1. I have the combination unit from Xfinity and it works well for me. Articles online and posts on ToTV will say that if you want the absolute fastest speeds and best features you need to use separate units. I don't need that and prefer to have fewer power cords and boxes to take care of.
2. N/A
3. My bill doesn't break out where the taxes come from but since $1.05 is 7% of $15 so I assume I pay tax on the rental for a total of $16.05. There is a discussion of rent vs buy on another thread but I feel avoiding an argument over whose equipment is the problem is worth the $16.05.
