Comcast is more than willing to allow you to have your own cable modem and will even assist you in setting it up. I did this recently when I drop phone service they were providing and no longer needed their special modem. So seven dollars a month charged for it became zero with my spending less than eighty dollars and ten minutes on the phone with their tech support.
My concern with their plan besides being opt-out is, who is liable for misuse of the signal?

I bought two modems, on the advice of CSRs, and when I tried to activate them I was told I couldn't. Only after the second, was I told the real reason. (For the first, I was told the modem was the wrong model and the CSR I spoke with gave me incorrect information.)
