Comcast already made it very nearly impossible to buy your own ATA for phone. I figured out how to do it. You had to go IN PERSON to a Best Buy with an Xfinity center (there was one about an hour away in my state). There you would pay and place your order. You would have to return in person to pick it up, then setup a provisioning appointment. As far as I could tell, aside from having an insider this was the only way they would allow you to provision your own device.
Oh yeah, and if it breaks you're out the cost.
- strictnein 8y agoThey list a number of them on their website that you can buy. https://mydeviceinfo.xfinity.com/ https://mydeviceinfo.xfinity.com/ If you want 1Gbps and phone service, they support one device: Netgear CM1150V If you're ~400Mbps, they support four more devices: ARRIS SBV3202 Netgear C7100V Motorola MT7711 ARRIS SVG248AC
