like Microsoft with Windows 7 Comcast has phased out yesterdays modems :(

Like Microsoft,  Comcast has phased out routers a few years old, I am now forced to buy or rent a new router as of 12/02/2020 
look for my live audio discussion with Comcast on my Linkedin page, just google "TruckerTwotimes" that's me.
I would love to correspond with others on this subject matter, Blessings  TruckerTwotimes™

    It's up to ISP to approve, allow and to phase out older modems when they become unsupported or not serviceable to there networks. So users need to be sure before users buy there own modems to check wth the ISP to see if it's supported and if any duration of service for user bought modems. 

     

    Good Luck.
