Easy install. Need to have Comcast do a ping/test/turn on...over the phone. No problem. I should have done it years ago!!!
When returning the Comcast box just take it to the UPS store and they will take care of it for no charge. (must be a UPS store not a box and ship type place)

I admit my ignorance but assumed the comcast modem is used in conjunction with my TV,Internet and phone? In the past any problem with the aforementioned the customer service people tried troubleshooting through cables. The light indicators warn of such problems. so if i purchase my own modem what affect does it have on TV and telephone and troubleshooting? I hate the rental charges also
