Yep - reconfigured as a bridge, went back to previous setup, and all seems to work fine.

I've not run accross anyone who got readyshare working from an R7000 in AP mode, including myself. I use 2 R7000, one as main router, one as AP. Readyshare works fine on the main R7000, not so much on the AP one.
I would suggest you get comcast to set their modem/router to bridge mode (turns off the built in router and makes it just a modem) and then rerturn to using your R7000 as the main router. The R7000 is a much better router than anything your likely to get from a cable company.
