I wish you good luck if you're able to get this to work. I tried helping friends set up a Linksys router (and they are among the best) with a Comcast modem and couldn't get it to work. Tried all the routes of disconnecting, resetting, you name it. Even Comcast couldn't give me a straight answer. Ultimately the friends switched over to DSL and have had no problem since. If you are able to get it to work with Comcast, please post it so others will know how. Thanks!
