You should double check with Comcast to ensure that you can use this product with your specific plan, but in general, yes! -- this router is designed to replace an existing cable modem or cable modem/router combination.

Yes you can, you can turn any wired modem or router into a wireless device. You also use it to extend your wireless reach (signal repeater).

It WORKS with Comcast. I just ordered the second one to skip the riddiculous $8 Modem rental (Lost the first one due to a power surge few days ago (Idiocy will always prevail...USE a power surge protector). I start by connecting the cables to the modem then the ethernet cable to my laptop and lastly plug the modem to the power outlet. Open up your browser, go to xfinity.com, loggin to your account and it will self detect and self install your new modem. the last step which will be updating the hardware (it takes forever and franckly I don't know if it does update). I just open a new tab/window, browse thru multiple websites to test the internet. Unplug the power cord to the modem, plug the ethernet cable to your wifi router, plug in both modems and everything should work.

You should be able to call and talk with a Comcast tech to get your answer. I use Charter and their onsite tech person offered to setup mine.

It cannot. In order to replace the router that Comcast provides, you will need a device that supports DOCSIS 2.0 or 3.0. Motorola makes a line of these devices that work pretty well with Comcast - some of them also double as a wireless router. I use Comcast and the ARRIS / Motorola SB6121 SURFboard DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem (not a wireless router). I use the AirPort for all of my wireless needs.

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 wouldn't think so. This is a DSL Gateway/Modem (signal comes from phone line) Comcast would require a Cable Gateway/Modem (self explanatory)

I've had this modem for a long time and I have Comcast/Xfinity. However, I just looked at the approved device list on the Comcast website (http://mydeviceinfo.comcast.net/) and the SB5120 is no longer listed.

This is a modem. I also have purchased a Router. I have xfinity cable, internet and phone.

You should be able to go on Comcast's website and imput what type of internet package you have and they list all the modems that are compatible....that's how I came across this modem....there's many choices ..

If you don't buy it from Comcast/Charter, and have an issue which is hardware related, Ubee will not assist you in any way. They only deal directly with ISPs. Their web page refers you to go back to your provider.

Yes this will work with Comcast's modem router combination. As long as you have a free outgoing Ethernet port from the router. Most routers have four hardliners out ports. One usually is dedicated to main computer. The tplink comes with two cat 5 Ethernet cables. One goes from router to tplink. The other will go from to link to whatever device u want to hard wire in far reach of house. I'm not using the second and simply using the WiFi. Good luck. Hope it works for u as it did for me.

If Comcast uses cable signal (with a coax connection), then no. This is for DSL; so it needs a landline-type connection - though you don't usually need a landline account. We used it with AT&T dsl. And yes, it is a modem and router all in one. Takes in the signal and pushes it out too. :-)

If you already have this modem, your best bet is to just use it as a modem only and disable the routing and wifi functionality. Then you could easily pick up yourself up a nice ASUS RT-N66U and it will last many years to come.

I do not know if it is compatible with Comcast. It is a modem-router in one unit. I do want to add that it quit working after about 2 months and we ended up purchasing the recommended device from AT&T.;

This wireless router has Ethernet connections only, which means that you'd have to connect it to your cable/fiberoptic modem provided by Comcast. If you already have a modem with Ethernet output, then this should work just fine for you.

Yes! And you'll be able to write off Comcast's "rental" of the Telephony Modem - which in just a few short months will pay for itself! Be sure to hang onto ALL your receipts - including the one you received for returning Comcast's rental box......Comcast FREQUENTLY "looses" those records - and you will be obligated to spend time with them, proving you have returned their equipment and that you purchased your own equipment! Not certain what you are meaning when you say "local control" tho. I've always owned my own equipment - and have never had problems with any of it. I do appreciate the fact I don't have to pay them for their "rental equipment"! If you'll let me know what you mean by local control, I'll try to answer the question.
