| reply to MattG Re: Want to use my own modem - which one and where to buy?
Given the fact that there is no way to avoid the rental fee with Comcast's phone service, I opted to have my own cablemodem for internet service and use the new T-Mobile @Home service for my home phone. I bought the T-Mobile supplied Linksys router for $50 and it provides the phone connection (have a DECT 6.0 multi-handset system connected to it) and it works beautifully. For $9.95 per month added to my T-Mobile cellphone plan. And the equipment is all mine, no rental fees. -- *************** I think computer viruses should count as life.
