you may want to double check with Xfinity.
at some point of time, they were selling extra public IP for $5-10/month.
you can always go for business connection with multiple IPs with CM700 (although it will NOT be STATIC IP).

They sold me, just a week and half ago adding 4 IPs for $9.95 a month. Problem I had was it took 6 phone calls and I couldn't find out how to set it up and somehow I got a customer sat call back and that guy was able to help me.
All you do is plug in the new cable modem and activate it to your account. What can make it tricky is if you have used that cable modem prior and the mac is on record with your account.

yes, this is special case and you need them to manually add extra IPs.
I dont think it will be done via self-activation system.
thanks for your response. glad you worked it out.
