Re: Does Comcast $7/mo modem include WiFi said by andyross:If you want Comcast phone, then you mostly have to rent and use an eMTA. You can sometimes buy one, but only at full retail from certain Best Buy stores.
If you only want HSI, you are probably best off buying your own modem.
What's an eMTA?
Best off is one thing - but most consumers won't do anything aside from the default, taking equipment from the provider. I'm trying to understand what that equipment IS.

What's an eMTA? It's a modem that also handles cable phone service. Supposedly, due to 911 regulations (Comcast says), only approved devices can be connected to their system.
