services dept., wait on hold for an hour or two, before you can actually get an accurate answer. I can't say for sure.

If you call them they will happily tell you which modems you can purchase that are compatible with their system. Also, be careful if you buy a second hand modem online, they are often equipment that belongs to the cable company (Comcast, Cox, Time Warner) but were never returned (by deadbeat customer who left unpaid bills and pawned the equipment), they have a record of those serial numbers and they cannot be used for another account.

Mine does!, just call xfinity when you get it. They will help you get it connected. If it's no good get a hold of amazon about it being no good.

Also, why do sites like this, http://reviews.cnet.com/flat-panel-tvs/lg-55lm9600/4014-6482_7-35123203.html show it as in stock when it is not?

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.

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.

I've had this TV since November 06 and I've watched the supplier change here on this site several times. Sometimes it is Amazon, sometimes someone else. I'd just be patient and I bet it will once again come back to being sold by Amazon.

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 MbsI got this a few weeks ago to use with Comcast and it was a disaster. Ended up with a Netgear N600 instead.

I don't know. I sent mine back and am awaiting a refund. It was supposed to be new and when I went to register it with netgear. Netgear said that someone had alreadyt registered it and that it was probably used. Still waiting!!!

I bought a used one because the seller advertised it would work with Comcast. Comast could not make it work because it did not have the necessary info; included on the installation CD that comes with a new one. The seller refunded the cost but I lost about $8.00 shipping cost to send it back. Buyer beware.

It works on xfinity. But beware if you may have the Xfinity Tech to activate the phone line for your new device. It took another call(for me) to get the phone working. The internet side is straight forward. It is worth while to buy it "used" for ~ $50 to $60(current seller!) one time than $8/month to Comcast. Stay with the known I guess. When returning the rented modem, keep the receipt for proof. Comcast cannot continue to charge when the device has been returned.

To be safe, check with your provider. I'm with Time-Warner and they have an approved list.

Yes. I bought it for that reason. It's been running on my Xfinity account, here in New Mexico, all year. I get internet, television, and voice over IP bundled. This unit is the modem for Internet and voice over IP. However, be aware that Comcast handles ownership of motives differently in different parts of the country. You may have to fight with him to get the discount taken off of your account.

At the time that I purchased this modem I was a subscriber to a similar bundle through Mediacom,with whose system it was compatible, but I was told by Comcast (upon subscribing to their "Triple Play") that it was not compatible with theirs. I subsequently purchased a Arris TM602G, which is compatible with Comcast's system, and am currently experiencing trouble-free service. Both of these units were purchased through Amazon, either "used' or "reconditioned" (at considerable savings). I sincerely hope that you find this response satisfactory.
