Any idea if this works on a Comcast business account? I have one of those and a spare modem lying around, but I haven't tried it.

- newman314 13y agoSorry, no idea. Please report back if you do try this.
- newman314 13y agoAll you should need to provide is the MAC address of the modem. If you do buy a modem off of Craigslist, you need to make sure that the person takes the MAC address off of their Comcast account. Else, Comcast will not permit you to add the modem to your account, "for security purposes". For what security purpose this serves, I have no idea.
- markkanof 13y agoYes, I did this with a Comcast business account. The initial tech person I spoke to on the phone was very willing to help me but seemed confused about what number he needed from the new modem. He said someone would call me back to continue working on it. To my surprise I got a call the next morning saying it should be all set, and sure enough it was. Works great now, and I typically get faster speeds than I pay for.
