I am TWC customer, though the device is the same as the one they have in their inventory, for some odd reason it doesn't support thier VOIP. I just happened to go to their customer service in my city and brought up the question again. She told me to keep my device for my network and ask them for a free modem for your phone. I don't know if the same applies to Comcast.I hope this will help. Happy New Year.

It will with no problems. You don't need a new modem. I have Comcast's older modem with of course a router and it works perfectly. Comcast sounds like they are trying to make you pay more money for a newer modem which is not necessary.

You do not need a land line. I dont have one and it works fine. I can even fax by scanning my document and subscribing to a digital fax service.

We have our phone service thru Comcast (VoIP) and it works fine. Handsets are available but you have check with sellers.

Absolutely - you don't need a landline to use this phone - but the answering system and missed call indicator only work with landline - so if you connect it to your cell phone via bluetooth - you'll have to check the cell phone itself for voice mail.

If Comcast uses cable signal (with a coax connection), then no. This is for DSL; so it needs a landline-type connection - though you don't usually need a landline account. We used it with AT&T dsl. And yes, it is a modem and router all in one. Takes in the signal and pushes it out too. :-)

Not sure if it will dial out. I don't have mine connected to a land line. Mine is set up using wifi.

Hi Leslie, this product is for those who wish to use their cellphone as their land line - meaning you will be able to pick up your home phone and dial with it via your cellphone or receive calls. Say you left your cellphone downstairs and it's ringing - you will be able to pick up the call from the nearest phone in your home. I don't have any land line subscriptions and I have an unlimited talk and text packet on my cell so I use it for just that. I dont see the benefit of connecting it to Basic Talk as it a VOIP provider that replaces your Comcast.

It will work fine with Comcast. It's a great phone. If the FBI is looking for you, they will get you.

It will not work with a cell phone. It will not work with the handeset of a cordless phone connected to a landline. It will work when it is plugged into a phone jack on the wall and then into a corded phone or the base of a cordless landline phone. It must also be an "analog" phone, which means that Internet services (VOIP) like Vonage and Comcast Digital Voice will not work. If you have basically the kind of phone service you had it 1980, it will work fine. I also note that when you are programming it, even with the base of a cordless phone, the phone must be "off the hook" while programming. So if you have a cordless phone you need to hear the dial tone while you program the numbers. Finally, note that if you unplug the unit from the phone line, it will lose all the numbers and they will need to be re-entered. It has no battery backup of any sort. But how often does you phone line go dead? Not often for me, so it seems to be an acceptable limitation for me.

I am sorry, we have a land line so I dont know if it would work without one. It might be worth calling them and asking them. The calls are in the US and answered promptly. I bought this for my husband who at first didnt want it. But once we got it set up, he saw how quickly they responded and how polite and helpful each representative was, my husband quickly changed his mind and was happy to have it. We did 3 test runs at different places in the house and in the yard and each time the call was answered in less than a minute. It is a wonderful product and has given me peace of mind.

No, I have a Comcast modem and it works fine, I don't know about cell phones, but yes to VOIP.. If you get a dial tone it shouldwork.

Edward,It sounds like you purchased an adequate piece of equipment, but I'd like to know what kind of Internet phone you have - is it a home/landline phone designed to work with VoIP? Those phones would most likely be able to connect directly into a modem/router via Ethernet (RJ45) cable, rather than a standard phone cable.Get back to me with some more details, and I'll try to help you out.EDIT: just saw where Alberto answered this already. If you use a landline a good bit, I would keep it and just search for another router.

It connects to landline. You could use majic jack or similar product if you have wi fi available. Otherwise you're better off spending the extra to get a system that uses cellular dialer, althoigh then you get charged a monthly fee for service.

I'm currently not using it for a Landline phone. However the ARRIS Gateway modem performs great for my internet usage.
