Planning to replaced my leased Comcast gateway/modem with a purchased one.Found the same model as my leased gateway(Arris TG862G-CT) for $90 at Dontleaseyourmodem.com
I think the gateway is used/reconditioned.
Has anyone used this company to purchase a Comcast gateway?
Also looking for recommendations for any other gateways that I can purchase.
Than you.

Go to the above web page and look for one that suits you. Then try Amazon if you want to buy online. Best Buy will also have compatible modem/routers if you want to buy from a brick and mortar store.
After you have installed your new modem/router then please, PLEASE password protect your wifi and change the admin user name and password!

You may also want to keep in mind if you have telephone service with comcast. if so you will require a certiant model. I purchased mine thru amazon when I lived in VA. And brought it down with me and do not have to pay the monthly rental fee.

Purchased this modem at Walmart for $129.
Arris/Motorola SBG6580 (Retail)
No problem to setup with Comcast.Returned my Comcast modem and told them I was not happy with my monthly cost.It was $39 a month with the modem but went up to $75 a month after I took the service off the vacation plan.They gave me a no contract rate of $35 a month with my owned modem.
I am Happy.
When I return to PA in April I will cancel my service and sign up upon my return in Sept for a Promo rate with Tom,the audio video guy here on TTOV.

Make sure Comcast does not charge for a rental modem after buying one. We owned ours, and when we came off vacation hold, they began charging for a rental. It took about a year to get the rental charges dropped and get a refund.
