[Comcast Equip] Re: Self install cable cardFrom this previous thread: » [Cable Card] Most hassle-free way to provision HDHomeRun cable-csaid by GTFan:Comcast is required to offer self-installs per FCC mandate, you can always pick up a card if they have them in stock or make them ship you one for free if they don't.
And self-installs are usually not that big a deal since the new card rules went into effect last year [2012], pairing is usually a simple 10 minute phone call as mentioned.
Bottom line is there's really no need to pay for a truck roll, if the self-install doesn't work you make them roll a tech for free. On the other hand: » [Cable Card] Cablecard Hell |

Thr trick is finding someone at comcast that actually knows how to pair the card. Not always a easy thing here in the freedom region. |

Cable Cards SIKs are store pickup only. They will not ship one. |

Cable cards should be banned.. Disallowed.. They cause cable bills to sky-rocket. 90% of cable cards are robbing the cable industry blind. |
