You can plug your service speed in, and it'll show you the minimal<br>
equipment needed.<br>
<br>
I'd get the Motorola/Arris SB6141, they're reasonably priced ($90) and<br>
will support all but the highest speed tiers (ie >=250Mbps). The 6121<br>
($70 new) is cheaper but maxes out at 100Mbps.<br>
<br>
One caveat, if you're a business class customer and want static IPs, you<br>
*must* rent a modem from Comcast. (Go ahead, ask me how I learned this.<br>
sigh..)<br>
