This is the reason I have a separate modems for phone service and internet. When we moved into our house in 1997 I had a modem installed for both but soon bought my own internet modem for the internet service. I have since changed the internet modem seeral times for Comcast end of life reasons. however I never needed to replace the modem for phone use although Comcast internet regularly want it replaced because it no longer works for the internet. However Comcast has not changed the way the home phone connects and that modem still worked for it. It finally was replaced due to a Comcast Store contract renewal failure in 2016.

We have been cstomers sincw 1997 and until a xfinity store caused problem we were using a modem that was installed after we moved in here. I used this modem for voice until the store marked it and my owned internet modem destroyed. Now I have a DOCSIS 3.0 modem in the basement that I want to replace. If a modem works for voice I do not care what about the internet speed. That is my problem. I would like to find a modem for one third the cost of the ones listed. David

I precede the internet not to mention WIFI. I have two modems in my house, in the basement for vouce and one onthe second floor for internet. Even though the basement modem was internet end of life for the internet it was still fine for voice. My aim was to buy the cheapest modem that worked with voice and its internet function was of no interest.The max internet speed for the one I purchased is for 260 mpbs but it it comcast certified for voice.

Thank you for that information there are modems that have telephome service. there is a dearth of information available for telepony any more. I still remember the days you had to shut down your internet session to use the phone. I do not know how to make this public, I assumed it was unless I made it private. What iam I missing? David

I am a customer whose was wired before wifi came to Comcast. So our home phome modem is in the basement and the intrnet modem is on the second floor. Due to a xfinity store foul up our original wall mounted small phone modem was replaced by a huge standalone gateway that had the wifi turned off (harder than it should have been), and no intrnet connected. What I want to do is buy a modem for less than $50 that will work with comcast's voice system instead of a DOCSIS 3.1 $160 modem. For all I care it could be a DOCSIS 1.0 internet one if the phone was still compatible. xfinity actual voice service compatibility on this website's list is questioned by sellers. Since most of the information is internet related and not voice I wonder what to buy.
