I just upgraded to a NEW X1 modem with the self install feature, took less than 20 minutes, and worked first time, go figure......

This is an example why it is risky to purchase your own modem. The poster had a Comcast owned modem and got it fixed. If he had purchased his own modem, how long would it have taken to restore internet service?
