One should be careful if buying used modems from someone, charity outlets, or from sites like eBay. Many times, they wind up being listed in Comcast's database as having been stolen / unreturned, and they won't provision them for service. To be safe, buy only brand new modems in their original packaging from reputable retailers. Good luck !
Thank you for posting on our community forums, user_wwucw2. I see EG offered some information to start with. Were you able to activate the modem? You can also check the device compatibility by visiting us HERE.
Great! Please let us know if there is anything you need help with going forward.
